eksenin

Eksenin is a Turkish term formed by the noun eksen, meaning axis, together with the second-person possessive suffix -in. The combination yields a possessive noun phrase that can be translated as “your axis.” In Turkish, possessive suffixes attach directly to the noun stem and modify it to indicate ownership, with the specific suffix depending on the possessor.

In usage, eksenin denotes possession by the person being addressed in a sentence. It typically appears as part of a larger noun phrase rather than as a stand-alone referent. Because Turkish relies on context to resolve possessive readings, eksenin can sometimes be interpreted as “your axis” or, in a broader sense, “the axis belonging to you.”

Common contexts for eksenin include technical, mechanical, or metaphorical discussions where an axis is being referenced in relation to the listener. For example, combinations such as eksenin konumu (the position of your axis) or eksenin sapması (the deviation of your axis) illustrate how the form is used to attribute attributes to the possessor.

Notes and related terms: eksen (axis) is the base noun; possessive suffixes in Turkish vary to indicate different possessors (my, your, his/her/its, our, your (plural), their). The form eksenin is one instance of this system and is written as a single word in normal Turkish orthography.
