beraber

Beraber is a Turkish adverb meaning "together" or "in the company of others," and it can also indicate simultaneity, as in two events occurring at the same time. It is used in both everyday speech and formal writing to express joint action, shared experience, or companionship.

When used with verbs, beraber marks that the subjects act in concert: “Kahvaltıyı beraber yaptık” (We had breakfast together). “Öğretmenler ve öğrenciler beraber çalışıyorlar” (The teachers and students are working together). It can also describe simultaneity: “İki olay beraber gerçekleşti” (Two events happened at the same time). In many contexts, beraber is close in meaning to “birlikte”; the choice can depend on emphasis or style.

Related forms include “beraberlik,” a noun meaning togetherness or unity, as in “beraberlik duygusu” (a sense of togetherness). Unlike a prefix, beraber functions as a fixed adverb rather than a grammatical prefix.

Notes on usage: while synonyms exist, such as “birlikte,” beraber often stresses participation and cooperation among the people involved. It is used across registers, from casual conversation to formal text, to convey joint action, companionship, or concurrent events.
