Analizi

Analizi is the Turkish definite direct object form of analiz, the noun for “analysis.” In Turkish, the definite direct object is marked by the suffix -i, which harmonizes with the preceding vowel. As a result, analiz becomes analizi. This form is used when the speaker and listener know which analysis is being referred to, for example in sentences like Bu analizi gördüm (“I saw this analysis”).

Etymology and origin: The Turkish noun analiz is a loanword common in scientific and academic Turkish. It is generally traced to Western European languages, with influences from French analyse or English analysis, and ultimately derives from the Greek word analusis, formed from ana- (up, again) and lysis (loosening). The Turkish ending -i attaches to form analizi, the definite direct object.

Usage and context: Analizi appears primarily in academic, scientific, technical, and data-related discourse. It occurs in phrases such as veri analizi (data analysis), istatistik analizi (statistical analysis), and analizin sonuçları (the results of the analysis). The related verb analize etmek or analiz etmek means “to analyze,” and its various forms are used to discuss performing or reporting analyses. As a grammatical form, analizi functions as the object of verbs and can be combined with possessive suffixes, giving forms like analiziniz (“your analysis”) or analizin (“your analysis” in a different syntactic role).
