Uygulamas

Uygulamas is a form most often encountered in Turkish as part of inflected phrases rather than as an independent word. The base word is uygulama, which has several related meanings: an application or program, the act of applying something or putting a rule into practice, and a practical example or demonstration. The sequence uygulamas typically appears as part of a larger word such as uygulamasını (its application, object form) or uygulamasında (in its application). As a standalone lexical entry, uygulamas is not common in standard Turkish.

The etymology traces to the verb uygulamak, meaning to apply or to implement. The noun form uygulama is created with the nominalizing suffix -ma, and Turkish morphology then attaches possessive or case endings to yield forms like uygulamanın, uygulamanı, uygulanması, and so forth. This pattern allows speakers to express ownership, direct objects, or locations related to the application or its use.

In contemporary Turkish, uygulama is widely used in technology and everyday language. In computing and digital contexts, it refers to software programs and mobile or web applications, for example mobil uygulama (mobile application) or web uygulaması (web application). Outside of software, it denotes the act of applying a rule, policy, or method in practice, such as politikanın uygulanması (the implementation of the policy) or bir yönteminin uygulanması (the application of a method).

Typical synonyms include yazılım for software in a broader sense and uygulama of policy for practical implementation. The word is foundational in discussions of technology, education, and administrative practice.
