öneriniz

öneriniz is a Turkish noun phrase meaning “your recommendation” or “your suggestion.” It is derived from öneri, which means a proposal, suggestion, or piece of advice offered for consideration. The form öneriniz specifically marks the second-person plural or formal you, indicating that the recommendation belongs to the person or people being addressed.

Grammatically, öneri is formed from the verb ön-er- (to suggest or to recommend) with the noun-forming suffix -i. The possessive suffix -iniz attaches to create öneriniz, i.e., “your (plural/formal) recommendation.” In informal singular address, the corresponding form is önerin (“your recommendation” informal).

Usage notes and examples: Bu konuda sizin öneriniz nedir? (What is your recommendation on this matter?) Bu raporu inceledikten sonra öneriniz varsa bizimle paylaşın. (Please share any recommendations you have after reviewing this report.) Toplantıda herkes kendi önerisini sunacak; sizin öneriniz dikkate alınacaktır. (At the meeting, everyone will present their suggestion; yours will be considered.)

Nuances: Öneri tends to be used in formal, official, or analytical contexts such as business, administration, or academic writing. Tavsiye is a closely related term meaning personal advice or guidance and is more common in everyday speech. While related, öneri emphasizes a proposed course of action or plan, whereas tavsiye emphasizes the act of advising.
