A Simplified Grammar of the Ottoman-Turkish Language: [1884]

Цитата:
Ottoman Language, A.jjLJ l2-c osmanlija, is the most highly polished branch of the great Turkish tongue, which is spoken, with dialectic variations, across the whole breadth, nearly, of the middle region of the continent of A sia, impinging into Europe, even, in theO ttoman provinces, and also, inS outhern Russia, up to the frontiers of the old kingdom of Poland. The Ottoman language is, in its grammar and vocabulary, fundamentally Turkish. It has, however, adopted, and continues more and more to adopt, as required, a vast number of A rabic, Persian, and foreign words (G reek, A rmenian, Slavonic, Hungarian, I talian, French, English, c.), together with the use of a few of the grammatical rules of the A rabic and Persian, which are given as Turkish rules in the following pages, their origin being in each case specified.
