This study presents results from a sentence completion test that examines the production of finite main clauses and non-finite relative clauses in Turkish agrammatic speech. In main clauses, the verb is finite and all its constituents are in their base positions. In relative clauses, the verb is a participle and the NP undergoes overt movement to an A-bar position. The results show that non-finite relative clauses with overt movement as such are more difficult to produce than finite main clauses with a base order. The findings are discussed with respect to several hypotheses on finite verbs and syntactic complexity. The conclusion is that Turkish agrammatic speakers have more problems in producing structurally derived clauses and the production of verbs is influenced by linguistic factors such as the overt movement of the NP.
本研究展示了一项句子完成测试的结果，该测试考察了土耳其语语法缺失言语中限定性主句和非限定性关系从句的生成情况。在主句中，动词是限定性的，其所有成分都处于基础位置。在关系从句中，动词是分词形式，名词短语（NP）会显性移位到A杠位置。结果表明，像这样带有显性移位的非限定性关系从句比具有基础语序的限定性主句更难生成。研究结果结合了关于限定动词和句法复杂性的几种假设进行了讨论。结论是，土耳其语语法缺失的说话者在生成结构派生从句时存在更多问题，并且动词的生成受到诸如名词短语显性移位等语言因素的影响。
