The mathematical reresentation of languages can be possible using Formal Grammars. Almost all natural languages have word classes such as noun, adjective, verb. In addition to this one sentence consist of noun phrase and verb phrase. Noun phrase may consist of location, destination and source elements. Despite many similarities between the languages, there exist important dissimilarities in grammar rules of the languages belonging to different language families. In our study the most appropriate formal grammar representing Turkish language is investigated. Accuracy of the suggested grammars' rules is evaluated in two different corpus.
