        The present study intends to study the syntactic changes resulting from the influence of Persian language on the Azerbaijani-Turkish compound sentences. The data were collected from authentic Turkish-Azerbaijani language sources and linguistic interactions of Azerbaijani-Turkish speakers in the central regions of Ardabil province (n = 30). Data analysis showed that non-verbal borrowing and Persian language articles have caused Azerbaijani-Turkish speakers to substitute their own language for two or more syntactic structures, patterns corresponding to similar and corresponding structures in Persian (right-sided complementary, analytical causative, syllable clause depending on initial article). Then, they have been selected and applied. The syntactic changes resulting from the influence of Persian language on Azerbaijani-Turkish are not unfamiliar to the language, but all of these syntactic constructions exist in Azerbaijani-Turkish, and their frequency of use has only increased with the use of allocation and extension strategies. The resulting syntactic changes, often for practical reasons, have been made in order to converge the Azerbaijani-Turkish language with the Persian language.   Manuscript profile
