Excerpt from Principles of Greek Etymology, Vol. 1
Among the minor alterations in this edition, we may call attention to the fact that the Sanskrit words are now accented. In view of the increased importance conceded to accentuation as bearing upon phonetic laws, especially since the publication of Karl Verner's important paper in Kuhn's Zeitschrift,' this will be recognized as a valuable improvement. It may, how ever, be worth reminding some readers that in the case of many Sanskrit words the accent cannot be determined either by rule or by authority, and that this is why many remain unmarked.
