Excerpt from Éléments de la Grammaire Turke: A l'Usage des Élèves de l'École Royale Et Spéciale des Langues Orientales Vivantes LA langue turke est un dialecte du tartare, apporté par les Ottomans à Constantinople, en 1453. Avant et depuis cette époque, elle s'est accrue d'un grand nombre d'expressions tirées de l'arabe et du persan, que la reli gion musulmane, les besoins du commerce et les guerres fréquentes des Turks en Asie y ont introduites; mais à la différence de ce qui se passa d'analogue dans nos idiomes européens, lorsqu'ils s'enrichirent, en se les appropriant, de cette foule d'expressions grecques et latines qu'on y retrouve à chaque instant avec des modifications plus ou moins grandes, la langue turke a reçu, sans. Les dénaturer, tous les mots étrangers des tinés à représenter des idées nouvelles. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Diplomat interpreter Orientalist
He was born at Aix-en-Provence, France on the 3rd of June 1779.
He was one of the most distinguished pupils of Silvestre de Sacy, whose funeral Discours he pronounced in 1838.
Jaubert acted as interpreter to Napoleon in Egypt in 1798-1799, and on his return to Paris held various posts under government. In 1802 he accompanied Sebastiani on his Eastern mission; and in 1804 he was at Constantinople. Next year he was despatched to Persia to arrange an alliance with the shah; but on the way he was seized and imprisoned in a dry cistern for four months by the pasha of Bayazid. The pasha's death freed Jaubert, who successfully accomplished his mission, and rejoined Napoleon at Warsaw in 1807. On the eve of Napoleon's downfall he was appointed charge d'affaires at Constantinople. The restoration ended his diplomatic career, but in 1818 he undertook a journey with government aid to Tibet, whence he succeeded in introducing into France 400 Kashmir goats. The rest of his life Jaubert spent in study, in writing and in teaching.
He became professor of Persian in the college de France, and director of the Ecole des langues orientales.
Besides articles in the Journal asiatique, he published Voyage en Armenie et en Perse (1821; the edition of 1860 has a notice of Jaubert, by M. Sedillot) and Elements de la grammaire turque (1823 - 1834).
