Excerpt from A Manual of Sanskrit Phonetics: In Comparison With the Indogermanic Mother-Language, for Students of Germanic and Classical Philology

The idea of publishing an English edition of my Handboeic der Indiscfie Klankleer (leiden, Blankenberg co. 1894) was suggested to me by others; but for that suggestion this translation certainly would not have been undertaken. In general I have followed the Dutch text: alterations have been made only, when there were positive inaccuracies in the Dutch edition or when an alteration had become necessary because of the progress of comparative philology since 1894. I have also considerably augmented the references to the scientific literature and somewhat enlarged the part on the accent. Some emendations are due to the recensions of Kern, Speyer, Zubaty'r [and Johansson], of whose observations and remarks I have made a grateful use.
