A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

French language to the English during the formative period that preceded the establishment of Standard English. Die Frage, he says, nach der Art und dem Umfange des von dem Franzosischen auf das A ngelsachsische ausgeubten Einflusses ist weit verwickelter, als es auf den ersten Blick scheinen mag, und zur Zeit wenigstens diirfte sie mit irgend welcher wissenschaftlichen Genauigkeit gar nicht zu beantworten sein. Certain phases of the subject, it must be admitted, have been treated with scientific exactness. In the sphere of phonology we have the exposition of the phonology of the French elements in MidE. in the treatises of Sturmfels2 and Behrens3, to mention only the most important. But on a subject closely allied with the phonology of loan-words in English, the influence of French upon the phonology of native words, we lack a definitive treatment. That this influence operated in word-stress is certain. Note, too, for example, that AS. nemnan appears in MidE. not only as nemnen, but 1E ncyklopaedie und Methodologie der Englischen Philologie, p. 74. Heilbronn, 1888. a Der A ltfranz. Vokalismus im Mittelengl. bis zum Jahre 1400. A nglia, viii. 201 ff. 3B eitvage zur Geschichte der Franzosischen Sprache in England. Franz. Studien, V. ii.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
