Excerpt from On Adaptation of Suffixes in Congeneric Classes on Substantives
Various attempts have been made to explain the form, some in recent years, e. G. By Joh. Schmidt in kz. Xxv. 16, and Solmsen ibid. Xxix. 358, note. Iregard them as unsatisfactory and omit their refutation. G. Meyer, Griech. Gramm.2 §3i3, says: 'attisch woég jedenfalls eine Neubildung ist bisher unerkl'art.' Very recently Brugmann, Grundriss ii. 450; griechischeegrammatik, §74, is of the same Opinion. I believe that attic-ionic nom. Mic foot is made in direct imitation of pan-hellenic 68o tooth,1 the point of contact being the meaning: bot/z are parts of the body. Designations of parts of the body exercise strong analogical influence upon one another, and occasionally the suffix of some one of them succeeds in adapting itself so as to be felt the char acteristic element which bestows upon the word its value. That is to say, when such a suffix has spread analogically to a greater or lesser extent within the category, then the meaning of the category may be felt to be dependent upon the special form of the suffix, or, stated conversely, the suffix may be infused with the Special characteristic of the category; after that, when occasion arises to form new words of this same class, the suffix is put into requisition as though it were the essential element which imparts to the word its special significance. This thesis, though stated narrowly for the present only in reference to designations of parts of the body, is sufficiently important to justify our dwelling upon it at length; it will in the end lead us to a much broader field than the one just indicated. First we shall assemble certain cases in which assimilation and adaptation has influenced designations of parts of the body.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into how suffixes have adapted over time, primarily focusing on their use in designating parts of the body. The author identifies a recurring pattern where words for body parts share similar suffixes, demonstrating that certain suffixes have become almost exclusively tied to body-related terms. The book argues that this adaptation is not random but rather reflects a process of semantic categorization, where words belonging to the same semantic field tend to adopt similar suffixes. This trend is particularly noticeable in the Indo-European language family, where suffixes like -r and -n have become firmly associated with body-part designations. The author traces the historical evolution of these suffixes, illustrating how they have been extended and modified over time. Through a close examination of specific examples, the book sheds light on the complex interplay between language, meaning, and the human body, offering valuable insights for linguists, philologists, and anyone interested in the evolution of language.
