Abstract (EN)

The aim of this study is to take epics from North-Eastern Turks and examine these epics in terms of linguistic philosophy. While examining these epics, a study will be presented by examining the theories of language philosophy as well as pragmatics, semantics and syntax, and revealing the relationship of the language in the epics with meaning, understanding, thinking, communication and culture. It is also aimed to show how language and culture translate thoughts. The realities underlying these thoughts find expression with meanings. The better we know the language and culture of a society, the better we can know the thought that society wants to reflect. After all, language is a tool that transmits and sustains culture and thought. Culture is a structure that guides society with its deep meanings along with language and the philosophy of language. Human beings need culture at least as much as language. At the end of this study, it is concluded that the epics produced in Turkish societies, even in the geographically distant North-Eastern Turks, all develop within a Turkish culture, and when these epics are examined in terms of language philosophy, they reveal the common Turkish life, laws, beliefs, etc. By showing us things, he states that language, philosophy and culture are an inseparable trio. In this context, the sentence structure, syntax, semantics, pragmatics of the epic texts and the relationship between language, thought and culture used in the epics are examined in terms of language philosophers and theories, and then the common types and motifs in these epics are explained and a meaning evaluation is made with the examples given. In the conclusion part, there will be a general evaluation.
