1. Derives nouns from verbs, of a result or product of the action, with the suffix -n, which derives Reflexive forms of verbs.

   ‎al- (“to take”) + ‎-ın- (“to take offense”) + ‎-tı → ‎alıntı (“quotation, citation”)

   ‎söyle- (“to say, to tell”) + ‎-n- (“to talk to oneself, to complain”) + ‎-ti → ‎söylenti (“rumor”)

2. Some verb roots either do not have Reflexive forms due to being New Turkish words derived through false analogy^[1] or these forms fell off use in modern Turkish.

   ‎çök- (“to collapse, to cave in”) + ‎-ün- + ‎-tü → ‎çöküntü (“collapse, breakdown”) ("çökünmek" does not exist in modern Turkish. Compare with چوكنمك (t͡ʃœ.cyn.mec) in Ottoman Turkish.)^[2]

   ‎çöz- (“to solve, to untangle, to dissolve”) + ‎-el- + ‎-ti → ‎çözelti (“solution, resulting substance of dissolution”) (Derived through false analogy to çökmek into çökelmek into çökelti; "çözelmek" does not exist as a separate verb.)^[3]

   ‎ak- (“to flow”) + ‎-ın- + ‎-tı → ‎akıntı (“flow, current, stream”)

   ‎ayır- (“to separate, to split”) + ‎-ın- + ‎-tı → ‎ayrıntı (“detail”)

   ‎bekle- (“to wait, to expect”) + ‎-n- + ‎-ti → ‎beklenti (“expectation”)

3. Derives onomatopoeic nouns, with suffixes -ır or -ıl, which derive onomatopoeic verbs in Turkic dialects.^[4]

   ‎çıt (“click or crack sound”) + ‎-ır- + ‎-tı → ‎çıtırtı (“clicking, cracking”)

   ‎fıs (“soft hiss sound”) + ‎-ıl- + ‎-tı → ‎fısıltı (“whisper, whispering”)

   ‎gür (“rumble or clatter sound”) + ‎-ül- + ‎-tü → ‎gürültü (“noise, rumbling”)

   ‎mır (“murmur sound”) + ‎-ıl- + ‎-tı → ‎mırıltı (“murmuring, mumbling”)

4. Derives nouns with the suffix -ar, which derives intransitive verbs from the names of colors,^[5] of an area that turns that color.

   ‎kara (“black”) + ‎-ar- (“to turn black”) + ‎-tı → ‎karartı (“darkness, blackness, shadow”)

   ‎ak (“white, light”) + ‎-ar- (“to turn white”) + ‎-tı → ‎ağartı (“whitening, breaking of dawn”)

   ‎mor (“purple”) + ‎-ar- (“to turn purple”) + ‎-tı → ‎morartı (“bruise, a purplish spot”)

• Most commonly used with the -in (reflexive and passive suffix), which is why the suffix is often classified in full as -ıntı,^[6][7] even though some nouns derived in this way are made from verbs that do not have reflexive forms; i.e akıntı, üzüntü, sarsıntı.
