Yazlmas

Yazlmas is a term that appears in some Turkish linguistic discussions as a nominalized form derived from the verb yazmak, meaning "to write." In standard Turkish, the common noun for the act of writing is yazılma, and yazı can denote a text or writing in general. Yazlmas is not widely attested in major dictionaries and is generally described as nonstandard, dialectal, or archaic. The form would be analyzed as a nominalization built with the root yaz- plus the -ıl- suffix and the -mas/-ma nominalization, but its exact historical derivation is unclear and it may reflect a regional spelling variant or a typographical irregularity.

In usage, yazlmas would be encountered primarily in linguistic discussions illustrating irregular nominalizations or in older texts; it is not common in contemporary Turkish prose. When meaning "the act of writing" is intended in modern Turkish, writers typically use yazılma or yazım, depending on the sense (process vs. orthography). Some language resources may gloss yazlmas as a variant of yazılma, without asserting broad acceptance.
