BASIC POSITIVE EMOTION VERBS IN KISASU'L-ANBIYA

Abstract

Emotions are psychological phenomena that directly affect human life, where a general state of arousal created by a stimulus depending on adaptive functions is evaluated through mental processes, given meaning, and expressed through language or body. There are many emotion verbs in the vocabulary of the language that describe emotional experience. One way to describe feeling verbs linguistically is to group and classify them according to a certain criterion. Various factors such as the subjective nature of emotion, its source, orientation, and the fact that it carries both basic and close meanings make it difficult to classify emotional verbs. The migrations of various Turkish tribes to the Khwarezm region, which started in the 11th century and continued until the 13th century, enabled this area to become Turkified over time. With the Turkification of the region, a new written and literary language emerged, shaped by the mixing of the dialects of Oghuz, Kipchak, Kangli and other Turkish tribes, which are related to Karakhanid Turkish. This language, called Khwarezm Turkish, serves as a bridge between Karakhanid and Chagatai Turkish. This written language, which constitutes the second stage of Middle Turkish, which began to be produced starting from the 13th century, experienced its golden age in the 14th century. Hz. Rabguzi's work called Kısasu'l-Enbiya, in which the stories of the prophets starting from Adam are told, is one of the most important works of Khwarezm Turkish. In this study, which was prepared based on the author's doctoral thesis, the semantics of basic positive emotion verbs were classified and these verbs were examined in terms of lexical semantics, based on Kısasu'l-Enbiya. The aim of the work is to create the theoretical framework of basic positive emotional verbs such as love, love and happiness, to make semantic analysis of words that are basic positive emotional verbs and to determine the characteristics of positive basic emotional verbs in the work.
