A Comparative Dictionary of the Languages of India and High Asia, with a Dissertation. Based on the Hodgson Lists, Offical Records, and Mss


Book Description

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.







A Comparative Dictionary of the Languages of India and High Asia


Book Description

Excerpt from A Comparative Dictionary of the Languages of India and High Asia: With a Dissertation Le but principal de mes recherches a done ete essentiellement pratique: toutefois Jose esperer qu'elles me seront pas sans utilite au point de vue de la philologie. Cette science s'est occupe'e jusqu'ici presqu' exclusivement des idiomes indo-germaniques et Semitiques, c'est a dire du langage envisage dans une seule de ses phases, et non pas la plus interessante. L'etude cles langues non-aryennes de l'inde doit, j'en ai la conviction, aboutir au classement d'un vaste residu linguistique (si je puis m'exprimer ainsi); elle fournira les bases d'une nouvelle science du langage, de meme qu'il y a quatre-vingt ans l'etude de Sanscrit aux Indes posa les fondements sur lesquels a ete eleve le systeme de philologie qui a cours aujourd'hui.
