Perfective Negation İn Crimean Tatar

Abstract This paper investigates perfective negation in Crimean Tatar, focusing on the interplay between verbal and nominative features of participial constructions formed with -GAn. The study examines how these constructions interact with negation, aspects, and nominalization, highlighting their dual grammatical nature. The paper underscores the dual nature of -GAn participles, bridging verbal and nominal domains. Their flexibility enables their use in various syntactic positions, from predicates to noun phrases.
