Özet:

Generative-transformational grammar analyses aspects of syntax. This theoretical approach attempt stopredict these quences of combinations of words that will form sentences in a language. Therefore, generative-transformational grammar takes in to account deep structure relations as well as surface structure relations. In this study, both deepand surface structure relations of these quences of lexical component sare taken into consideration. Conditional compound sentences and compound sentences connected with verbs, which are evaluated under the subject of compound sentences, are analysed within this framework. The compound sentence structure, which provides the connection between the subordinate clause and the main clause, constitutes a grammatical category. The unlabelled correspondences in a language constitute the deep structure of the generative-transformational approach. In Turkish, the unlabelled cases are generally used to indicate the possessive third person singular and plural personal suffixes, the pronoun-based third person singular and plural personal suffixes, the simple present tense suffix, the deep-structure forms of the nouns complemented by adjectives, and the deep-structure modal-tense and personal suffixes of the verb forming the subordinate clause of the compound structure we are considering. And these unlabelled cases are replaced by what we call the zero morphological unit. These units indicate that elements in the form of affixes or stems are considered to exist in the deep structure. In this study, especially conditional compound sentences and compound sentence structures connected with verbs are emphasised. And it is stated why these structures should be evaluated in the compound sentence category.
