Özet:

 The aim of this study is to examine the frequency of nouns and verbs in preschool storybooks designed for children acquiring Turkish, to determine the dominance of word types. For this research, four different storybooks from a publishing house were randomly selected. These selected books were analyzed in detail using corpus content analysis detect the frequency of word types. During the analysis process, all words in the storybooks were categorized, and the frequencies of these categories were calculated. The frequency analyses revealed that nouns were used more frequently than verbs in each of the four books. When these four books are evaluated collectively, it becomes evident that the usage of nouns is significantly higher than that of verbs. The results are consistent with the literature suggesting that nouns are acquired earlier and more frequently than verbs in the language acquisition process of children. Furthermore, it is indicated that nouns play a more significant role in language development, as reflected in the design of educational materials used in the preschool period. These results provide important data to consider in the fields of language development and pedagogical material design, offering valuable insights into the role of word types in childrens language learning processes.

 Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkçe öğrenen çocuklar için hazırlanmış okul öncesi hikâye kitaplarında ad ve eylem kullanım sıklığını inceleyerek, bu sözcük türlerinin baskınlığını tespit etmektir. Araştırma kapsamında, bir yayınevine ait dört farklı hikâye kitabı rastgele seçilmiştir. Seçilen bu kitaplar, sözcük türlerinin sıklığını belirlemek amacıyla derlem içerik analizi yöntemi kullanılarak detaylı bir şekilde incelenmiştir. Analiz sürecinde, hikâye kitaplarındaki tüm sözcükler kategorilere ayrılmış ve bu kategorilerdeki sözcüklerin frekansları hesaplanmıştır. Yapılan sıklık analizleri sonucunda, her bir kitapta adların eylemlere kıyasla daha fazla kullanıldığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu dört kitap bir bütün olarak değerlendirildiğinde de adların kullanımının eylemlerden belirgin şekilde daha yüksek olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Sonuçlar, çocukların dil edinimi sürecinde adların eylemlere göre daha erken ve sık öğrenildiği yönündeki literatürle uyum göstermektedir. Ayrıca, bu bulgular okul öncesi dönemde kullanılan eğitim materyallerinin tasarımında isimlerin dil gelişimine katkısının daha fazla olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu sonuçlar, dil gelişimi ve pedagojik materyal tasarımında dikkate alınması gereken önemli veriler sunmaktadır ve çocukların dil öğrenme sürecinde sözcük türlerinin rolü hakkında önemli bilgiler sağlamaktadır.
