Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive and comparative analysis of the numeral systems used in Indo-Germanic languages. The author traces their development from a common proto-language and examines their variations across different branches. Drawing on insights from linguistics, philology, and comparative grammar, the book explores the diverse ways in which languages represent numbers, including both cardinal numerals (e.g., one, two, three) and ordinal numerals (e.g., first, second, third). The author uncovers patterns and connections within these systems, shedding light on the historical evolution of language and offering valuable insights into the cognitive processes involved in numerical thinking. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
