Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes grammatical and semantic features of Turkish interrogative infinitive noun phrases containing polar questions. The primary aim of the paper is to determine, based on contextual examples, how root interrogative sentences containing neutral and focused polar questions are transformed into infinitive noun phrases through the process of nominalization. In the contrastive analysis, Turkish interrogative infinitive noun phrases with neutral and focused polar questions are compared with semantically similar syntactic structures in Bosnian language.
