Özet:

This article deals with word formation in Turkish and in German and in which the word formation of Turkish differs from German. The Skills of word formation play a major role in foreign language acquisition as in native language acquisition, and are an important and great help in the development of a lexis. Learners can be encouraged to make assumptions about the meaning of unfamiliar words through their skills of word formation. In this regard, in the seminar „Konfrontative Grammatik Türkisch Deutsch“ translated to "Confrontational Grammar Turkish German", both languages were compared and confronted with the six-semester students of German teacher training at Uludağ University. The differences between the German and the Turkish language are quite large. Therefore, this article refers not only to differences but also to concordances. These similarities already begin with the cornerstones of word formation: both languages use composition as well as derivation. Accordingly, this is a morphological analysis that examines lexicological variants of word formation in Turkish. This is a contrastive analysis and the method of language comparison is to be assigned to the linguistic (sub) discipline of contrastive linguistics. In this regard, this article also addressed the ability to work contrastive in one's own German teaching. It was also investigated whether the students can recognize and compare phenomena in their own and foreign languages. Consequently, it was concluded that students who work contrastively can broaden their skills of word formation and be encouraged to make assumptions about the meaning of unknown words. Thanks to skills of word formation, the ability to analyze word formation products can also be developed. Contrastive foreign language teaching or grammar teaching provide good help and are part of a foreign language study.
