hizmetleri

Hizmetleri is a Turkish noun form derived from hizmet, meaning service or duty. The base word hizmetler is the plural form meaning “services,” while hizmetleri is the form that arises when Turkish suffixes mark definiteness or possession. In Turkish sentences, this form can function as “the services” (definite direct object) or as part of a possessed phrase such as “the company’s services,” depending on context.

Etymology and usage. Hizmet itself comes from the Arabic khidmah, adopted into Turkish through historical Ottoman Turkish. In modern Turkish, hizmetler is the standard plural used for services in general, such as public services or service sectors. Hizmetleri appears in contexts where the services are being specified as definite or belonging to someone, for example in phrases meaning “the company’s services” or “its services.” The term is widely used across official, commercial, and everyday language.

Context and relevance. Hizmetler and related phrases appear in discussions about public administration, customer service, welfare programs, and the broader service economy. The term is neutral and polyvalent, encompassing a range of activities that provide help, support, or goods through professional or organized efforts. In Turkish discourse, it is common to distinguish between the broader category of hizmetler (services in general) and specific applications or provider-based expressions, in which Hizmetleri appears as part of a definite or possessed construction.
