FOOTNOTES:
[1] We do not therefore approve of the poetical attempts of
Zamenhof, or the dramatic representation of Goethe's _Iphigenia_.
[2] For other comparisons, such as musical notation, chemical
formulæ, etc., compare the excellent brochure of W. Ostwald,
_Die Weltsprache_. Compare also L. Couturat, _Pour la Langue
Internationale_.
[3] Here and elsewhere the following abbreviations will be
used:-- G. = German, E. = English, F. = French, I. = Italian, R. =
Russian, and S. = Spanish.
[4] Concerning the criticism of Esperanto, cf. also Zamenhof,
_Pri Reformoj en Esperanto_, 1894, _represita per zorgo de E.
Javal_, 1907 (containing many important suggestions which the
Esperantists have now unfortunately forgotten); A. Liptay,
_Eine Gemeinsprache der Naturvölker_, 1891; E. Beermann, _Die
Internationale Hilfssprache Novilatin_, 1907; K. Brugmann and A.
Leskien, _Zur Kritik der Künstlichen Weltsprachen_, 1907; Couturat
and Leau, _Conclusions du Rapport_, 1907; L. Couturat, _Étude
sur la Dérivation en Esperanto_, 1907; Ido, _Les Vrais Principes
de la Langue Auxiliaire_, 1908; many articles in the periodical
_Progreso_, 1908; F. Borgius, _Warum ich Esperanto verliess_, 1908.
[5] "What language aimed at languages have destroyed." The remarks
contained in this chapter have been developed and applied to
the criticism of Esperanto in my _Étude sur la Dérivation_ (1st
edition, unpublished, 1907, 2nd edition in French and in Ido, 1909).
[6] The letters D, E, F, I, R, S, are the initial letters of the
names of the six chief European languages, and those placed after
any word indicate to which of these languages the corresponding
stem is common (D = Deutsch (German)).
