Sinyallerdeki

Sinyallerdeki is a Turkish grammatical form that functions as a postnominal modifier meaning “the ones in the signals” or, more simply, “in the signals.” It is created by attaching the plural suffix -ler to sinyal (signal) to form sinyaller (signals), then adding the locative suffix -de (in) and the demonstrative/relative suffix -ki, yielding the combined form sinyallerdeki. The sequence specifies elements located within the signals and is used to modify a following noun.

Morphology and usage are typical of Turkish suffixal agglutination. Sinyallerdeki acts as a determiner-like modifier attached to a head noun, so it often appears before the noun it describes, as in sinyallerdeki bozulmalar (distortions in the signals) or sinyallerdeki gürültü (noise in the signals). It is common in technical and scientific Turkish, especially in fields such as signal processing, telecommunications, and data analysis, where precise localization of phenomena within a system is important.

Examples in context:

- Sinyallerdeki gürültü seviyeleri azaltılmalıdır. (The noise levels in the signals should be reduced.)

- Sinyallerdeki bozulmalar, iletişim kalitesini etkiler. (Distortions in the signals affect the quality of communication.)

Etymology and related forms: sinyallerdeki derives from sinyal + -ler + -de + -ki, illustrating Turkish morphology through suffix stacking. Related forms include other -deki compounds formed with different roots, used to indicate location within a set or system.
