kahvesinin

Kahvesinin is a Turkish inflected form derived from kahve, meaning coffee. It is formed by attaching two suffixes: the third-person possessive suffix -si to yield kahvesi (its coffee, his/her coffee), followed by the genitive suffix -in, producing kahvesinin. The combination translates roughly as “of its coffee” or “the coffee’s,” depending on context. This is a typical example of Turkish noun phrase morphology, where possession and connection between nouns are expressed through suffix chains.

In usage, kahvesinin appears in phrases that describe relationships of possession or belonging. It can be followed by another noun or adjective to form a complete possessive noun phrase, such as kahvesinin tadı (the taste of its coffee) or kahvesinin fincanı (the cup of its coffee). The exact possessor is determined by the surrounding discourse; kahvesinin itself does not identify a specific owner without context.

Examples:

- Kahvesinin tadı beklediğimden daha acıydı. The taste of its coffee was more bitter than I expected.

- Kahvesinin fincanı kırıldı. Its coffee’s cup broke.

Notes:

Turkish uses vowel harmony to select the appropriate vowel in suffixes. In kahvesinin, the suffixes align with the stem kahve and the possessive/genitive sequence results in the form “kahvesinin.” The form is primarily grammatical and appears within sentences to indicate relationships of ownership or association involving coffee.
