The Phonetics and Semantics Relationship in Poems

摘要

Meaningful units and words in a language constitute the expression power of this language. Words are morphemes or cluster of morphemes having meaning or function and they can be used on their own. Words are meaningful or functional linguistics units. Besides the words which are meaningful on their own, there are words which are not meaningful on their own yet gain some specific meanings when combined with other words. In terms of structure, words are morphemes or clusters of morphemes. When words are examined in terms of their structure, it is seen that meaningful phonemic values match. In the semantic analyses carried out on poems and texts, when the characteristics of phonemes and their values are examined, it has been observed that the semantics-phonetics connection of the words is meaningful. Hence, in linguistic and literary analyses, it seems to be necessary to analyze the texts in terms of their phonetic characteristics and values. These analyses are of great importance to reveal phoneticssemantics relations of the words of a language.
