politikasini

Politikasini is a Turkish grammatical form that functions as the direct object of a verb, roughly translating to “his/her/its policy” in English when the policy is being acted upon. It is built from the noun politika (policy) with the third-person possessive suffix -sı, yielding politikası, and then the accusative suffix -nı, producing politikası-nı, which in modern Turkish is written as politikasını. The exact spelling follows Turkish vowel harmony and orthography, and variants can occur with different suffix combinations.

Usage and examples

Politikasını is commonly used when referring to a single policy as the object of an action. For example: Onun politikasını değiştirmek istiyorum. (I want to change his/her policy.) Another example with plural referents: Partinin politikalarını eleştirdi. (He criticized the party’s policies.) These forms illustrate how Turkish stacks possessive and accusative suffixes onto the base noun to express ownership and grammatical role within the sentence.

Relation to grammar

Politikasini illustrates several Turkish morphology features: noun formation from politika, possession with -sı for third-person ownership, and the accusative case with -nı (or its vowel-harmonized variant). The form is part of standard noun phrase construction in Turkish and is one of the many common combinations used to mark objects in verbs.
