Questions & Answers about Kırtasiye dükkânından iki defter ve bir takvim aldım.

What does the ending in dükkânından mean, and why is it -dan?

It’s the ablative case, -dan/-den/-tan/-ten, meaning “from.” Because the last vowel before the case is the back vowel ı, vowel harmony picks -dan (with a). The consonant stays as d here; it would surface as t after a voiceless consonant (e.g., parktan “from the park”).

Where does the n in dükkânından come from?

That’s a buffer -n- used when a noun with third-person possessive takes another case ending. Here we have the compound marker (3sg possessive) on dükkânı, then ablative: dükkân-ı-n-dan. Without that possessive layer, you’d get dükkandan (“from the shop”).

Does kırtasiye dükkânı mean “his/her stationery shop”?

No. This is an indefinite noun–noun compound (belirtisiz isim tamlaması) where the head noun carries the 3rd-person possessive as a compound marker: kırtasiye dükkânı = “stationery shop.” It doesn’t imply ownership. To say “his/her shop,” you’d specify the possessor: onun dükkânı.

Can I just say Kırtasiyeden ... aldım instead of kırtasiye dükkânından?

Yes. Kırtasiye by itself commonly means “stationery shop,” so Kırtasiyeden iki defter ve bir takvim aldım is perfectly natural and a bit shorter. The longer form is also fine and slightly more explicit.
