Putusnya

Putusnya is an Indonesian noun formed from the verb putus (to break, sever, or disconnect) with the suffix -nya. The term refers to the event or state of ending, cessation, or interruption of something, and can describe both physical disconnections and more abstract outcomes such as the end of a relationship or a contract. As a nominalized form, putusnya often functions as the subject or object in a sentence and carries a sense of finality or abruptness.

In usage, putusnya can describe various kinds of endings. It may refer to personal relationships, for example the end of a partnership or romance, as in putusnya hubungan. It can also denote outages or disconnections, such as electrical power cuts (putusnya aliran listrik) or a broken cable (putusnya kabel). The word is versatile and commonly appears in news, media, and everyday speech to mark a turning point or abrupt change.

Grammatically, putusnya is flexible: it can be used with verbs indicating completion or occurrence (telah putusnya, sudah putusnya) or appear in constructions emphasizing the event itself. It is distinct from the related adjective putus, which describes the state of being broken, rather than the event of becoming broken.
