Osman: A Linguists from Turkey.

Recently, i 'met' someone through the blogsphere who had a same interest with me in linguistics. He gave a comment on one of my posting about linguistics, and i give respond to that comment and went through his site. Then, i figured out that we had the same basic reason why we like to study linguistics. His name is Osman, a Turkey who is now studying at the Department of English Language Teaching (ELT) at a university in the south eastern region in Turkey.

Quoted from what he had said on his side, Linguistics and Language, why he likes to learn about language, i think we have arrive at the same reason why both of us choose linguistics as our field of study. Not only because because now we are taking linguistics course, but also because: "I love learning about languages, doing research on them and by means of languages, discovering new cultures of the world and communicating with other people on earth". This is what he said on his site.

Going through his site, it can be seen that he focusses his dedication on language and linguistics. Shares ideas about it to others, and sometimes gives a valuable advise to a 'beginner linguist', just like me. He is also Turkish Language Administrator and Turkish/Turkey/Turkish Language Lessons Forums Moderator on Phrasebase Language Site.

For him, every language is a new world which brightens our minds and unlock our imaginations. Why shouldn’t we enjoy them? So, he invite all of us to enjoy our world throught learning different language, out of our own language.
