Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Messrs. Kluge and Lutz here offer a select glossary of English words showing in brief articles the derivation of each word and in some cases the changes it has gone through before reaching its present form. As 'an introduction to the history of the English language' their work has the merit of being concise and handy in form. It is not, of course, and could not be, a rival to Prof. Skeat's large 'Etymological Dictionary, ' to which the authors frankly acknowledge great indebtedness, but for commencing students it ought to prove a useful and indeed, fascinating work. Prof. Kluge has a great reputation and the merit (rare on the Continent) of a competent knowledge of English work. Thus he adopts Dr. Smythe Palmer's derivation of 'clever, ' a much disputed word. In describing it as 'not yet found in Shakespeare, ' he is hardly in accord with English idiom, though it is clear what he means. 'Quaint' should be referred to Latin 'campus' as well as 'cognitus, ' for it seems clear that it took on some senses from the former source as well as the latter. 'Cipher' ought to be referred back to its Arabic source; its doublet, 'zero, ' is not included in the glossary. 'Rather' might have been given under its positive 'rath, ' familiar as used in Milton's 'Lycidas' and elsewhere. 'Allow' ('allocare') is included, but there is no hint of the existence of the 'allow' which represents 'allandare, ' and is of much earlier use. We have not come across under this first letter any of the words such as 'alcohol' and 'alligator' which retain the article as their first syllable. The principles of selection adopted are not very clear, but we can hardly expect in any case to find more than a useful minority of the immense stores of English words, represented in a thin volume of some 230 pages. The student can easily add to his vocabulary later, and perhaps agree with us in finding some of the derivations debatable. Meanwhile a serviceable book of handy size on this important subject is a distinct boon. -The Cambridge Review, Volume 21 [1900]

Download or read book English Etymology written by Friedrich Kluge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-09 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Etymology: A Select Glossary Serving as an Introduction to the History of the English Language Our primer of English Etymology is meant to serve as an introduction to the study of the historical grammar of English. However manifold the advantages which the student may derive from Professor Skeat's Etymological Dictionary, it cannot be denied that it does not commend itself as a book for beginners. Though it is a work of deep research, brilliant sagacity, and admirable completeness, the linguistic laws underlying the various changes of form and meaning are not brought out clearly enough to be easily grasped by the uninitiated. We therefore propose to furnish the student with a small and concise book enabling him to get an insight into the main linguistic phenomena. We are greatly indebted to Professor Skeat, of whose excellent work we have made ample use, drawing from it a great deal of material, which we hereby thankfully acknowledge. As our aim has of course not been to produce a book in any way comparable to our prede cessor's work in fulness of detail and general completeness, we have confined ourselves to merely selecting all words the history of which bears on the development of the language at large. We have therefore, in the first place, traced back to the older periods loanwords of Scandinavian, French and Latin origin and such genuine English words as may'afford matter for linguistic investigation. In this way we hope to have pro vided a basis for every historical grammar of English, e.g. For Sweet's History of English Sounds.

Book Synopsis The Making of the Oxford English Dictionary by : Peter Gilliver
Download or read book The Making of the Oxford English Dictionary written by Peter Gilliver and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the history of the Oxford English Dictionary from its beginnings in the middle of the nineteenth century to the present. The author, uniquely among historians of the OED, is also a practising lexicographer with nearly thirty years' experience of working on the Dictionary. He has drawn on a wide range of sources-including previously unexamined archival material and eyewitness testimony-to create a detailed history of the project. The book explores the cultural background from which the idea of a comprehensive historical dictionary of English emerged, the lengthy struggles to bring this concept to fruition, and the development of the book from the appearance of the first printed fascicle in 1884 to the launching of the Dictionary as an online database in 2000 and beyond. It also examines the evolution of the lexicographers' working methods, and provides much information about the people-many of them remarkable individuals-who have contributed to the project over the last century and a half.
