Turkish / Year 9 and 10 / Understanding / Systems of language
Version 8
Curriculum content descriptions
Understand regular and irregular elements of spoken and written Turkish, and use elements such as affixation and compound patterns to produce complex phrases and elaborated texts and to participate in extended interactions
[Key concepts: stress, register, emphasis, pace, mode; Key processes: understanding, experimenting, identifying]
(ACLTUU080)
Elaborations
- understanding the use of lexical stress in Turkish, and the relation between morphemes and stress, where usually the left-most morpheme is the one that determines the stress, as in a range of compounds such as atlıkarınca, kadınbudu, imambayıldı, akşamüstü, güneydoğu, Fenerbahçe, and depremzede
- experimenting with different registers and vocal and stylistic effects in creating specific emphases in different types of spoken and written texts, for example, speeches, songs, letters to the editor
- using elision in informal interactions, for example, napcaz? gelcen mi? naber?
- knowing when to pause and what tone to use for required effects, such as emphasis or persuasion
- recognising ways in which written language differs from spoken language, such as being more crafted, precise, elaborated or complex, for example, the use of subordinate clauses and support details, Cumartesi günkü maçta Atatürk Kupası’nı kazanan takım, Galatasaray’ı 89’uncu dakikada Mehmet’in attığı golle 1-0 yenerek kupayı 5’inci kez evine götüren Beşiktaş oldu
- recognising the impermanent and fluid nature of spoken language, identifying features such as interactivity and turn-taking, the use of repetition, pauses, interruptions and contractions, inverted syntax, such as ben de isterim gelmeyi and the use of non-verbal language and vocal effects
- using challenging word combinations in written and spoken Turkish tongue twisters
