seçilimini

Seçilimini is a Turkish term that refers to the act or result of being elected or selected. It is related to the noun sẽçilim and to the more common sēçim (election), and it tends to appear in formal, legal, or political contexts to describe a process or outcome of selection.

Etymology and form: the word is built from the verb sēçmek (to choose) or from the passive stem sēçil- and is combined with Turkish nominal suffixes to express case, definiteness, and possession. In this sense, seçilim and its inflected form seçilimini denote the concept of election or the act of being chosen, with seçilimini representing a specific inflected form used in sentences to mark its role as an object or complement within a clause.

Usage and context: in contemporary Turkish, the standard noun for the act of choosing in a broad sense is seçim. Seçilimini is less common and tends to appear in more specialized, historical, or literary registers, or in longer noun phrases such as bir adayın seçilimini etkileyen faktörler (the factors affecting a candidate’s election). Its exact syntactic function can vary with context, reflecting Turkish morphology where suffixes attach to a root to convey nuance about possession, case, or definiteness.
