Abstract:

The subject of language, like the brain, has always been kept on the agenda by human beings, and language has been regarded as a magical world due to the mysterious connection of language with the brain. It is stated that the number of languages in the world is around three thousand to seven thousand according to today's findings. Many studies were performed and many linguistic theories were put forward on the origin of languages, how they emerged, their relations with each other, their kinship, similarities and differentiations. In general linguistic studies, similar and different points of languages were discussed to recognize languages, to make sense of language phenomenon and to facilitate this interpretation, and sounds, affixes, words, word groups and sentence structures in languages were examined. As a result of this examination, various language families, language kinship, language similarities and language theories have emerged. In this research, the possessive suffixes that connect noun to noun, noun to verb, indicate to whom or what an object or entity belongs to, and denote relation, ownership, possessive, property were emphasized by adding possessive suffixes to nouns and noun-origin words. Although the possessive suffixes of each language have their own morphological, structural, indexical and semantic functions, the Turkish language and the Persian language are not in the same language family and, it has been tried to reveal that the forms of formation of these suffixes and their combining properties are remarkably similar. With this study, it was aimed to approach the Eurasian theory of language on the possessive suffixes and especially the possessive plural suffixes of these two languages. Consequently, the examination revealed that the typological logical order of Persian possessive plural suffixes is similar to the Turkish plural possessive suffix formation order.
