Seni

Seni is a term that appears in several languages with different meanings, most notably in Indonesian and Turkish. As a linguistic unit, its interpretation depends on the language context.

In Indonesian and Malay, seni means art or the arts. It denotes the broad field of human cultural expression and can be found in compound terms such as seni rupa (visual arts), seni musik (musical arts), and seni tari (dance). The word can refer to art as an activity, a discipline, or a cultural tradition, and it is commonly used in education, media, and cultural discourse.

In Turkish, seni is the second-person singular pronoun sen in its accusative form, meaning “you” when used as the direct object. It appears in sentences like Səni seviyorum (I love you) and Səni gördüm (I saw you). Turkish uses pronouns in a way that makes the form change with case, so seni functions specifically as the object form of sen.

As a proper noun, Seni can appear as a given name or surname in various cultures, and it may also occur in place names or organizational titles depending on local language conventions. Because its meaning and usage vary by language, the word’s interpretation is best determined from the surrounding linguistic context.
