                            <p>Bir Türk lehçesi olan Çuvaşça önceki sözdizimi çalışmalarında gözden kaçırılmıştır. Öte yandan ilk izlenimler Çuvaş dilinin oldukça önemli sözdizimsel niteliklere olan ve mevcut sözdizimi tipolojilerine uymayan bir lehçe olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada genel Türk tipolojisine uymayan bir söz dizimi konusu olan Çuvaşça ilgi yancümleleri incelenecektir. Araştırmada Çuvaşça ilgi yancümlelerinde kullanılan sıfatfiil eklerinin dağılımı açısından Tümleyici Uyumu, özne ve iyelik eki arasındaki uyum ilişkisi, cümle yapısındaki eksiklikler ve Çuvaşçanın Türk ilgi yancümleleri tipolojisindeki yerine değinilmektedir. Buna göre Çuvaşça ilgi yancümleleri Türk dillerinin tipolojik ayrımına uygun bir görüntü arz etmektedir. Öte yandan uyum ilişkisi ve özne çekimi sorunlu gibi görünüyor olsa da bu durumun, Çuvaşçanın özgün uyum morfolojisi ve cümle yapısı özellikleriyle ilgili olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Öyle ki yancümle özneleri hem ilgi hem de yalın durum çekimi alabilmekte ve iyelik ekleri de yancümlenin nitelediği adın üzerine gelebilmektedir. Ayrıca Çuvaşça ilgi yancümlesinin, yapısal özellikler ve iyelik ekinin nitelenen ad üzerinde olması açısından A tipi bir dil Türk dili olduğu düşünülmektedir. Mevcut çalışmada yapılan birtakım sözdizimsel testler de bu yancümlelerin TÜMÖ&#039;den daha eksik bir öbek olabileceğine işaret etmektedir.</p></trans-abstract>

On the other hand, first impressions show that Chuvash language is a dialect with very important syntactic qualities that still do not fit the syntax typologies mentioned above. In the current study, Chuvash relative clauses will be examined, a syntax topic that does not comply with the general Turkic typology. Complementizer Agreement in terms of the distribution of gerundial suffixes used in Chuvash relative clauses, agreement relation between subject and possessive suffix, deficiencies in the phrase structure and placement of Chuvash in Turkic relative clause typology will be mentioned in the research. Accordingly, Chuvash relative clause structures can be categorized within the Turkic relative clause typology. On the other hand, agreement relationship and subject case seem problematic but it is all about Chuvash’s unique agreement morphology and phrase structure features. The subject can get both genitive and nominative cases and the possessive suffixes are marked on the noun modified in Chuvash relative clause structures. Additionally, Chuvash can be categorized as an A type language in terms of its relative clause’s phrase structure features and its agreement suffix being on the modified noun. Likewise, some syntactic test conducted in the study shows that these clauses must be lower than CP.</p></abstract>
