Izinlerinin

Izinlerinin is a Turkish noun phrase meaning “their permissions” or “the permissions of them.” The base noun izin means permission, consent, or leave (from work). The form the word takes—izinlerinin—results from Turkish suffixes that mark number and possession: izin rightfully becomes izinler (permissions) when plural, and the third-person plural possessive/genitive suffix -lerinin attaches to that plural form to indicate ownership by a group (they/them). In Turkish, possessive suffixes follow the noun (and any plural suffix) to express “of” or “their.” The full form izinlerinin thus functions as the genitive/possessive construction in which something belongs to or is associated with multiple people.

Usage examples illustrate its meaning in context. Çalışanların izinlerinin süresi doldu translates to “The duration of the employees’ leave has expired.” İzinlerinin iptal edilmesi gerektiğini söylediler means “They said the cancellation of their permissions is necessary.” The exact translation depends on context, but the core idea is possession by a plural subject.

Notes and related forms. In Turkish, izin can denote either leave (time off) or permission to do something, so izinlerinin sense is determined by surrounding words. Etymologically, izin is a loanword from Arabic izin. For further reference, see Turkish possessive suffixes (such as -im, -in, -i, -imiz, -iniz, -ileri) and the plural suffix -ler/-lar, as well as general rules for noun phrases and genitive constructions.
