Idioms as multi-word expressions in Turkish
Güven, Arzu Burcu; Bozşahin, Hüseyin Cem; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2020-10)

A better understanding of idioms will yield valuable insights about natural language as well as the way it is processed. The relevance of idioms, along with the fact that Turkish is a rather unexplored language from this perspective, motivates us to work on Turkish idioms. Here, we aim to demonstrate a grammatical study on Turkish idioms that were selected in accordance with distributional models.
