A contrastive analysis of nominal in English, Persian & Turkish languages based on Generative Grammar
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 6, Issue 7
Abstract
This study aims at determining the similarities and differences of using nominal in three different languages of English, Persian and Turkish. As the structuralism scholars have emphasized, the language is composed of a limited number of rules and we can compose unlimited sentences using this limited set of rules. Regarding their views, nominal is an important part of each sentence in virtually all languages. Nominal can replace nouns, noun phrases and complements in English and as nouns are used in so many languages as an important part of the grammar, and grammatical rules utilize it in various positions such as subjects, objects and prepositional phrases, the researcher intends to get to a comprehensive understanding of the similarities and the differences of using nominal in three languages mentioned above. In this article, the researcher wants to use a contrastive analysis based approach to make conclusions, because it is believed that this method clarifies the similarities and differences of two or more distinct languages better. Also the viewpoints of great scholars such as Chomsky who proposed the idea of generative grammar and developed it until he proved the benefits of this approach in different linguistic fields, will be taken into consideration.
