EZ

Something similar appears to be underway now in the Syrian provinces of Raqqa and Deir ez-Zor.

Last year, a polio outbreak in Deir ez-Zor raised concerns throughout the region about the spread of an epidemic.

A U.K. private security adviser said his firm had picked up that al-Chechen was increasingly working in Deir ez-Zor.

In Jordan, in Kuwait, in Turkey, not even a dog could wander into Iraq, but from Der ez-Sour we went where we wanted.

An Imam I knew in Der ez-Sour used to tell a story about a Jew who came to his mosque.

I don't want ter see ennybody put upon, nor noways sufferin', ef so be's I kin help; but thet ain't ennythin' stronary, ez I know.

But ef Jos keeps on, airnin' ez much ez he hez so fur, he's goin' ter pay the Injun part on 't, when he cums.

The sick allers ez took care on among them, they sed, 's long uz enny on em hez got a thing left.

When it come ter dat, we ain't ez much ez speaken ter um, an' here dey come, bangin' aloose at us.

Dey may squall en dey may flutter, but flutter'n' en squallin' aint done no damage yit ez I knows un, en 't aint gwine ter.
