ödemelerini

Ödemelerini is a Turkish noun form that translates to “their payments” and is used to refer to payments belonging to a third party as the direct object of a sentence. It is derived from the base noun ödemeler, meaning payments, through a combination of suffixes that mark plurality, possession, and definiteness in the accusative case.

In Turkish, ödemelerini combines the plural noun ödemeler with possessive and accusative suffixes. The form reflects a possessive plural sense (their) and an accusative ending (the object of the verb). The exact suffix shapes can change with vowel harmony, but the essential meaning remains the same: the payments that belong to others and are being referred to as the direct object in the sentence.

Common uses and contexts include legal, financial, and administrative language where it is necessary to specify payments owned by a group or by others. It often appears in sentences describing obligations, receipts, or actions related to those payments. For example, one might say, Şirket, müşterilerinin ödemelerini zamanında yapmalarını talep etti, meaning the company urged customers to pay on time. Another example could be, Müfettişler, müşterilerin ödemelerini kayıt altına almak için belgeleri inceledi, referring to the act of examining the payments.

Related forms include ödemeler (payments) in plural, and various possessive or dative forms depending on subject, number, and case. Ödemelerini is one of several Turkish inflected forms that illustrate how Turkish encodes ownership and grammatical role within a single word.
