Learn the basics of grammar with this accessible guide, adapted for young readers. Written by the renowned French linguist Antoine Isaac Silvestre de Sacy and translated into English by D. Fosdick, this book provides a solid foundation for understanding the structure of language.
Silvestre de Sacy‹s (1758–1838) work on a universal grammar was intended as an introduction to general linguistics. Today, the additional explanation in the title »mis à la portée des enfants« would have to be »mis à la portée des étudiants« in accordance with the linguistic education provided at our universities. By referring often to phenomena from the Semitic languages and their classification as universal language categories, this work plays an important role in the tradition of the grammatica universalis.
