Synopsis

Excerpt from Abridged Grammars of the Languages of the Cuneiform Inscriptions: Containing I.-A Sumero-Akkadian Grammar, II.-An Assyro-Babylonian Grammar, III.-A Vannic Grammar, IV.-A Medic Grammar, V.-An Old Persian Grammar

I must also acknowledge the help I have received from my friend Mr. Pinches, of the British Museum, who pointed out to me many things which might have escaped my atten tion, and who placed at my disposal his vast acquaintance with the texts.

If the student wish for a syllabary, I cannot but recommend that of Professor Sayce, still the best; but Mr. Pinches is preparing a very complete one, in which will be given the characters of various epochs and of all the different languages.
