Özet:

Salah Birsel, one of the poets of the “1940 Generation”,  remained out of the Strange and Second New. Although some features of these communities are seen in their poems, they have not fully adopted any trend. His culture and temperament made him play with language very arbitrarily and allowed him to turn ordinary into poetry. He developed a simple and irony style with little-known words and expressions of the daily speaking language by taking advantage of interesting expressions. He has changed the words in the standard language with language deviations by making use of roots and suffixes to make up new words out of words in standard language; increasing and reducing, modifying sounds and suffixes, extending vowels to emphasize continuity in words and maintain rhythm, etc. considering that a rich connotation can be opened to the language of poetry. The poet by making use of slang, created his own slang and opened a linguistic space for himself. In addition, he used the foreign words he used in his poems functionally and increased the power of expression with the connotations formed by them. He concentrated emphasis and attention on some words and verses with the spelling deviations created, changing language structures. He made deviations of meaning with unconventional syntax, illogical structures, imaginary features, embodiments, metaphors. In this respect, Salah Birsel expanded the areas of use of poetry and opened new horizons for the poetic language and became a poet out of  “two new” with his distinctive language and style of poetry. In this article, in the process of creating and developing the “own language” of Salah Birsel will be shown that used language deviations by forcing the possibilities of the language used and used them in his poems.
