Matematiksel

Matematiksel is a Turkish adjective meaning related to mathematics. It is used to describe ideas, methods, or objects that belong to or are derived from the discipline of mathematics. The word is formed from matematik (mathematics) and the suffix -sel, which yields a descriptor indicating relation or property.

Common usages include matematiksel model (mathematical model), matematiksel analiz (mathematical analysis), and matematiksel kanıt (mathematical proof). The adjective generally precedes the noun it modifies, as in matematiksel sonuç or matematiksel yöntem. The adverbial form is matematiksel olarak, meaning "mathematically."

In Turkish academic and scientific writing, matematiksel describes theoretical and formal aspects of problems and methods, rather than everyday numerical calculations; however, calculations that rely on mathematical principles are frequently presented within a matematiksel framework.

Etymology and related terms: The term is part of a broader international family of words derived from mathematics. The root matematik is borrowed from the French mathématique and ultimately from Greek mathēmatikós; cognate forms exist in other languages, reflecting shared mathematical terminology.
