Calismalarinda

Calismalarinda, properly spelled as çalışmalarında, is a Turkish locative phrase meaning “in their studies” or more broadly “in their work/research,” depending on context. It is formed from the noun çalışma (study, effort) in its plural form çalışmalar, then the possessive suffix -ları (their), and finally the locative suffix -nda/ -nde to indicate position. The result üns with the combination that Turkish orthography renders as çalışmalarında. When diacritics are omitted, the form appears as calismalarinda.

Morphology and usage basics: Turkish tends to stack affixes in a fixed order, and çalışmalarıında reflects that pattern by combining plurality, possession, and location into a single word. The exact possessor (singular or plural) is usually inferred from surrounding context, as Turkish often encodes ownership through the suffix chain rather than separate words.

Common contexts: The phrase is frequently used in academic writing, biographies, and research reports to specify the setting of findings or actions. It can introduce a clause about what is studied, researched, or produced within a certain body of work. For example, sentences such as “Çalışmalarında kullanılan yöntemler güvenilirdir” or “Çalışmalarında elde ettiği sonuçlar olumlu çıktı” illustrate how the phrase anchors statements to the subject’s body of work or studies.

Variants and related forms: Other related phrases include çalışmalarında geçen veya çalışmalarında bulunan, which adjust the nuance by focusing on content or presence within the studies. Turkish allows various suffix combinations to express different relations (subject, object, direction) while keeping the core sense of location within studies or research.
