Abstract: The parallels that played a significant role in the formation of Turkish poetry and the study of their specific features are significant. The analysis of parallelisms based on poetic excerpts from the “Dīwān Lughāt al-Turk” provides a basis for a complete understanding of the ancient Turkic literature and its specific system, as well as the current state of Turkish literature. Parallelisms are formed in three main ways: alliteration, repetition, saj. In the quatrains to “Dīwān Lughāt al-Turk” phonetic, lexical and syntactic repetitions are used. The analysis of lexical parallelisms in the work provides valuable information about the literary environment of that period, the linguistic-artistic thinking of our ancestors.
