Abstract

Turkish is an agglutinative language and it doesn’t have prefixes. Just like the other languages, Turkish has established relationships with foreign languages from the time it arises and affected by them too. At first, due to Islam, Arabic and Persian languages influenced to Turkish, then affects of Western-based languages, such as French and English, were seen clearly. One of the foreign elements which get involved in Turkish from the other languages are prefixes. Turkish has taken some natural measures while including prefixes which are incompatible with its nature. Some western-based prefixes change their functions in Turkish language and they become words. This is an example of the mentioned measures. In this article, we are going to analyze the western-based prefixes which are used as words in Turkish and we will mention the structures and etymology of this prefixes in their own language. Finally, we are going to ensample their usage in Turkish with press products.
