ENGLISH PROVERBS


Give a dog bad name and hang him
Adamın adı çıkacağına canı çıksın
Barking dog never bites
Havlayan köpek ısırmaz
Your mother alone will be wail on you
Ağlarsa anam ağlar, gerisi yalan ağlar
You can't teach an old dog new tricks
Ağaç yaşken eğilir
Save up something for a rainy day
Ak akçe kara gün içindir
All that glitters isn't gold
Her sakallıyı deden sanma
Man make houses, women make homes
Yuvayı dişi kuş yapar
Better lose the saddle than the horse
Zararın neresinden dönülürse kardır
A rolling stone gathers no moss
Yuvarlanan taş yosun tutmaz
Cheats never prosper
Yalancının mumu yatsıya kadar yanar
A friend in need is a friend indeed
Dost kara günde belli olur
Cleanliness is next to godliness
Temizlik imandan gelir
Speech is silver, but silence is gold
Söz gümüşse sükut altındır
The early bird gets the worm
Sona kalan dona kalır
He that laughs last laughs best
Son gülen iyi güler
Once burnt twice shy
Sütten ağzı yanan yoğurdu üfleyerek yer
Good words are worth much, and cost little
Tatlı söz yılanı deliğinden çıkarır
Throw out a sprat to catch a mackerel
Kaz gelecek yerden tavuk esirgenmez
All his geese are swans
Karga yavrusunu şahin görür
As you make your bed, you lie on it
Kendi düşen ağlamaz
Spare the rod and spoil the child
Kızını dövmeyen dizini döver
Covards die many times before their deaths
Korkunun ecele faydası yoktur
The rotten apple injures its neighbours
Körle yatan şaşı kalkar
Bad news travels fast
Kötü haber tez yayılır
As you sow, so you shall reap
Ne ekersen onu biçer
Who pays the piper calls the tune
Parayı veren düdüğü çalar
Everything comes to him who waits
Sabreden derviş muradına ermiş
It's not over until the fat lady sings
Dereyi görmeden paçaları sıvama
An apple a day keeps the doctor away
Güneş girmeyen eve doktor girer

THE END OF PREP CLASS

First of all,I am happy with my new friends and teachers in Denizli.Before l came Pamukkale University,my English wasn't good enough for me because of the education in Saudi Arabia.Now,thanks to my English teachers,I learned new things and my English improved to some extent.It will be better next terms.Especially,I wanted to thank my Gulsen Teacher for her help when she understood my faults about English.She gave me some advice.If I am not here for next year,I will miss everything about Denizli.I also want to thank my friend who is in my dormitory.She is SONAY.She helped me whenever l wanted.She both corrected my errors and taught some important points.Finally,good luck for final exams...

LEARNING FOREIGN LANGUAGE


Language ,is a common way that helps someone to Express oneself in best way.As we know,language has an important role in our lives ,especially in child ages.Language has such a different structure that the best way for learning a foreign language is when we are child .Although many people think that learning a foreign language in young ages affects children negetively we think that these ages for learning a foreign language are the most effective periods.
Opponents ,who think that learning a foreign language in young ages is harmful for children argue that our children should learn firstly mother-tongue.They put forward this idea ,because they think that learning a foreign language can be a handicap to learn their own language .To some extent they may be right.However ,if we don’t give our children foreign language skills ,it will be too late to learn a foreign language in the future .In addition,the language that is learn in young ages will be permanent .Thus ,we should let our children learn a foreign language in young ages.
Some people who are against learning a foreign language in young ages also maintain that if their children learn foreign languages this can affect their performance that is in the other lessons in a bad way .Because ,they are already in trouble with the other lessons .They think so because ,it is logical that they should take primarily their main courses.To a certain extent ,they are right.On the other hand,it will be a preparation that they learn a foreign language beside their main courses.Moreover ,facing with a different language adds some excitements to their lives .Hence ,it is rational that children should learn a foreign language in young ages.
Opponents ,who are against learning a foreign language in young ages still assert that children shouldn’t learn foreign language in young ages .They think that languages are unneccessary things so their children learn numerical lessons such as maths and science instead of languages .On the contrary ,they are wrong languages take places in globalization ,so they don’t have trouble with their daily lives and it will contribute to their future jobs if they learn a foreign language in young ages.Furthermore ,it will be easier that putting extra things over the thing that is already laid foundation in young ages.Thus,it is important to learn a foreign language in young ages.
To sum up ,children should learn a foreign language in young ages,because it has many benefical aspects.One of them is that it will be late to learn a foreign language in young ages for children .The other is that it will be a preparation for future ages .Finally it will contribute to children’s future jobs,so the language learnt it young ages is permanent during the whole life.
