One of the most important topics in linguistics is the comparison between two or more languages, so in comparative studies there are always similar points or characteristics to be identified. Nevertheless, each language has its special features. Thus, in this study, the researcher stresses upon the elements of the noun phrase in both Kurdish and Turkish language, despite the fact that both Kurdish and Turkishdiffer from each other in many aspects. Nonetheless the two languages share similar and different features when it comes to the study of noun phrases. The method that this research relies upon is `The Comparative and Descriptive Method`. The importance of this study lies within pinpointing similar as well as different elements of the noun phrase as they have been organized and categorized in each language. The study also sheds light on the reasons behind the differences and similarities of the noun phrases and what elements have constructed them? The other important point about this study is showing the determiners while organizing the noun phrase, as well as showing when the head comes before the determiner, or when the determiner comes the after the noun in both languages.
