A PRACTICAL LOOK AT FACTUAL AND NON-FACTIVE NOMINALIZATION STRUCTURE IN TEACHING TURKISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE: THE CASE OF NEVŞEHİR HACI BEKTAŞ VELİ UNİVERSITY TÖMER
Abstract
In teaching Turkish to foreigners, -mA, -mAk and -(y)Iş are considered as nominalization suffixes. However, the suffixes -DIk and -(y)AcAk are also used to nominalize sentences. For example, in the sentence “Ona hediye aldığımı söylemedim” (I didn't tell that I bought a gift for him/her.), the suffix -DIk is nominalized in the subordinate clause; the nominalized verb “alma” (buying) has occurred, meaning it is “factual”. In contrast, in the sentence “Annem ona hediye almamı söyledi.” (My mother told me to buy him/her a gift.), the focus is not on whether the action nominalized by the suffix -mA has occurred, but rather on the state or event that the action indicates. Thus, in this example, the structure of the nominalized action is “non-factive”. However, this rule is insufficient to explain why the example “*Seni görmeye sevindim.” (*I am happy to see you.) is incorrect. This study is conducted based on this problem. Using a qualitative research method, specifically a survey study, an interview form was administered to 15 international C1-level students studying at Nevşehir Hacı Bektaş Veli University TÖMER. This form was structured with expert opinions, measured for reliability through a pilot study, and included open-ended, true-false, and multiple-choice questions. The study aimed to determine how often and in what manner students use and understand the suffixes -mA, -DIk, and -(y)AcAk, and their awareness of the factual/non-factual nature of nominalized actions. When the responses were evaluated, the percentage of students who could select grammatically and semantically correct sentences formed with the suffixes -mA, -DIk, and -(y)AcAk was 55.56%. It was observed that learners could not differentiate between the -mA nominalization suffix, which emphasizes the state, action, movement, or occurrence described by the verb, and the -(y)Iş nominalization suffix, which emphasizes the manner in which the action is carried out. In examples where certain main clause verbs were given and students were asked to complete them appropriately, it was found that the usage rates of nominalized structures with -mA, -DIk, and -(y)AcAk were very close for the verbs of feeling (emotive) such as being sad, being surprised, and believing, which was associated with the emotional nature of the main clause predicate. In sentences that include the concepts of factive and non-factive, 72.50% of the learners preferred to use the factive, while 27.50% opted for the non-factive in sentences formed with nominalization structure. The study suggests that there is a need for a holistic grammar teaching in terms of the factual and non-factual status of -mA and -DIk suffixes.
