Necati with Turkish suffixes
Turkish adds case endings where English uses prepositions. With a personal name the ending is separated by anapostrophe (Necati'ye, Necati'nin), 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 Necati is i, a front unrounded vowel. So two-way suffixes take e and four-way suffixes takei (vowel harmony):Necati'de, Necati'yi.
Because Necati ends in a vowel, a buffer letter keeps two vowels apart:y in Necati'yi, Necati'ye and Necati'yle, and n in the genitive Necati'nin.
