Summary/Abstract: In Tatar Turkish, there are some structures that cannot be clearly transferred to Turkey Turkish in terms of their lexical and grammatical functions. These structures are considered as a group of auxiliary words in Tatar Turkish under the name particle (Tat. kisekçe). One of the subgroups of particles, which are also classified in various ways in terms of their functions, consists of the particles bit, iç, lA and lAbasa, which express emotions (Tat. emoşçiyonal' kisekçe). Emotional particles are used by the speaker mainly to reinforce, confirm or confirm the meaning of the word or phrase with which they are associated. In fact, in sentences that can be understood without the use of particles, a special subtlety of meaning appears with the use of particles. In this case, particles related to emotions diversify in terms of their functions depending on the context. Syntactically, they are usually placed at the end of a sentence, but sometimes they may be placed at the beginning or at the beginning of a sentence in order to emphasise a certain judgement or object. Particles related to emotions, which constitute a group of auxiliary words in Tatar Turkish and which vary functionally according to the context, may not always be transferred directly to another language through lexically or grammatically specific, fixed units. In some cases, it is understood that the use of these particles is specific to Kazan Tatar Turkish. In this respect, the functions of particles related to emotions were tried to be determined through sentences in Kazan Tatar Turkish.
