AN EVALUATION ON EPENTHESIS OF VOWELS IN TURKISH
Abstract :
Epenthesis is derivation of a vowel or a consonant that is not present in a word. Epenthesis is seen in the beginning, internal and end of a word. When last sound epenthesis are regarded, it is observed that those epenthesises are denser in vowels. The reasons of the last sounds that are thought to be derivated, are attributed to various factors by various scholars. However, no common consensus has been reached. Some of the scholars attribute these occurence to vowels needed for the fluency. On the other hand some other scholars attribute this to the shortenning of primary long vowels, to the double consonants at last sounds or to the fact that the epenthesis is an original part of the word. In this study, it is aimed to find out whether these epenthesis are geniune derivations or not. Even if it is so, the reasons are aimed to be sought.
