Abstract

Iranian geography, which hosted various Turk states in the historical period, is an important geography where the Turks continue to live as a fundamental element today. Kazakk, Khorasan, Turkoman, Qashqai, Sonqur, Khalaj and others. Aforementioned Turkish groups are scattered all over Iran. In this distribution, the region where the Turkish population is densest appears to be the northwest of Iran. The Sonqur dialect, which is the subject of the study, is located at the southwestern end of the mentioned region. Since the Sonqur dialect is located in a region where different ethnic groups intersect, it has its own grammatical features. In this study, the Sonqur dialect will be taken into the center and the situation of some word and suffix suffix /n/ consonant will be compared with other neighboring Turkish dialects. Thus, the characteristics that the Sonqur dialect, which shares the same dialect, and other neighboring Turkish dialects are similar and differentiated will be revealed.
