Marheba.

Is there an order for attaching suffixes on the end of a word.

Teşekkürler!

Also, does anyone know how to write and read Ottoman Turkish.

Thanks a lot.

Yes, there's an order: firstly plural sufix, next possessive suffix and then other sufixes:

ev - home
evler - homes
evim - my home
evde - at home
evimde - at my home
evlerde - at homes
evlerim - my homes
evlerimde - at my homes

every grammatic form in Turkish is formed by adding sufixes to the word. This is what's characteristic for every aglutinative language.

thats what makes it quite easy to understand and logical to learn, its always the same basic word(root) and its just a different suffix to change the tense, and direction etc of that word.

I love to learn this language,
