örnek

örnek is a Turkish noun meaning "example," "sample," or "model." It denotes a representative instance used to illustrate a rule, pattern, or concept. In English, it is commonly translated as "example" or "sample." The word is native to Turkish and is widely used across formal and informal registers.

In Turkish usage, örnek appears in a variety of fixed expressions and collocations. Common phrases include örnek olarak (as an example), örnek vermek or örnek göstermek (to give or show an example), örnek almak (to take as an example), and örnek teşkil etmek (to serve as an example or model). The term also appears in educational and professional contexts, such as örnek olay (case study) and örnek uygulama (model or exemplary implementation). The plural form is örnekler, and the definite singular form is örneği (the example).

Grammar and morphology follow standard Turkish patterns. Noun forms attach possessive, plural, and case suffixes as usual, producing forms like örneğin (for example), örneğinler (rare in practice), and örneği (the example). The word can function in noun phrases, clauses, or as part of idiomatic constructions that emphasize exemplarity or standard.

Etymology is generally described as Turkish in origin, with the word functioning as a core part of the language’s vocabulary for describing instances used to illustrate, instruct, or compare. In everyday use, örnek remains a common and essential term for conveying guidance, demonstration, or modelling in Turkish discourse.
