Affixes and their functions in Memluk-Kipchak Turkish

In our study of "Affixes and Their Functions in Mamluk-Kipchak Turkish", affixes are obtained from the texts written between 1250-1517 in Mamluk-Kipchak Turkish in Egypt and Syria. The determined affixes' functions and meanings that they add to the sentence are uncovered. These affixes' functions have been identified by using grammar and lexicon works of that era. The study, apart from foreword and introduction, consists of two main chapters. In introduction, information about Kipchak Turks, and Kipchak Turkish is given. In first chapter, derivational affixes are taken into consideration. In second chapter, inflectional affixes are examined. In conclusion chapter, affixes that are used in Mamluk-Kipchak Turkish are examined in the aspects of function and form. New functions are appointed to the new structures or affixes that are determined in the work. Affixes that are determined as Turkmen, Kipchak, and Tatar by the gram marians of that era are shown distinctively. In the last chapter of the study, an index of the affixes and an index of Arabic terms that are mentioned in the study are included.
