Önerinin

Önerinin is the genitive form of the Turkish noun öneri, meaning a recommendation, proposal, or suggestion. In Turkish, the genitive case marks a relationship of possession or association between two nouns, roughly translating to “of the …” in English or indicating ownership or attribution. The form önerinin is used to indicate that something belongs to or relates to a recommendation, such as its content, purpose, or origin.

Morphology and formation: Turkish forms the genitive by attaching a suffix to the end of a noun. The suffix varies by the last vowel of the word, commonly rendered as -ın, -in, -un, or -ün. For öneri, the resulting genitive form is written as önerinin, reflecting the front vowel i. This form is then combined with another noun to create a possessive or relational noun phrase, often without an intervening article. For example, önerinin amacı means “the purpose of the recommendation,” and önerinin içeriği means “the content of the recommendation.”

Usage notes: The genitive construction is widespread in Turkish formal and written language, including academic, legal, and policy texts. It is not a separate word with independent meaning; rather, önerinin functions as a determiner that links a following noun to the concept of the recommendation. The structure allows concise expression of relationships such as purpose, content, effect, or authority related to a recommendation.
