The Present Participle In Old High German And Middle High German (1893)

The Present Participle in Old High German and Middle High German is a linguistic study conducted by John Bascom Crenshaw and originally published in 1893. The book explores the use and development of the present participle in the German language during the Old High German and Middle High German periods. Crenshaw's analysis includes a thorough examination of the various forms and functions of the present participle in these historical stages of German, as well as a detailed discussion of its syntactical and semantic properties. The book also includes examples of Old High German and Middle High German texts that illustrate the use of the present participle in context. This work is considered an important contribution to the study of Germanic languages and is of particular interest to scholars and students of historical linguistics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
