Abstract :
Turkish language is an agglutinative language which has a rich vocabulary making mechanism. It is important that this rich capacity is used of properly. Despite wide vocabulary derivation opportunities and the richness of Turkish suffixes, we see more use of derivative words in Arabic and Persian to the period of the Republic. But the people who use this language never given up language used by taking advantage of opportunities producing a new set of words. The most beautiful proof of this is Turkish words which are used in the Anatolian dialects. After the Republic with a mindset change which abandoned vocabulary derivation based on Arabic and Persian roots and attachments and with Turkish roots and attachments new derivatives started. From the Republic to the present, an approximately eighty-year time period, the derivation of the word has covered a serious distance. The work of word derivation has been made sometimes by the population who spoken this language, sometimes by authors who have given literary works in this language, and sometimes by scientists and journalists. In this study words which are not used in the dictionary of Turkey Turkish today, but are used by scientists and journalists will be mentioned.
