rolün

rolün is a Turkish term formed as the second-person singular possessive form of rol, the word for "role." The noun rol is a loanword borrowed from English role, and Turkish builds possessive forms by adding suffixes to the base word. The base ro l takes the possessive suffix -ün to produce rolün, meaning "your role." The corresponding plural or formal form is rolünüz, meaning "your (plural or formal) role." Other possessive forms include rolüm meaning "my role" and rolü meaning "his/her/its role."

In usage, rolün appears in sentences that refer to a person’s function or character within a given context. For example: "Senin rolün nedir?" translates to "What is your role?" and "Bu projede rolünüz nedir?" translates to "What is your role in this project?" The term is common across workplace, theatre, film, and discussions of social roles, reflecting how Turkish has integrated the English concept of a role into everyday vocabulary.

Etymology and related forms: The word rol is a Turkish adaptation of the English "role." Turkish grammar regularly forms possessives with suffixes, so rolün, rolünüz, rolüm, and rolü illustrate how meaning shifts with person and number. This pattern is typical for many common nouns in Turkish and demonstrates the language’s flexible use of loanwords within its agglutinative morphology.
