Feyza with Turkish suffixes
Turkish adds case endings where English uses prepositions. With a personal name the ending is separated by anapostrophe (Feyza'ya, Feyza'nın), but it is still pronounced as one word. The apostrophe only marks where the name ends; the suffix itself follows the usual rules.
The last vowel of Feyza is a, a back unrounded vowel. So two-way suffixes take a and four-way suffixes takeı (vowel harmony):Feyza'da, Feyza'yı.
Because Feyza ends in a vowel, a buffer letter keeps two vowels apart:y in Feyza'yı, Feyza'ya and Feyza'yla, and n in the genitive Feyza'nın.
