Quoting CANLI:

Yes,but Ettirgen is different,

O çocuk camı kırıttı.... Ettirgen
O çocuk camı kırdı.....Etken
Cam o çocuk tarafından kırıldı....Edilgen

Actually ettirgen is causative.
Active = Etken
Passive = Edilgen
causative = Ettirgen

Etken can be transitive or intransitive. Ettirgen is always transitive.

Etken:
Durdum = I stopped (intr)
Gördüm = I saw it (tr)

Edilgen:
Durduruldum = I was stopped (Something/somebody stopped me)
Görüldüm = I was seen (somebody saw me)

Ettirgen:
Durdurdum = I stopped it (I made it stop).
Gördürdüm = I made him/her see it

Ettirilgen (passive of "ettirgen"):
Durdurtuldum = I was made stop it (somebody made me stop it)
Gördürüldüm = I was made see it (somebody made me see it)
