Chubrykova O. Semantic-structural features of the compound explanatory sentences in Turkish language.

The thesis identifies and provides theoretical analysis of the semantic-structural features of the compound explanatory sentences in Turkish language. On this basis semantic-structural classification of the compound explanatory structures was designed. The author proves that compound explanatory sentences are an independent type of compound sentences with the following differential criteria: 1) supporting word in the main clause; 2) syntactic connection between main and subordinate clauses; 3) semantic connection between main and subordinate clauses. The author proposes a new approach to figuring out the way of formation of subordinate clause basing on grammatical and semantic features of the supporting word without defining its syntactic role. During the research special attention was paid to semantic nuances of the compound explanatory clauses and means of their expression.
