kesintisi

Kesintisi is a Turkish term derived from kesinti, which broadly means interruption, outage, or deduction. The form kesintisi embodies the third-person possessive construction, roughly translating to “its interruption” or, more generally, “the interruption of something.” It also functions as a noun phrase referring to the interruption itself, and it appears in dictionaries and usage as a derivative form of kesinti.

Common uses of kesintisi span several domains. In everyday language, kesinti covers interruptions in services, broadcasts, or utilities, as well as deductions in finances. The possessive form kesintisi appears in constructions such as elektrik kesintisinin nedeni (the reason for the electricity outage) or daha genel ifadelerde kesintinin etkisi (the impact of the interruption). While kesinti is often used alone to name a type of interruption, kesintisi situates the phrase as “the interruption belonging to” or “the interruption of” a specific thing when used with the appropriate possessive or genitive context.

Etymology and grammar: kesintisi comes from kesinti, which derives from kesmek, meaning “to cut.” The suffix -inti nominalizes the verb, and the suffix -si adds possessive meaning on the noun, yielding forms like kesintisi, kesintisinin, and so on. This morphological pattern is typical in Turkish for indicating possession or attribution of an action or event described by the root noun.
