Difficulties encountered by Turkish-speaking students in studying accusative case

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to conduct a comparative analysis of case systems in Russian and Turkish. Special attention is paid to the accusative and the confusion of its meanings with the dative due to the interlingual interference that occurs among Turkish-speaking students. The scientific novelty of this study lies in the given system of exercises aimed at predicting and preventing errors when using the accusative and dative cases. The article provides a classification of the meanings of the accusative case to the extent necessary for level B1 (TORFL-1). As a result of comparing these values with the Turkish counterpart through translation, it was revealed that Turkish-speaking students, communicating in their native language, in most of these cases will use the dative case. To avoid interference, effective work is needed even at the stage of acquaintance with the meanings of each case.
