Excerpt from A Compendium Comparative Grammar of the Indo-European, Sanskrit, Greek and Latin Languages, Vol. 1
This book is a translation of those parts of Schleicher's 'Compendium der vergleichenden Grammatik der Indogermanischen sprachen' which treat directly of the Indo-European original language, Sanskrit, Greek, and Latin: it was undertaken for the use of students of Greek and Latin Philology, on the suggestion of Mr. Peile, M.A., of Christ's College, Cambridge, to whom I am indebted for several hints and corrections. My thanks are due to Herr Gustav Voigt also, for help kindly given.
I shall be glad if readers will point out any mistakes in the translation.
