Can I copy or save the results?

No, there is no copy/save button.

How do I use the Word Derivation Tool?

Type the root word and pick a suffix from the list to see the combined form of the root and suffix. For example, you can start with a root such as “çalış”.

Which kinds of derivational suffixes can I use to create derivatives?

You can explore a word family with noun, verb, adjective and adverb derivational suffixes. Choose the suffix that fits the root from the list to see the derivatives.

Does it apply the consonant softening rule?

Yes; when a root ending in a hard consonant takes a suffix that starts with a vowel, softening is applied. For example, adding the suffix “-(y)ı” to the root “kitap” gives “kitabı”.

Does it take word-specific exceptions into account?

No. The tool is rule-based and simplified, so word-specific exceptions are not covered. For example, the absence of softening in “uç” + “-an” or the vowel drop in “şehir” + “-e” is out of scope.

📖 About Turkish Morphology

Turkish is an agglutinative language — words are formed by attaching suffixes to roots. Each suffix adds one grammatical meaning. Vowel harmony rules determine which vowel variant of a suffix to use (e, i, a, ı / o, u, ö, ü).
