Anlamsal ve Edimsel Düzlemde Türkçede Tanıtsallık

Abstract

In natural languages, evidentiality which is a type of epistemic modality
is the indication of the nature of an evidence for a given statement. This
paper gives a semantic and pragmatic account of the evidential markers –mIş and –(y)mIş as being contrasted to –DI in Turkish within the frameworks of Possible World Semantics and Speech Act Theory. The paper shows that the evidential markers –mIş and –(y)mIş in Turkish can be analysed as possibility operators at semantic level. The modal force of –mIş can also shift to necessarily truth, which is determined by the type of knowledge source. On the contrary, the perfective marker –DI, as its modal force, indicates necessarily truth. At pragmatic level they can also function as illocutionary operators i.e. modifiers of the sincerity conditions associated with a speech act.
