Movies.  I picked up a new movie today at our local Migros.  I am not usually a Michael Moore fan as I find most of his movies about as honest as a Rush Limbaugh monologue.  To me they are both just two sides of the same coin.  None the less, his movie Sicko was on sale for 4.99TL and so I picked it up.  The  movie details Moore’s gripes with the American healthcare system, and it is for this reason that I bought it.  Finding sources of medical terminology can be difficult at best.  Though I haven’t watched it yet (first in English and then repeatedly in Turkish), I am hoping it will be a medical field/healthcare terminology bonanza that I will be able to soak in.  One more way to wander out into untapped pockets of the language.  Finding a good movie that has a definite setting in a particular field can be a great way to expand your vocabulary in that area.  Finding a couple of complementary movies or TV shows (a few episodes of E.R. or Law and Order for example) can create a great language exploration that is completely in your control - you hold the remote.
