Abstract

This study discusses the differences between the Turkish and English tourism brochures from linguistic point of view. It has been seen that the brochures as touristinformation texts require a language of tourism with some specialised vocabulary, and grammatical rules in an appropriately given discourse of two cultures, Turkish and English. Corpus studies should be conducted to help the development of tourism sector.
