(The Kurds who are descended from a timeless ancient civilization have nobility but the Turks, for example, have no nobility.
The members of the Kurdish noble families were well-educated scientists and researchers. For example, Prince Sureya had an agronomy degree from the Sorbonne
and his brother Prince Jaladet Bedirkhan had a degree in philology from the Sorbonne. Jaladet was multilingual and transformed the grammar rules of modern Kurdish
with his etymological works from the 1930s with numerous book publications and popular magazines that came out regularly for several decades,
such as Hawar (help) and Ronahi (light) )

“Kardu ve Kardyen kelimeleri, bugünkü ‘Kürd’ lafzının aslıdır; ‘kahraman’ ve ‘bahadır’ manalarına delalet ettiklerinden,
bu milletin şecaat-ı fıtriyeleri miras-ı ezelî olduğuna, mezhûr kelimelerin vech-i resmiyesi büyük bir delildir.”
