EMÇEĞİN

Yazarın EMÇEK (emçeğin) biçiminde yazdığı sözcük "meme-ucu" (meme ucunun) veya "emzik" (EMZİĞİN) anlamındadır. EMÇEK- sözcüğünü "meme" ve "süt-anne" anlamında kullanan yöresel ağızlar da mevcuttur. Örneğin Tokat yöresinde EMÇEK- "süt-anne" anlamındadır. --- / --- The root of this Word, which the author wrote as EMÇEGİN, is the verb EM- (suck). The word suffix -ÇEG (-çek) added to this verb turns this word into a noun meaning "breast, wet-nurse or milking-bottle or nipple". Thus, since the syllable EM in the root is a root verb in this case, we cannot read it phonetically as -ĞN. However, the word-ending suffix written in the same way at the end of the word (appearing to be written AM/EM) will be read as -ĞIN/-ĞİN. Because the word suffix -ÇEG- before this last syllable has turned the root of this word into a noun. As can be seen from here, the rule specific to the language works the same way every time. In other words, it is not a phonetic choice by the transliterator but a situation particular to the spelling style of the language.
