Nevin with Turkish suffixes

Turkish adds case endings where English uses prepositions. With a personal name the ending is separated by anapostrophe (Nevin'e, Nevin'in), 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 Nevin is i, a front unrounded vowel. So two-way suffixes take e and four-way suffixes takei (vowel harmony):Nevin'de, Nevin'i.

Because Nevin ends in a consonant, vowel-initial endings attach directly (Nevin'i, Nevin'e) with no buffer letter.
