	LINGUIST List 9.412: State of Comparative Linguistics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		What Peter Daniels says may be correct but please please note that it does NOT in any contradict the thesis that the Niger-Kordofanian language family IS a valid (and I think uncotroversially valid) language family.
		The only dichotomy in the field of classification is between those who believe in this ridiculous and dangerous dichotomy (and who act on this belief, trying to "shout down" or read out their colleagues out of the field) and those who have a more accurate perception of the state of the field and its history.
		What I gather from Peter Daniels' comment is that he simply cannot accept that I can defend parts of what Greenberg has done and reject others--even though I have repeatedly said so in print as well as on this and other lists.

		Speech consists of two types of basic units: 'Phonemes' or units of sound, which are themselves meaningless, are combined into 'morphemes', which are meaningful units; so the phonemes /b/, /i/, /t/ form the word 'bit'.
		The spoken and written forms of a given language tend to correspond on one or more levels and may influence each other--as when 'through' is spelled 'thru'.
		Conversely, in spelling pronunciation, people may come to pronounce the 't' in 'often' even though historically it had been lost.

		Subject: ane transliteration dear Peter, several years ago Chayim Cohen suggested a system for email transliteration of Hebrew which was systematic and accurate but which most people on ane have not adopted and which I dont remember, but perhaps you can find it in the archive.
		For sade, S is useful because of the parallel with T and H for the letters transliterated with underdots, though of course c is "ts" throughout Eastern Europe -- but elsewhere it's k, s, and ch, so it can be confusing.

	LINGUIST List 9.1520: German Spelling Reform
		Peter T. Daniels, Re: 9.1517, Disc: German Spelling
		This latter was the usage in the Transactions of the Royal Society in the 1680s, at least, and I don't know when or why either practice was given up.
		GBS is one of the greatest literary figures of English literature, and for you, who has no status as a writer or a literary critic, to characterize him as "ill-informed" shows utmost poor judgment.

	VAN ROMPAY: Book Review - Nöldeke, Compandious Syriac Grammar
		And with an Appendix: The handwritten additions in Theodor Nöldeke's personal copy, edited by Anton Schall, translated by Peter T. Daniels (Winnona Lake, Indiana: Eisenbrauns, 2001; reprint of the 1904 edition).
		While a few post-1930 references (the year of Nöldeke’s death) point to Schall’s editorial work (as do some notes in which Nöldeke is mentioned in the third person), a small number of references to post-1966 publications, printed between square brackets, have been added by Peter Daniels.
		Daniels has added references to the recent editions of H.J.W. Drijvers [Old Syriac (Edessean) Inscriptions (Leiden 1972)] and H.J.W. Drijvers and J.F. Healey [The Old Syriac Inscriptions of Edessa and Osrhoene (Leiden 1999)].
