The gerund affixes, which are frequently used in Turkish, are widely evaluated with infinitive and attributive verb in the category of gerundial or defective verbs. Besides their main tasks, these affixes stereotype by being added on some words and act like a derivational suffix. This event, which can be named stereotypes of affixes, is observed in words which mostly gained particle function on the gerund affixes. It has been found out on three dialects examined, that some gerund affixes derive the particles, which have grammatical meaning, by being added in the verb's roots and stems. Some of these gerund affixes are affixes, which are used commonly in three dialects. This partnership is not seen in some affixes. Also it has been observed, that some gerund affixes, which can be named as disused today and archaic, are used with the function "particle derivation".
