Abstract:

Dialects are language branches with different phonetic and morphological features used during speech in provinces, districts and villages within a writing field. Today, depending on the development of technology, our dialects, which belong to our cultural richness, have begun to disappear. It is only possible to ensure the permanence of these cultural riches, which belong to our oral tradition, by working on it. Reinforcement is the elements that increase the power of the word in oral and written expression, strengthen the meaning of the expressed concept or draw attention to a concept. It is necessary to determine the elements of reinforcement in Anatolian dialects and to reveal the richness of our language. In this direction, the reinforcement elements in the mouth of Malatya province were tried to be determined in the research. The study was based on the scanning method. In order to obtain the findings of the research, the Malatya Province Dialect book was examined and the parts that were thought to be reinforcement in these works were recorded within the contexts. The dialect of Malatya province has the general characteristics of the Western Group dialects in terms of phonetic features, and it overlaps with the features of the seventh subgroup within this group. In the study, reinforcement was examined under four main headings: "Reinforcement with Sounds, Reinforcement with Suffixes, Reinforcement with Words, Reinforcement with Syntax", and reinforcement elements that increase the effect of the word and make the word clear have been identified in the dialects of Malatya province and their usage has been emphasized. In addition, the data obtained as a result of the research are presented in the form of tables and graphics. As a result of the research, the richness of the dialect of Malatya province was revealed and the subject was brought to the attention of researchers.
