VerbForm : form of verb or deverbative
We use VerbForm with non-finite verbs that function as heads of adjectival and adverbial clauses.
The verb forms that function as noun phrases (verbal nouns) are not marked with the VerbForm feature.
These verb forms are considered two separate syntactic tokens.
See overview/tokenization
Part: participle
Participle is a non-finite verb form which functions as adjectivals. The participles are introduced using a number of subordinating suffixes.
If the head of the relative clause is omitted (so-called “headless relative clauses”), we treat the word like a verbal noun.
Examples
- okuyacağım kitap “the book that I will read”
- Ali’nin okuduğu kitap “the book that I has read”
- okuyour olduğun kitap “the book that you are reading”
Trans: transgressive
The transgressive, also called adverbial participle,
is a non-finite verb form that shares properties of verbs and adverbs.
In Turkish linguistics, these words are normally called converbs.
However, since the UD definition Trans covers the use of converbs,
we use the same label.
- yürürken gördüm “I saw it while I was walking”
- okuyarak daha iyi öğreniyor “She/he learns better by reading”
- raporu yazılı olarak istiyorlar “They want the report in written form”
- okuyunca anlayacaksın “You will understand when you read it”
