Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article analyzes the semantics of izafet constructions in the "Gulistan bit Turki" monument. The research focuses on studying the syntactic structures of Turkic written monuments, particularly izafet constructions, to gain a deeper understanding of the semantic aspects of the syntactic system of Turkic languages of that period. Izafet constructions help determine the semantic connections between objects, phenomena, and concepts in the language, thus playing a significant role in Turkic linguistics. The aim of the study is to identify the semantic features of izafet relations in the "Gulistan bit Turki" text and analyze their grammatical and semantic connections. By distinguishing the types of izafet constructions (I, II, III), the study examines the use of possessive, subordinate, and metaphorical meanings and their semantic roles in the written monument. Structural-semantic, historical-comparative, contextual, and syntactic analysis methods are employed in this research. These methods allow for an examination of the semantic aspects of izafet constructions in the text. The semantic analysis of izafet constructions helps explain the fundamental principles of the syntactic system of Turkic languages and reveals the linguistic value of this monument. The research findings can be applied in linguistics, literary studies, and cultural studies. The study offers a comprehensive analysis of the semantics of izafet relations in "Gulistan bit Turki" and demonstrates their importance in shaping the semantic system of Turkic languages. This research makes a significant contribution to the deeper understanding of the historical aspects of the syntactic structure of Turkic languages.
