Bahçesi

Bahçesi is a Turkish noun phrase meaning “its garden” or “the garden of someone/ something.” It is formed from the noun bahçe (garden) plus the third-person singular possessive suffix -si, with vowel harmony producing bahçesi. The possessor is usually specified by another noun in the genitive case or by a possessive pronoun; for example, evin bahçesi means “the house’s garden,” kedinin bahçesi means “the cat’s garden.”

In contexts where the possessor is clear from discourse, bahçesi can stand alone as “its garden.” It functions within noun phrases and can appear as the subject or object of a sentence when accompanied by surrounding possessive or demonstrative elements.

Examples:

- Evin bahçesi çok güzel. The house’s garden is very beautiful.

- Bahçesi bakımlı olan bir ev arıyorum. I am looking for a house whose garden is well-kept.

- Kedinin bahçesi küçük ama sevimli. The cat’s garden is small but charming.

Notes:

The form illustrates Turkish possessive morphology; other possessive forms and genitive constructions are used to specify the exact possessor. Bahçesi is closely related to bahçe and to the broader system of Turkish possessive suffixes.
