A Turk (especially a Turk who is a member of the tribe of Osman I)
1Sinan-Reis, the implacable be-turbaned old Osmanli, held him in bitter scorn.
2The policy of previous Osmanli rulers has already been roughly defined.
3But such as it was, it strengthened the Osmanli's hold on his dominions.
4It takes better than Osmanli to conquer the men of Zeitoon!
5Such an invitation, however, did in fact precede the first Osmanli crossing in force.
6The Osmanli race, bred on conquest alone, proved good for nothing when conquest failed.
7For, internally, the Osmanli state went from bad to worse.
8He exploded the word pigs as if he had the Osmanli prejudice against that animal.
9During the ten years following 1764 Osmanli hold on the Black Sea was lost irretrievably.
10Now, after the centuries of domination, the empire of the Osmanli Turks was slipping away.
11The Count interposed his shield, and shouted in Osmanli: Out on thee, son of Isfendiar!
12It is one of the most beautiful things I know, and quite the most beautiful Osmanli building.
13Thus the settled Osmanli Turk exhibits Caucasian characters, while other so-called Tartaric Turks exemplify the Mongol type.
14Then came the Arab invasion, which was bad enough, but colossally worse was the invasion of the Osmanli.
15We, however, looking backward now, can see that by its losses the Osmanli state in reality grew stronger.
16What he ultimately accomplished, however, was something of much greater and more lasting moment to the Osmanli state.
