2021 Chapter 11. Noun and verb derivations in early Turkish child and child-directed speech The Acquisition of Derivational Morphology: A cross-linguistic perspective, Mattes, Veronika, Sabine Sommer-Lolei, Katharina Korecky-Kröll and Wolfgang U. Dressler (eds.), pp. 263–288 | Chapter
This chapter presents the emergence of derivational morphology in nouns and verbs in the speech of two Turkish-speaking monolingual girls between the ages 1;3 and 3;0, taking into account the patterns in their child-directed speech. Derivational morphology emerges early, before age 3;0, although… read more
2020 Word formation through derivation vs. compounding: Perspectives from child language acquisition of Turkish Morphological Complexity within and across Boundaries: In honour of Aslı Göksel, Gürer, Aslı, Dilek Uygun-Gökmen and Balkız Öztürk (eds.), pp. 39–60 | Chapter
Languages differ with respect to their word formation tendencies and children’s first language acquisition patterns reflect the dominant word formation options in their language starting at a very early age. Universal tendencies (e.g., preferences due to transparency and regularity of… read more

This study examines the Turkish nominal compounds in a monolingual Turkish-speaking child’s speech and child-directed speech between 1;3–2;0. Compounds constitute about 10% of the nouns in both child and child-directed speech. Of these compounds, about 60–80% are the so-called possessive compounds… read more
2017 Chapter 7. Sibling influence on morphological development? Social Environment and Cognition in Language Development: Studies in honor of Ayhan Aksu-Koç, Ketrez, F. Nihan, Aylin C. Küntay, Şeyda Özçalışkan and Aslı Özyürek (eds.), pp. 99–110 | Chapter
Turkish-speaking monolingual children who had a twin sibling, and singleton children without siblings were compared at age 2;0 in terms of their morphological complexity. Children in two groups were balanced according to their birth weight and gestational age. The difference observed between the… read more

This study examines the acquisition of irregular morpho-phonological alternations (word final k-Ø, p-b, t-d, and ç-c alternations) by two different populations of Turkish speaking children, twins vs. singletons around age 3;0. The results, based on an elicited production test, suggest that… read more
2007 11. The (scarcity of) diminutives in Turkish child language The Acquisition of Diminutives: A cross-linguistic perspective, Savickienė, Ineta and Wolfgang U. Dressler (eds.), pp. 279–293 | Chapter
This study reports that diminutive morphology is not one of the early acquisitions in Turkish child speech (1;3–2;0), although the language has a number of productive diminutive morphemes. Similarly the use of hypocoristic forms of nouns is not a typical property of Turkish child speech. We… read more
