Product Information

Excerpt from A Handbook of the Cornish Chiefly: In Its Latest Stages, With Some Account of Its History and Literature This book is principally intended for those persons of Cornish nationality who wish to acquire some kwledge of their ancient tongue, and to read, write, and perhaps even to speak it. Its aim is to represent in an intelligible form the Cornish of the later period, and since it is addressed to the general Cornish public rather than to the skilled philologist, much has been left unsaid that might have been of interest to the latter, old-fashioned phological and grammatical terms have been used, a uniform system of spelling has been adopted, little tice has been taken of casual variations, and the arguments upon which the choice of forms has been based have t often been given. The spelling has been adapted for the occasion. All writers of Cornish used to spell according to their own taste and fancy, and would sometimes represent the same word in different ways even in the same page, though certain general principles were observed in each period. There was a special uncertainty about the vowels, which will be easily appreciated by those who are familiar with Cornish English.
