Özet:

There are many different studies on word groups that are included in the study area of syntax. In the studies conducted, researchers provided different definitions and classifications. In this study, word groups have been examined according to the structural-grammatical plan (number of combining elements, word type of the basic element, connection method between elements, syntactic connection type) and functional-semantic plan (syntactic connection type) which were shaped around the frame of Soviet school which has some differences than the conventional classification in Turkology. In this study, the literary works about Karachay-Balkar proverbs have been scanned and the data to be used in this study have been obtained. First, proverbs containing dependent word groups were identified. Later, the identified dependent word groups were examined according to the number of elements and simple word groups were separated. The separated simple word groups were classified according to the word type of the basic element and the function of the word group in the syntax. Lastly, the structure types were determined by examining the connection methods of the elements that constitute the word group. In the examined proverbs, among the simple word groups, 23 different structure types were identified. As a result of these examinations, it has been observed that noun-word groups were particularly used more frequently in simple structures. Additionally, it was determined that the number of word groups formed by order relations in simple word groups were higher than the number of groups formed by other methods.
