ies underwent a change as both local and non-indo-european languages came under linguistic scrutiny. language studies turned to universal linguistic concepts and to the idea of universal grammar as expressed, for example, in the work of the port-royal grammarians of the seventeenth century. these concepts of french rationalists were somewhat at odds with the english empiricists, who fostered descriptive phonetics and the grammatical uniqueness of languages. in addition, an important trend in the seventeenth century was the effort to compare and classify languages in accordance with their resemblances. the study of etymology also gained momentum but words were still derived from other languages haphazardly, by arranging the letters, especially those of hebrew, thought by many to have been the original language. the eighteen century early in the eighteenth century, comparative and historical linguistics gained more consistency. for instance, j. ludolf in 1702 stated that affinities between languages must be based …

t the lingua sanscruta and some of its resemblances to italian. others, such as b. schulze and pere coerdoux made similar observations on the resemblance of sanskrit to latin and european languages. the importance of these relationships came to the fore in 1786, when sir william jones, a judge in the english colonial administration, announced to the royal asiatic society in calcutta that sanskrit, greek, latin, gothic, and celtic were seemingly from the same origin which perhaps no longer existed. sanskrit philological studies were initiated in germany by w. von schlegel about the time the first sanskrit grammar in english was published. the linguistic study of this language set in motion the camparison of sanskrit with languages of europe, forming the first period in the grouth of historical lingistics and setting comparative linguistics on a firm footing. meanwhile, systematic etymological studies helped clarify and cement the family ties of the …

ious but sporadic attempts had been made to shed light on relationships between languages and their historical developments and the time was right for more cohesive views of historical studies. it is generally accepted that the nineteenth century is the era of comparative-historical linguistics v a century in which most of the linguistic efforts were devoted to this subject, led by german scholarship. the nineteenth century the best-known historical linguists of the early nineteenth century are the dane, rasmus rask, and the germans, franz bopp and jacob grimm. with these scholars comparative-historical linguistic studies of indo-european languages had a definite beginning. in his book uber die sprache und weisheit der inder published in 1808, friedrich von schlegel (1772-1829) used the term comparative grammar and in 1816, bopp published a work comparing the verbal conjugations of sanskrit, persian, latin, greek, and german. after adding celtic and albanian, he called these the …

nd developed, more fully than task, the notion of sound shift, which became the first law in linguistics and which has been referred to as grimms law, or the first germanic sound shift. besides, the work, published in 1822 and entitled deutsche grammatik, contained general statements about similarities between germanic obstruents, i.e., plosives, affricates, and fricatives, and their equivalents in other languages. j. h. bredsdorff (1790-1841), a disciple of task, tried to explain the causes of language change in 1821. he considered such factors as mishearing, misunderstanding, misrecollection, imperfection of speech organs, indolence, the tendency towards analogy, the desire to be distinct, the need of expressing new ideas, and influences from foreign languages. in addition, some of his ideas are still viable today. for instance, it is recognized that the tendency towards analogy, speakers desire for uniformity, for regular patterns, causes language to become more rather than less regular in …
