Объяснение
Mini-text: “Mahmud Kashgari was a great linguist who lived in the 11th century. He wrote a work called «Devonu lug‘otit turk». This book is an ancient dictionary of the Turkic languages, containing word explanations and examples. The work is still regarded as a valuable source for linguists.” Working on the text: pick out the historical fact (11th century), explain the words «lug‘at» and «tilshunos», make an outline: 1) the scholar, 2) the work, 3) its importance. Main idea: dictionaries of the past have preserved the history of our language.
