Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Introduction to the Science of Language, Vol. 2 of 2 In the Welsh book of Taliessin, a manuscript of the fourteenth century, the bard declares that "there are seven score Ogyren in song," and Prof. Rhys points out that these are the same as the "seven score and seven Ogyrven," or roots, which, according to another Welsh writer, who lived a century or two later, "are no other than the symbols of the seven score and seven parent-words, whence every other word." But the doctrine that all our words are descended from a limited number of primæval germs or roots is far older than the Welsh bards. More than two thousand years ago the grammarians of India had discovered that the manifold words of their language could all be traced back to certain common phonetic forms which they termed "elements."
