Dr. Mohammed Abdul Mashkoor stated that the establishment of this association was a dream in the imagination of many workers in the field of modern linguistics; because many Iraqi linguists, whether those who specialize in the study of the Arabic language or those who are interested in foreign languages, in order not to distract their efforts because of the lack of central planning, so there is an urgent need to unite efforts to develop linguistic studies in Iraq and keeping pace with the development of contemporary linguistic research, asserting that the Iraqi Linguists Association is one of the civil society organizations approved by the ministry of higher education and scientific research.
