Analysis of the Algorithm of Semantic Structure in the Examples of Old Turkic Inscriptions

Abstract

While doing research on Old and Middle Turkic texts, it is important to analyse and solve the meaning structure in order to understand these texts and transfer them to Turkish and other languages. Researchers especially transfer or translate some of the Old Turkic sentences in different meanings. We believe that this problem can be solved by revealing the algorithm of semantic structure of the texts. For this reason, in our research, we use semantic roles, semantic complements, semantic categories, description of verb qualities, text context, semantic structures and valency by keeping and analysing some records of some Old Turkic inscriptions in a combining approach. In revealing the semantic structure of various sentences, it will be explained how to obtain the semantic valency and semantic roles coded in the meaning of a verb in accordance with the text content and the sample sentences will be analysed and shown in practice.
