BİR YERLİLEŞTİRME ÖRNEĞİ: -(s)Xn GERİ YAPISI
AN EXAMPLE OF DOMESTICATION: THE STRUCTURE -(s)Xn GERİ

Summary/Abstract: I first heard about the debate on structure in 2018. This discussion opened on the academia.edu website became an article in 2019. The question of whether the structure, some of which is also used in written language today, could have a connection with the uses in Old Turkish was the essence of the discussion and the article. The difference in function that we encounter today, the change from suffix to word, and the absence of examples in historical periods are the problems in the connection of the structure that will be established between the past and the present. The need for convincing evidence to overcome these problems is obvious. If there is such a connection, especially the development from suffix to word is an important problem that should be put forward with convincing evidence. As far as I know, there is the word ban, which is also mentioned in the Dede Korkut Oghuz Names, which I also point out to be inappropriateness and that Steingass claims to the development from suffix to word. My opinion on this controversial example has not changed today. In the face of all these, the similarity of the structure with the Old Turkish forms is obvious. In this article, it will be attempted to prove that the reason for this similarity is a domestication event.
