Abstract

One of the application of NLP is Question and Answering (QA) system. In this field there are many researches and applications. Some competition are organized to increase the performance of the systems. Turkish is a language designed as if by a scientific committee. In Turkish language, rules are clear and transparent. In order to prove these features of Turkish, rules regarding phonology, morphology and syntax features have been deduced, a logical expression has been written for each rule and a flow diagram has been drawn. Indexing of pages written in Turkish is somewhat difficult than any India-European pages. Although an English words can get one prefix and one suffix Turkish words can take many suffixes. Therefore, we need to discover the root or stem of the word.

The rules of Turkish were tested with the programs developed in accordance with the flow diagram. As a result of the tests, it has been proven that the rules of Turkish are intact. Finally, a study was conducted to artificially create a sentence and a program was prepared.
