Konforunu

Konforunu is a Turkish grammatical form that translates to “your comfort” when used as a direct object. It is not a separate lexical item but an inflected phrase formed by combining the noun konfor (comfort) with suffixes that mark possession and case. The result shows both the second-person singular possessive and the accusative case, illustrating Turkish’s agglutinative structure.

Morphology and formation: The base noun konfor takes the second-person singular possessive suffix -un, producing konforun (“your comfort”). To mark the noun as the direct object, the accusative suffix -u is added, yielding konforunu. The exact suffix shapes can vary in Turkish to match vowel harmony, but the general pattern remains: noun + second-person possessive + accusative. The sequence of suffixes is typically possessive first, then case.

Usage: Konforunu appears in sentences where the action centers on the addressee’s comfort. It can be used with or without an explicit subject pronoun, depending on emphasis. Examples:

- Bu koltuğun konforunu artırmak için minderler ekledik. (We added cushions to increase the comfort of this chair.)

- Senin konforunu düşünmek bizim önceliğimizdir. (Thinking about your comfort is our priority.)

- Sizin konforunuzu bozacak herhangi bir şey yapmayacağız. (We will not do anything that would ruin your comfort.)

Notes: Konforunu illustrates how Turkish builds a possessive phrase and marks it as the object within a single word. The form changes with different persons or cases, but konforunu specifically encodes “your (possessive) + its (accusative)” in one cluster.
