Özet: This is a comparative corpus-based study, investigating the frequency of occurrences of the Turkish structures subordinated finite clause with voluntative suffix ‑sUn and non-finite infinitival complement clauses with ‑mAsInI. Their usages are compared in terms of the illocutionary forces they carry when they are used with the verb iste- (to want). The results revealed that while voluntative suffix in subordinated finite clauses have 13 examples, the other form outnumbered it with 100 instances in Turkish National Corpus (TNC). Furthermore, the degree of their illocutionary forces and perlocutionary affects have been observed as showing differences.
