{"product_id":"2000-english-turkish-proverbs-idioms-9781907962622","title":"2000 English-Turkish Proverbs \u0026 Idioms","description":"The Turkish language reflects one of the richest cultures in the world; it has given rise to an almost uncountable number of proverbs and idioms. Proverbs and idioms are a vital part of a country's culture which passes on from generation to generation. Proverbs arise from the past experiences of a society through a process of cultural accumulation; they provide a bridge between a society and its forefathers by reflecting past experiences in the present. Ignoring these proverbs will isolate new generations from their descendants; whereas, engaging with them will establish roots from the present to the past. Proverbs were first used by our forefathers after a long period of observation and experience; since their formation they have been used through the generations to explain or clarify specific and complicated situations. Idioms and terms explain a situation; they have their source in proverbs and stories. This book, in which I have arranged the proverbs and idioms alphabetically, has taken about six years to complete. However, I do not regret spending such a long period of work if it will be of use to linguistic students and to anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of either the Turkish or English language.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Cranmore Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50476024693010,"sku":"9781907962622","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_4dfdc79f-135d-4cda-a078-7b4f93921800.jpg?v=1730243052","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/2000-english-turkish-proverbs-idioms-9781907962622","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
