Language And Its Study: With Especial Reference To The Indo-European Family Of Languages (1880) is a book written by William Dwight Whitney, an American linguist and Sanskrit scholar. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the study of language, with a particular focus on the Indo-European family of languages. Whitney begins by discussing the nature of language and its role in human communication. He then delves into the history of the study of language, tracing its development from ancient times to the present day. The book also covers topics such as phonetics, grammar, and syntax, as well as the relationship between language and culture.One of the main focuses of the book is the Indo-European family of languages, which includes languages such as English, French, German, and Sanskrit. Whitney explores the similarities and differences between these languages, and discusses the methods used to reconstruct the proto-language from which they all descended.Language And Its Study: With Especial Reference To The Indo-European Family Of Languages is a seminal work in the field of linguistics, and remains an important resource for anyone interested in the study of language and its history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
