Ferik was a military rank of the Ottoman Army. It is translated as Major General (modern Turkish: Tümgeneral) or Lieutenant General (Korgeneral).[2] It was superior to a Mirliva ("Brigadier") and junior to a Birinci Ferik ("First Ferik/General").
The title of Ferik was abolished with Act No. 2590 of 26 November 1934 on the Abolition of Titles and Appellations such as Efendi, Bey or Pasha.
