‎The Brahui Language (An Old Dravidian Language Spoken in Parts of Baluchistan and Sind) Volume 2 Vols. Set [Hardcover] Volume 2 Vols. Set‎

‎Brahui is a language, Dravidian in structure but polyglot in vocabulary, spoken in some parts of Baluchistan and Sind, now in Pakistan. The existence of the Language and its speakers in that region has always posed a problem, not yet solved, to both the philologists and the ethnologists. The theory that the Brahuis are the rearguards or the vanguards of a Dravidian migration from North to South or South to North has now been abandoned. Nevertheless, their language is very important and deserves a serious study, more so for its isolation. The present work is a complete survey of this difficult and obscure language. The work is in three parts, viz. (i) Introduction and grammar, (ii) The Brahui problem, and (iii) Itymological vocabulary. In the introduction, the author has discussed, at great length, various Theories and hypotheses about the origin and migration of the Brahuis, the structure and composition of the Brahui language and its relation to Dravidian. Loan words and other borrowings from surrounding languages have been ably treated. The grammar is quite elaborate and comprehensive. All the elements of the language, e.g. the substantives, the adjectives, the numerals, the pronouns, the verbs, etc. have been fully analysed. Part two presents a Comparative Study of the Brahui language problem chiefly from philological point of view, taking the current Dravidian languages into consideration. The section on the admixture of the Brahui Vocabulary is very interesting, none the less the hypotheses of the author on the relation of the Brahuis with the Indus Valley civilization. Part three contains an Etymological vocabulary which not only shows the Etymology of words and gives their meanings in English but also provides with numerous examples from the actual speech.

‎The Ancient Language and the Dialect of Cornwall With an Enlarged Glossary of Cornish Provincial Words. Also an Appendix, Containing a List of Writers On Cornish Dialect, and Additional Information About Dolly Pentreath, the Last Known Person Who Spoke the Ancient Cornish As Her Mother Tongue‎

‎ABOUT THE BOOK:- Long-descended from Cornishmen, the writer, like others of his countrymen, has a clannish fondness for Cornish words and phrases. From May 1879 to October 1880, the compiler of this book wrote lists of Cornish Provincial Words, which, through the courtesy of the Editor of the “Cornishman”. These letters appeared to interest a good many persons, and lists of provincial words were often asked for, but compliance was impossible without printing, and so, a glossary in the form here given was then decided on. The writer has collected a number of words as spoken in Cornwall at this very time, and he has compared them with similar ones used by Chaucer 500 years ago. The resemblance is an interesting peculiarity of the Cornish dialect ; and for illustration, quotations from Chaucer are given for each word used provincially. A great many apparent l y barbarous , unmeaning, and uncouth words are evidently derived from the ancient Cornish language. By making comparisons between such words, and those formerly used by the old Cornish people, the writer has tried to make such obscure terms more clearly understood. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:- Fredrick William Pearce Jago (1838- 1892) was a scholar best known for his work, namely, the ancient language and the dialect of Cornwall, originally published 1882 by Netherton and Worth of Turo. He also published a Cornish dictionary in 1887. He settled at Bodmin in 1843 where he practised medicine.

‎MONIER WILLIAMS‎

‎ELEMENTARY GRAMMAR OF THE SANSCRIT LANGUAGE [Hardcover]‎

‎About the Book;-A Writer Has arisen in our own country competent to elucidate most thoroughly the difficulties of this subject. The greatest Sanskrit Scholar of his time, whose name the university of Oxford is proud to associate with its own in the excellent grammar which he has given to the public has added to his high reputation by his graceful of the English language to the exposition of the native system of grammatical teaching. It may be said of all this author’s numerous work, that as they abound in indications of surpassing genius, so they offer to the student of oriental literature the most valuable information on every topic of enquiry. It is enough to say of the present volume that it is the first really elementary sanscrit grammar ever published before the year 1846. Monier Monier-Williams, KCIE (1819 – 1899) was the second Boden Professor of Sanskrit at Oxford University, England. He studied, documented and taught Asian languages, especially Sanskrit, Persian and Hindustani. He was born in Bombay, the son of Colonel Monier Williams, surveyor-general in the Bombay Presidency. His surname was "Williams" until 1887, when he added his given name to his surname to create the hyphenated "Monier-Williams". In 1822, he was sent to England to be educated at private schools at Hove, Chelsea and Finchley. He taught Asian languages at the East India Company College from 1844 until 1858 when company rule in India ended after the 1857 rebellion. He came to national prominence during the 1860 election campaign for the Boden Chair of Sanskrit at Oxford University, in which he stood against Max Müller.

‎DUNCAN FORBES‎

‎A GRAMMAR OF THE PERSIAN LANGUAGE [Hardcover]‎

‎About the Book:- A Grammar of any language, adapted for a beginner ought to be brief and perspicuous, containing only the general and more useful principles of such language. It ought to be accompanied with easy extracts for practice, as well as a copious vocabulary. At the same time, the shortest Grammear is too long for a beginner: therefore, those parts absolutely necessary for the first reading ought to be rendered more prominent, by the use of a larger type. Lastly the work ought to be confined entirely to its legitimate purpose the instructing of beginners; not deviating into ingenious metaphysical and etymological discussions however interesting in their proper place: nor should it be over-crowded with superfluous paradigms of verbs,&c. so as to swell up the volume to an undue extent. About the Author:-Duncan Forbes (28 April 1798 – 17 August 1868) was a Scottish linguist. Forbes was born in Kinnaird, Perthshire and was brought up by his grandfather from the age of three after his parents and younger brother emigrated to the United States. Illiterate until 13, he showed no early signs of linguistic ability but despite this late start, at age 17 he was appointed schoolmaster of the village of Stralock. Shortly after this he attended Kirkmichael school followed by Perth Grammar School and the University of St. Andrews, gaining a master's degree from the latter. In 1823 he took a post at Calcutta Academy, but because of poor health he was forced to return to Europe in 1826. In 1837 he became Professor of Oriental Languages at King's College London and stayed at this post until his retirement in 1861. During his time at King's College London he also worked at the British Museum, cataloguing the collection of Persian manuscripts. During his lifetime he wrote a number of books and it is for these that he is most remembered. He had a hand in translating or editing a number of books in Urdu, Persian and Arabic, including a translation of Mir Amman's Urdu Bagh o Bahar, or Tales of the Four Darweshes, (which is itself a translation from the Persian of Amir Khusro), and of the Persian Adventures of Hatim Tai.

The oldest Sanskrit books are at the fountain-head of European literature. These are the four Vedas, regarded as the source of all other Sastras or sacred books. The Vedas are written in an Iambic measure of eight syllables, and the earliest of them have been assigned by Sir William Jones to a date as early as 1 500 years before Christ. The word Veda means knowledge, but though names of authors of the several parts were preserved, the whole was taken to mean inspired knowledge, &quot the self- evident word proceeding out of the mouth of God, this is the Veda.
