xatolari

The suffix -i, when attached to xatolar, creates xatolari, a form that marks possession or association and is commonly interpreted as “its/their mistakes” depending on context. In practical use, xatolari appears in noun phrases describing the mistakes belonging to a person or entity and is frequent in educational, editorial, and linguistic contexts.

Etymology and morphology: xato + lar yields the plural xatolar; adding the possessive suffix -i yields xatolari. This reflects typical Turkic morpheme order: root + number suffix + possessive suffix. The surrounding sentence structure and context determine precisely which possessor is being indicated.

Usage and context: Xatolari occurs across textbooks, newspapers, and language-learning materials whenever errors or mistakes are discussed. It is closely related to xato (singular “mistake”) and xatolik (a more formal term for “error” or “fault”).
