Beschreibung

Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive collection of international words - those often borrowed from notable languages such as English, French, Spanish, German, Russian, Latin, and Italian - along with derivatives and compounds providing an in-depth analysis of their makeup and use across languages. Preceding the main work is a detailed grammar of what the author calls "Neutral Language," or Idiom Neutral, describing its pronunciation, orthography, and usage across parts of speech, including a chapter on word formation. The author goes on to describe the benefits of using Neutral Language: books or publications written using it can be read in their original language by nearly anyone without much prior study; it does not require translation; it has a much broader possible audience; and it can therefore be printed in greater quantities and at a lower cost. The author argues that this language can be used not only for written communication but also for spoken conversation, as demonstrated at medical conferences and among stamp collectors. This book is a fascinating study of language and is of interest not only to linguists but also to anyone interested in international communication, translation, and language study. 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.

Excerpt from Dictionary of the Neutral Language (Idiom Neutral) Neutral-English and English-Neutral

In publishing this Dictionary of the Neutral Language, some thing must be premised as to the origin of the latter, for very few are aware that there exists a well organized international society, to which the language owes its origin.
