As a developing country, (----) needs specialists in various fields especially the English Linguistics for the future process of communication with other cultures in the worlds. As a representative of Iraq , I will gain a great experience through my participation in (------) which is an international cultural project organized by( ------). It will grant me the opportunity to interact with people from different cultures and made me thirsty to know about other cultures. As a linguistic researcher I aim to not only reveal the speech acts that the language of terrorism in its two types ( ------- ) are being upheld, but also to compare and to show the effects of each one of these two types upon two different societies. I aim to carry out a theoretical and methodological in-depth analysis of the language of terrorism and how I analyze it using socio-pragmatic analysis. By doing so I hope to be able to give an insight into how people can understand the disruption that terrorists undertake in their speeches. Therefore, I strongly believe that getting a master's degree in this field will give me the opportunity to conduct several scientific researches that will sure upgrade the academic level in this area and will enhance my characteristics. When this happens it will bring me the utmost personal satisfaction in my life. Master Degree in the socio- pragmatic analysis of the languages of terrorism will enable me acquiring more theoretical knowledge, practical skills and become more competitive in the field of linguistics. This will assist me in utilizing my optimum capabilities and also fulfill my societal ambition, by helping and handling issues related to the language of terrorism. FUTURE PLAN My future plan is to get professionally involved in a socio-pragmatic analysis related to the language of terrorism. Therefore I would like to gain a deeper practical knowledge, hands-on experience in linguistics. I see this international scholarship as the best place to achieve my career objectives. In dealing with the language of terrorism there is an endless guiding process in our life. I am highly interested in studying terrorism from different areas and willing to give my very best on a daily basis with a friendly attitude . (----- ) is one of the most severely attacked countries in the world and it is also the place where I lived my 34 years. As a natural consequence, I want to study the socio- pragmatics of the language terrorism so that I can get back to my country completing my studies and apply my knowledge and skills to alter the concurrent situation. Deeply embedded in American life and traditions will enhance me to deal with this language because of the severe attack of the terrorists on (------). With courses set under the Department of English Language, I will have access to a wide array of studies both within and beyond my chosen major. I will design a course prospecting, guiding students about the danger of terrorism which is used the religious texts to justify their violence against humanity. In addition, I will thrill the importance of the relation between language and politics to construct our life. . DESCRIPTION OF THE FIELD
I am interested in studying socio-pragmatics because that field of study fits with my aptitudes, and, most importantly, desire. Socio-pragmatics is the study of language from the point of view of users and of the choices they make. Taking into account the problems they encounter in using language in social interaction and the effects their use of language has on other participants in the act of communication. Related to this area of studying, I will be able to formulate the motivation for which I candidate to this Field of linguistics. Due to the (------), I believe that I will have a solid foundation for a successful and fulfilling career, in which I plan to weld relationships across cultures and ensure that intercultural communication takes place effectively. .
The language of 'terrorism’ comprises a vast corpus of texts (speeches, laws, reports, policy documents, letters, emails, and websites), and draws on a great many assumptions, beliefs, myths, tropes and narratives. It also employs a variety of rhetorical and discursive strategies. Language plays an active role in creating and changing perceptions, cognition and emotions. As something particularly human, language moulds how we see the world; it is the main determinant of our perceptions and our access to concrete reality. Many of us complain that we live in an imperfect system of life which is full of terrorism, violence which favors the strong ones against the weak ones. What’s more grave is the fact that many limit themselves to only expressing these opinions, without trying to change anything. I certainly believe that confining ourselves with the life we are living, even if it’s full of difficulties, we are actually denying our desire of improving. The evolution is being realized by the discontented, and I am deeply discontented not only by the way things are working in the national plan, but also international. Deep inside me there is a burning desire of change! I want as much possible as I can to bring my contribution to our common sake. But it is impossible for me to realize this ideal without having a strong knowledge about this domain that I want to improve. I indeed enjoy the great intellectual challenge in the comparative study of the east and west, and I have even decided to make it an object of my lifelong exploration. Yours sincerely

hello I want from u to read this essay . I made some modifications on it and i want ur view concerning its style. And is it conceiving essay ? coz i will send it to obtain a sholarship .
SUSU After I have been graduated from the Teacher Training Institute in Al-Qadissiyah City in 1994, I worked for three years as a teacher in one of the of Al-Qadissiyah primary schools (located in the countryside). While I was teaching there, I noticed how violence, "both physical and psychological '', was spreading through the usage of the language of terrorism. This fact made me interested in the effect of the suppressing language on the pupils. I felt pity for those innocent pupils but I was unable to change anything because of the severe rules /restrictions imposed by the authorities on the educational institutions at that point of time. From the moment I studied my BA I decided to pull out all the stops and go on as far as I could, hence I earned the MA degree. I wanted to become one of the most outstanding students through my hard work and my college life that will be with stamina, diligence and perseverance. I continued my high education in order to have a wider knowledge about English, the language which I really love. I had completed my MA in Iraq after the war in 2004 in which I had suffered great deal. The disorder that followed the collapse of the dictatorial regime brought the country in a situation where violence was the dominating phenomenon. This state of the country was quite dangerous for a girl to develop her abilities and to be someone brilliant and having bright future. Again terrorism posed an obstacle for obtaining our knowledge. After I was awarded MA in English Language and Linguistics at 2004, I taught in the department of English Language at the same university of Al-Qadissiyah where I completed my undergraduate study and did my MA. I have almost been told I am a hard worker, especially when it comes to my college work, so having a variety of choices in regards to what classes I can take truly satisfies my thirst for conquering the next challenge inside the classroom. I have taught different linguistic courses .Over the past four years I have been working on different aspects of linguistics. Within the field of pragmatics, I have written and published researches in speech act theory, focusing on social dynamic interaction. My research studies are (''Inviting'' Speech Act as a Commissive – Directive Hybrid '') and (Linguistic Analysis of Supplication in Standard English and Standard Arabic with Reference to Liturgical Language). Comparative studies have always been my high priority within the field of general linguistics. As for my present and future work in linguistics, I am now concentrating my efforts on political linguistics. My current work is on the notion of confrontational arguments during (or under) the Cold War. I am interested in how the governments use language to construct their institutional identity and legitimize their policies. . While I was teaching, I began to feel the problems and the destruction of the lives of the young generation in the period of liberty. In the latest four years, three students of mine were killed when a bomb hidden in a plastic bag exploded inside a car. A roadside bombing killed two students. Three others were killed in attacks carried out by terrorists In 2006, I, in person, was hurted by terrorism when one of my brothers was kidnapped. The terrorists attacked him in the street. They forced him into the boot of a car in Baghdad . Many families have suffered from terrorism in Iraq and in different countries in the world. The usual kidnapping style is for armed militants to drive up with their faces covered to the victim’s house, office or shop, or sometimes corner him/her on the street. The victim is overpowered, and dumped into the boot. Indeed, the fear of being targeted again - and low expectations of getting help from fledgling Iraqi institutions - keeps my family from turning to the police, who are absent from most neighborhoods anyway. Instead, they seek assistance from the only authority visible here - the US military, whose troops aren't trained to deal with crime. But we get nothing. We believe that my brother is dead. This sustains me to deal or write about the language of terrorism. The threat of terrorism is supremely catastrophic. It is not just a threat of sudden violent death; it is actually a ‘threat to civilization’, a ‘threat to any progress, the humanity does towards prosperity ' a ‘threat to our way of life’, and a threat to ‘the peace of the world’.
