Abstract

In the grammar studies, despite the fact that the qualification arrangement ofTurkish is forward, the possessive forms of kendi word before the non-reflexive verbsare regarded as reflexive pronoun and named intensified subject or emphatic pronoun.In this article, I intend to argue whether a reflexive pronoun could be subject of asentence as a glosseme with or without possessive suffixes or not.
