Birikimlerini

Birikimlerini is a Turkish inflected form derived from birikim, meaning accumulation, savings, or stock. The form birikimlerini is used to refer to “their accumulations” or “their savings” when the noun is functioning as the direct object in a sentence. It is a grammatical form rather than a standalone lexical entry.

Etymology and structure: birikim comes from the Turkish root birik- with the noun-forming suffix -im. To express plurality and possession, Turkish adds the plural suffix -ler to form birikimler (accumulations) and then attaches the possessive and case suffixes that indicate third-person plural ownership and the accusative case. The result is birikimlerini, typically translated as “their accumulations” or “their savings” in English when used as the object of a verb.

Usage: Birikimlerini often appears in contexts about personal finance, budgeting, or resource management. Examples include: “Birikimlerini artırdılar” (They increased their savings), “Birikimlerini nasıl kullanacaklarını bilmiyorlar” (They don’t know how they will use their savings). The form emphasizes ownership by multiple people and marks the object of the action.

See also: birikim, bütçe, tasarruf. Turkish learners may encounter birikimlerini in articles or discourse on finance, retirement planning, or economic discussions, where possessive and accusative forms convey who owns the savings and their role as the object of an action.
