Forward Elements in Orkhon Inscriptions
Orkhon inscriptions contain some differences from other old Turkic inscriptions and manuscripts. Some font character used in these inscriptions, grammatical structures, semantic connotations and words in context are some of the elements that make up these differences. Besides their differences, inscriptions and manuscripts have common elements. In the context of these partnerships, the examination of the inscriptions of Orkhon in terms of vocabulary contributes to the understanding of these inscriptions. At this point, determining the root forms of some derived words is an important issue. The authors of the inscriptions were aware of the root forms of the words in which they used their derived forms. Although this type of root forms are absent in the context, structures with derived forms are called forward element. In this article, forward elements seen in the Orkhon inscriptions will be determined. This determination will contribute to the determination of the partnership and connections of the Orkhon inscriptions in terms of vocabulary with other inscriptions and manuscripts. The determination of root forms has an important place in understanding the richness of the Orkhon inscriptions in terms of vocabulary. In the study, the structures determined as derived forms will be analyzed structurally and semantically until they reach the root form. This study will also contribute to the understanding of word derivation, semantic dimensions of words, voice changes and developments in inscriptions and manuscripts, and the dialect differences of the Turkic language in that period. In addition, deep etymological explanations of the mentioned words will be made.
