randevuyu

Randevuyu is the Turkish language form of the noun randevu in the definite accusative case, used to refer to a specific appointment or date as a direct object in a sentence. The base noun randevu comes from the French rendez-vous, meaning an appointment or meeting; Turkish borrowed it in the late Ottoman period and adapted it with Turkish phonology and suffixes.

In Turkish, such nouns take suffixes to denote case and definiteness; randevuyu translates as "the appointment" or "the date" as a definite direct object. It appears in phrases like randevuyu almak (to obtain or secure an appointment), randevuyu iptal etmek (to cancel the appointment), and randevuyu bozmak (to break a date). For example: Randevuyu ertelediler. They postponed the appointment. Randevuyu unuttum. I forgot the appointment.

The form illustrates Turkish definiteness marking on the direct object and is commonly used in everyday speech and writing. It is one among several Turkish loanwords for social arrangements that have integrated into ordinary usage, often appearing in scheduling, communications, and media references.
