Abstract

This study investigates Presupposition as a linguistic phenomenon in Kurdish Myths, focusing on cases where meaning is inferred rather than explicitly stated. The research is motivated by the limited attention given to the pragmatic deconstruction of Kurdish Myths within the framework of Presupposition. It highlights the role of Pragmatics in literary texts, emphasizing that literary discourse, like other forms of communication, relies on fundamental linguistic structures while incorporating pragmatic theories. The dataset consists of three Kurdish Myths — Helkay Name, The Seven Brothers, and The Raven of the Black Mountain—from the Helkay Name collection. The findings suggest that Presupposition functions as a crucial pragmatic tool in shaping the semantic structure of these Myths, revealing deeper cultural and contextual meanings. A descriptive-analytical methodology is employed to categorize types of Presupposition and their functions. The study is structured into two sections: a theoretical overview and a practical analysis of Presupposition in the selected Myths.
