چکیده:
The present research is focused on investigating the coverage of categories of Korn's typology as well as the existing symmetry or asymmetry in rounding harmony within Iranian (Razan and Tabriz) and Istanbuli varieties of Turkish. The main research questions are as followed: 1. Can the Turkish varieties be classified within Korn's categories or additional categories are to be added therein? 2. Is there a symmetrical system in rounding harmony in the varieties under consideration? The research results demonstrate that in spite of the similarities observed within the syntactic, morphological and … areas of the three varieties, within their photological areas differences are detected, according to which the three systems can be classified in triple hypothetical categories of A, B and C. Among which only the Razan variety illustrates a total symmetry in front and back vowels in transmitting roundness.

RJHLL/1022084 1- Introduction The present research examines the theory proposed by Korn (1969; presented based on the typological study of more than twenty Turkic varieties) titled Korn's Typology 1 regarding the feature harmony process in Rezvan, Tabriz, and Istanbul Turkic varieties, in order to investigate and determine the linguistic position or linguistic category of these varieties within the framework of this typology 2.
5-1-2- Investigation of rounding feature harmony in the Tabriz variety based on Kern's typology (1969) The vowel /o/, if the target vowel is raised, transfers the rounding feature in some cases and does not transfer the rounding feature in other cases.
5-1-3- Investigation of rounding feature harmony in the Istanbul variety based on Kern's typology (1969) The vowel /o/, if the target vowel is raised, the rounding feature is transferred, and if the target vowel is unraised, the rounding feature is not transferred.
