A STUDY ON NUMERALS IN TURKISH LANGUAGE

Abstract

Since the emergence of Turkology studies in the Turkish academic context, one of the most widely studied topics by linguists and experts is the language family of Turkish and its etymology. The basic words in the lexicon of languages occupy an essential place. These words, due to the characteristics they have are firstly to be categorised when studying the language interrelations, language differences, language teaching, language history and grammar. The numeral names, in some other words, data coming from the science of lexicology is accepted as basic names in the lexicon of languages by linguists. In this study on one hand we aim to identify the characteristics and criteria of basic words and on the other hand to examine synchronically and diachronically the used numarals of body parts in Turkish lexicon.
