Download or read book English Etymology written by Friedrich Kluge and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-08-02 with total page 242 pages. 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]
