الصفحة 177 - Real reduplications of consonants, ie, reduplications of their sound, are, in all languages, extremely rare. In English they occur only under one condition. In compound and derived words, where the original root ends, and the superadded affix begins with the same letter, there is a reduplication of the sound and not otherwise. In the word soulless, the l is doubled to the ear as well as to the eye ; and it is a false pronunciation to call it souless (soless).
الصفحة 16 - ... perfection." Klaproth maintains, that by his investigations, "the universal affinity of languages is placed in so strong a light, that it must be considered by all as completely demonstrated.

الصفحة 15 - El Pa nostre de cada Dia da nous lo gui; I perdonau nos nostres Culpes , axi com nos altres perdonam a nostres Deudores; I no permetau, que nos altres caigam en la Tentacio ; Ans desllibra nos de qualsevol Mal.
