Etkilenmesine

Etkilenmesine is a Turkish verbal-nominal form derived from the verb etmekilmek? Actually from etkilenmek, meaning to be affected or influenced. The suffix -mesine attaches to the verb stem to create a noun-like clause that expresses the act of being affected or the state of being influenced. In Turkish, this form is used to nominalize a verb and to connect it to other words with postpositions or determiners, often indicating relation, purpose, or causation within a sentence.

Morphology and usage notes: The base is etkilenmek (to be affected). The participial-nominal form etkilenmesi means “the being affected” or “the act of being affected.” When the suffix -e is added as in -mesine, the phrase can function as a noun phrase that refers to the act or possibility of being affected and can take modifiers and case-like elements such as dair (about/relating to), ilişkin (related to), or neden olan (causing). The construction is common in formal, academic, and journalistic Turkish to discuss effects, impacts, or conditions.

Examples:

- İklim değişikliğinin etkilenmesine ilişkin veriler toplandı. (Data relating to being affected by climate change were collected.)

- Krizin etkilenmesine yol açan faktörler analiz edildi. (Factors that led to the population’s being affected were analyzed.)

- Etkilenmesine dair raporlar, sağlık politikalarını etkilemiştir. (Reports about being affected have influenced health policies.)

In summary, etkilenmesine is a formal Turkish noun-like form used to refer to the act or state of being affected, functioning within sentences to discuss impacts, relations, or causes in an abstract or analytical way. See also Turkish verbal nouns, -me/-ma suffixes, and relative clauses.
