Synopsis

"A Simplified Grammar of the Polish Language" is a 1884 work on Polish grammar by Russian professor and writer W. R. Morfill. Contents include: "Phonology-The Polish Alphabet", "The Doctrine of Forms", "Nouns", "Adjectives", "Numerals", "Pronouns", "Verbs", "Conjugation of Auxiliary Verbs", "To Be", "To Have", "Conjugation of Regular Verbs", "First Conjugation", "Second Conjugation", "Third Conjugation", etc. This volume will appeal to those looking for an introduction to the polish language as well as information on its history and evolution. William Richard Morfill FBA (1834 - 1909) was Professor of Russian and allied languages at the University of Oxford from 1900 to 1909. He was the first such professor in Britain and wrote many books on the subject, including "A Grammar of the Russian Language" (1889), "The Story of Russia" (1890), and "Slavonic Region" (1904). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition for the enjoyment of readers now and for years to come.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Grammar is the first attempt of the kind in English. It is to be hoped that it may be instrumental in furthering the study of Polish, a noble language, which is still spoken by about ten millions of people. I have consulted with advantage previous works on the subject, written in Polish, German andF rench. I have found the Comparative Grammar of Miklosich, the Historico-C omparative Grammar of Malecki (2 vols., Lemberg, 1879), and the works ofO rda (P aris, 1856) andR ykaczewski (B erlin, 1861) very useful. Following the plan of theS implified Grammars, I have only given an outline of the language, but this outline will be found to contain all the chief rules, which I have endeavoured to make as plain as possible. The student of comparative philology will thus be able to form a correct idea of the structure of the language, and it may serve as a rudimentary handbook to any one who is anxious to road the works of such authors as Mickiewicz and Krasinski in the original.
