KEYWORDS: Charles Berlitz, Native Tongues, Languages, Learning, Writing Systems, Vocabularies, Language Families, History DESCRIPTION: From the dustjacket flap: Native Tongues is a unique storehouse of surprising, thought-provoking, fascinating, and useful facts about human speech and the written word. Renowned author and linguist Charles Berlitz ranges down the ages and over the planet, delves into living and “dead” languages, and dips into scripts lost and scripts found to bring you over a thousand unusual, witty, and informative nuggets.Discover that: • 2,796 languages and 7,000 to 8,000 dialects are being spoken this minute: but several centuries ago some 10,000 tongues were living. • Just over 400 systems of writing-not counting alphabets that have been lost-are known today. • Both Eskimo and Zulu have inflected vocabularies of 20 to 25 thousand words-thousands of words in excess of the vocabulary used daily by the average American college graduate. • Both Eskimo and Zulu have inflected vocabularies of 20 to 25 thousand words-thousands of words in excess of the vocabulary used daily by the average American college graduate. • “Mile” comes from Latin mille-“one thousand”-referring to a thousand complete paces, left foot and right foot, of the legion’s formal parade step, about 5.2 feet, the Roman way of measuring distance between towns. • Chinese is probably the most unisex of all languages in its pronouns, having the same word for he, she, and it. • English was selected over German as the official language of the United States by only one vote. • Today Navaho is the native American language with the most speakers in the United States-well over 100,000 and still increasing. CONDITION: Jacket shows moderate shelf-wear, with bumping to corners, edgewear, wear to the head and tail of the spine. Previous owner’s Library of Congress cataloguing sticker on the base of the spine. Previous owner’s bookplate on IFC. Small green-blue stain at the base of the IFC / IFEP, which may be from a slight overage of glue from the green cloth band over orange boards (or a long ago drop of water). Contents otherwise appear clean and unmarked. Would be improved by a library-quality bro-dart cover. A solid copy. FROM THE BOOKSELLER: Thank you for visiting the Dactyl Books eBay Store!
