Excerpt from The Science of Thought, Vol. 2
In order to answer this question perfectly, we ought, if possible, to analyze the dictionary of a whole family of languages, the Semitic or Aryan, and show that the original meanings of their roots are really such as we have postulated. Hebrew has been reduced to about 500 roots,1 but it would be desir able that some professed Semitic scholar should under take to collect the roots for the whole Semitic family in its widest sense.

Excerpt from The Science of Thought, Vol. 2
It may be objected, no doubt, that all that has hitherto been suggested on the origin of roots and concepts is theory only, or a mere outline of the general purposes which the roots of any language might be made to serve, provided always that such roots exist, and that they possess the peculiar character which has been ascribed to them. It is easy to say that all roots must express acts, and more particularly such simple acts as constitute the daily occupations of a primitive society. The question is, Is it so, and can we by historical evidence prove that it was so in any of the languages best known to ourselves?
In order to answer this question perfectly, we ought, if possible, to analyze the dictionary of a whole family of languages, the Semitic or Aryan, and show that the original meanings of their roots are really such as we have postulated. Hebrew has been reduced to about 500 roots, but it would be desirable that some professed Semitic scholar should undertake to collect the roots for the whole Semitic family in its widest sense.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book probes the origin and meaning of Sanskrit roots, the foundational components that give rise to words in one of the world's ancient languages. The author examines both gradual phonetic change and distinct dialectic variety as forces that have shaped the language over time. The analysis reveals that at their core, Sanskrit roots express simple, everyday actions, reflecting the daily life of an early human society. This study provides valuable insights into the evolution of language, particularly its capacity to represent complex ideas through the combination of simple elements. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330140987_0
