Toplumlarndan

Toplumlarndan is a Turkish noun phrase that corresponds to the ablative plural meaning “from the societies.” It is formed by taking the noun top­lum (society), adding the plural suffix -lar to yield toplumlar (societies), and then attaching the ablative suffix -dan to indicate origin or source. In standard Turkish orthography, the usual form for this meaning is top​lumlardan. The sequence of suffixes reflects Turkish’s agglutinative structure, where plurality and case are appended in a fixed order.

In practice, top­lumlardan is used to refer to a source coming from multiple societies. For example, Toplumlardan elde edilen veriler çalışmanın temel bulgularını oluşturdu means “The data obtained from the societies formed the core findings of the study.” If one intends to express “from their societies” specifically, the possessive marker would be inserted before the ablative suffix, producing form variants such as toplumlarından; this marks possession (their societies) before indicating origin.

Notes and variants:

- The standard form for “from the societies” is toplumlardan.

- The form toplumlarından explicitly encodes possession (their societies) before the ablative meaning.

- The exact spelling toplumlarndan is uncommon in formal Turkish and is typically considered nonstandard or a mistaken variant of toplumlardan or toplumlarından, depending on dialect or transcription.
