Turkish teachers taught grammar subjects through dialogs for a long time. But they didn’t use the texts enough. But today this situation has changed and teachers have started to use original texts which we use in our daily life. So understanding the structures of grammar have become easier. A man who is learning a foreign language man must to reach a certain level of vocabulary and build the structure of grammar. To reach this aim texts have a great role. Materials which using for teaching foreign language should contain different types of texts as possible. So that the students can learn different words about different areas. By using this method the students will learn features of grammar structures and they will see how they can use these words in the texts. +DA suffix has lots of functions. This suffix can indicate time, place etc. To realize the differences of these different using of suffix we need concrete examples. +DA suffix is very common in the advertising texts. Because of that using the advertising texts can be very useful when we teaching the functions of this suffix. In this study we aimed to show the functions of +DA suffix through advertising texts which we choose from various media organs. We also hope to determine how these functions can be useful in area of Turkish as a foreign language.
