n
our language the concept of “many”
indicates numerical sense and it takes on the meaning “ how
many, how much, how, lots of”.
We meet with it in some sentences like “to many years…”/
”Many summers passed by”/ “There are many personages who
came and went”/ “There were many closets at shore
houses”…
Thus, numerical sense is used by the word “many” and covers
the past and future at the same time.
I
wrote my many of articles reflects to the web site in one of the
many rooms of the Private Duygu Hospital which my mother stayed
because of hip break. Once she whose life takes nearly a century
told me “not yet” on one of her suffering nights
She felt that we were waiting her death. Her whole life was
embroidered on her weak and slender body. After 45 days since
her words she died. I became friends with most of the doctors
from the hospital, I was proud of them and the nurses also by
their orderliness and carefulness.
Another
characteristic of the concept “many” is that it integrates
time and saparates past and future when detailed.
It
reflects an aim as a whole depending on the way of use in a
sentence, which is an important quality.
I
catched the most suitable meaning of it in this sentence;
“Many
people will come and go from this world, but none of them will
be able to substitute Hz. Rasulullah and His Mirror.
With
wishes of peace and health…
