§ 93. The English conversational form of address is 'you'; in Turkish, however, there are two forms: sén and siz. Sén is employed in addressing parents, near relatives, children, servants, pupils, and intimate friends, such as would be addressed by their Christian names in England. Siz is used in addressing strangers, or mere acquaintances (S 494).

2. Possessive Pronouns. ¿las

$95. The Possessive Pronouns of the Turkish language do not really correspond to those of the English, but are merely possessive affixes.

§ 96. The possessive affixes are the following:
