enlemlerinde

Enlemlerinde is a Turkish phrase meaning “in its latitudes” or “in the latitudes of,” used to indicate location within a latitudinal range. It is formed from enlem (latitude) plus the plural suffix -ler, the third-person possessive suffix -i (its), and the locative suffix -nde, resulting in enlemlerinde. The construction is common in geographic, climatic, and ecological descriptions where the emphasis is on where something occurs relative to latitude rather than to a specific place.

Grammar and usage

The phrase attaches to a possessive noun that denotes the subject whose latitudes are being referred to. For example, Türkiye’nin enlemlerinde means “in Turkey’s latitudes” or more naturally “in the latitudes of Turkey.” Enlemlerinde can be used to describe climate, vegetation, species distribution, or atmospheric phenomena tied to latitudinal bands. It is typically found in written Turkish, especially in geographic or scientific texts, as well as in formal descriptions of regional patterns.

Bu türler, enlemlerinde yaşayan ekosistemler açısından farklı adaptasyonlar geliştirir. (These species develop different adaptations with respect to the latitudinal ranges.)
