In these works, the word “turned” often indicates a pivotal shift—whether it’s a physical movement, a change in attitude, or even a complete transformation of circumstance. For instance, in [1], “the cook turned and went away” shows sudden movement prompted by anger, while in [2], “turned her into the kitchen” underscores the forced change of someone’s role. At times the word captures shifts in focus or conversation, as when “the conversation turned to the Jewish question” in [3]. Elsewhere, such as in [4], “turned her mind to the stage” reflects a deeper, inward change of purpose. Thus, “turned” repeatedly marks key moments of transition throughout literature’s diverse narratives.
