A PATTERNED GERUND: “giderek”
When a suffix and a word combines and the suffix is used in a different function than its main function making a new meaning, it is called “kalıplaşma (patterned)”.

| Sumario: | When a suffix and a word combines and the suffix is used in a different function than its main function making a new meaning, it is called “kalıplaşma (patterned)”. Gerunds are not suitable for derivating new words through “kalıplaşma (patterned)” as deverbal nouns and participles are. However, they do make adverbs with new meanings and functions through “kalıplaşma”. In this study, the gerund suffix {–(y)ArAk}, which was started to be seen in the Old Anatolian Turkish from the 14th century on and became common especially after the 15th century, and “giderek”, emerging from this suffix and became a standard has been investigated diachronically. The aim the study is to determine when the gerund “giderek” lost its literal meaning, made a new word combining with the suffix {–(y)ArAk}, and used with which stuructures through the texts from the first times. To this end, the works from the Old Antolian Turkish, Classical Ottoman Turkish and contemporary Turkish have been investigated, the functions and positions of “giderek” in the sentences have been established. We have, through this study, tried to determine the starting periods of the functions. At the end, it was seen that the word “giderek” was used in the 14th century both with its literal meaning and with the new meaning. While it got the meaning of “at last, finally” during the Old Anatolian Turkish and Classical Ottoman Turkish, today it gives the meaning of “ continuity which is increasingly going on”. The way it was used during the Old Anatolia Turkish and Classical Ottoman Turkish is still, though not very commonly, used. In contemporary Turkish, the commonest function of “giderek” is the meaning of “continuity which is increasingly going on”. |
