Gözlemle

Gözlemle is the imperative form of the Turkish verb gözlemek, which means to observe, monitor, or study. It is used to issue a direct command to someone to observe or monitor something. The infinitive is gözlemek, derived from the noun gözlem (observation) with the verb-forming suffix -lemek. The imperative for the second person singular is gözlemle; for polite address or plural you use gözlemleyin. The negative imperative is gözlemleme (don’t observe).

In usage, gözlemle appears in instructions, field notes, scientific writing, and educational contexts where a specific observation is required. It conveys a directive sense rather than casual looking, and is often paired with verbs such as kaydet (record), incele (examine), or analiz et (analyze) in phrases like gözlemle verileri kaydet or gözlemle olayları incele.

Related forms include gözlem (observation, noun), gözlemci (observer), and gözlemsel (observational). Etymologically, gözlem is the noun for observation, and gözlemek is the corresponding verb meaning to observe.

Examples:

- Gözlemle bu deneyin sonucunu kaydet.

- Lütfen gözlemleyin ve bulguları rapor edin.

Gözlemle represents one of the imperative moods in Turkish, with exact form determined by person and formality. In formal or plural address, gözlemleyin is preferred.
