kliniklerinde

Kliniklerinde is a Turkish phrase meaning in their clinics or in clinics. It is a locative possessive form built from the noun klinik (clinic). The construction follows Turkish suffix order: klinikler (clinics) plus the third-person plural possessive suffix leri to form kliniklerİ (their clinics), followed by the locative suffix nde, resulting in kliniklerinde, which expresses location inside those clinics. Turkish is an agglutinative language, and such suffix chains change the whole word meaning through a fixed sequence of endings.

Usage and nuance: Kliniklerinde is used when discussing actions or states occurring inside clinics owned or controlled by a group referred to earlier in the sentence, such as doctors, an institution, or a set of professionals. It can refer to the clinics of multiple people or entities, depending on context. The phrase can be replaced with related forms to reflect different possessors or numbers, for example kliniklerimde (in my clinics) or hastanenin kliniklerinde (in the hospital’s clinics).

Examples:

- Doktorlar kliniklerinde çalışıyor. (The doctors work in their clinics.)

- Kurumun kliniklerinde yeni ekipman kuruldu. (New equipment was installed in the institution’s clinics.)

- Hastanenin kliniklerinde hasta bakımı iyileştirildi. (Patient care was improved in the hospital’s clinics.)
