Tirohia te wāhanga i raro nei, kātahi ka whakautu i te pātai i muri mai i te reo kotahi me te wāhanga:  Passage: Ko Ferdinand de Saussure tetahi o nga kairangahau reo e tino whakahuahia ana i te ao, he mea whakamiharo na te mea kaore ia i whakaputa i tetahi mea i roto i tona oranga. Ahakoa ko ana tuhinga pūtaiao torutoru ehara i te mea he raruraru. Na, hei tauira, ko tana whakaputanga mo te reo Lithuanian he mea nui i tangohia mai i nga rangahau a te kairangahau Lithuanian a Friedrich Kurschat, i haere tahi a Saussure me Lithuania i Akuhata 1880 mo nga wiki e rua, ana i panuihia e Saussure ana pukapuka (Tiamana). Ko Saussure, i ako i etahi kaupapa taketake o te reo Lithuanian i Leipzig mo te haurua kotahi engari kaore i taea te korero i te reo, na reira i whakawhirinaki ki a Kurschat. He patai ano hoki te kaha o te Cours ki te whai i a Saussure (takitahi). Kua whakaatuhia e nga rangahau ko te putanga o naianei me ona ihirangi he nui ake te whai i nga kaituhi a Charles Bally me Albert Sèchehaye hei puna mo ratou i a Saussure ano. I whakaako ia i te École pratique des hautes études mo nga tau tekau ma tahi i whakaingoatia ai ia hei Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur (Knight of the Legion of Honor). I te whakawhiwhinga ki a ia he tohungatanga i Geneva i te 1892, ka hoki ia ki Switzerland. I korero a Saussure mo te Sanskrit me te Indo-European i te Whare Wananga o Geneva mo te toenga o tona oranga. I te tau 1907 i timata ai a Saussure ki te whakaako i te Akoranga Reo Whanui, e toru nga wa ka whakawhiwhia e ia, ka mutu i te raumati o te tau 1911. I mate ia i te tau 1913 i Vufflens-le-Château, Vaud, Switzerland. Ko ona tuakana ko te kairangahau reo me te Esperantist a René de Saussure, me te kairangahau mo te whetu Hainamana onamata, a Léopold de Saussure. Ko tana tama ko te kairangahau hinengaro ko Raymond de Saussure.  Pātai: He aha te akoranga i whakaakona e Saussure?
