    Automatic Turkish suffix harmony for numbers in LuaLaTeX

    When a number in a Turkish document is produced by a cross-reference (\ref, \pageref, \cite), the correct form of any attached suffix depends on how that number is pronounced rCo information that is unavailable at editing time. Hardcoding a suffix works for some numbers but silently produces wrong output for others.

    turkce-sayi resolves this at compile time via LuaTeX. It looks up the phonological properties of the number's Turkish name and applies four transformation rules: consonant hardening/softening (sertle+fme/yumu+fama), two-way and four-way vowel harmony (|+nl|+ uyumu), and buffer-letter insertion or
    vowel drop (kayna+ft-#rma/d|++fme). Invariant morphemes such as -ki, -ken, and -yor
    are detected and vowel harmony is reset at their position so that subsequent morphemes harmonise correctly. The package requires LuaLaTeX.

    Examples:

    \trkappend{3}{'de} % raA 3'te (sertle+fme: |+|o ends in |o) \trkappend{6}{'de} % raA 6'da (vowel harmony: alt-# has back vowel)
    \trkappend{2}{'inci} % raA 2'nci (vowel drop: iki ends in vowel) \trkpageref{sec:intro}{'de} % raA 5'te (suffix determined at compile time)
    \trkref{sec:results}{'inci} % raA 3'|+nc|+ (section number resolved automatically)
    \trkbibref{smith2021}{'de} % raA [3]'te (citation number resolved from .aux)
