%0 Journal Article %T Prosodic Features of Turkish and Hindi: A Comparative Analysis %A Hazel Zeynep Kurada %J - %D 2018 %X Universally, the functioning of each language system is composed of some specific sequences. As one of these regulations, prosodic structure, a phonological component, includes supraaural facts above segmental phonemes. Although the suprasegmental phonemes, which can functionally be semantically distinctive, appear in every language, they may not exhibit a contrastive relationship in each language as a result of varying structures of languages and thus they may not function as a prosodeme as well. In this review article, for the first time in Turkish linguistics literature, some suprasegmental phonemes, word stress, duration, juncture, intonation and focus phonemes have been discussed comparatively in Hindi and Turkish. Thus, it has been aimed to describe how the conditions of the suprasegmental phonemes function as a prosodeme vary among languages. Within the framework of observed regulations, the possible reasons of the similarities and differences in the sequences of both languages are discussed %K hintŁże %K bščrščn %K bščrščnbirim %U http://dergipark.org.tr/aujef/issue/35882/428869
