Form and Content in Revived Cornish: Reviews and essays in criticism of Kernowek Kemyn
ISBN: 9781904808107 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Kernowek Kemyn, a form of spelling currently promoted by the Cornish Language Board, has been subject to sustained criticism for nearly two decades since its inception. The form and content of the Cornish Language Board's publications continue to invite criticism and have inspired this volume. The essays begin with Michael Everson's review of recent Cornish Language Board typography, including the second edition of Ken George's "Gerlyver Kres," the New Testament in Kernowek Kemyn, George's "Gerlyvrik," and the recent and controversial "preliminary edition" called in Kernowek Kemyn "Bywnans...

Henry Jenner's Handbook of the Cornish Language
ISBN: 9781904808374 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This new edition of Jenner's classic "Handbook of the Cornish Language" appears more than a century after the book's first publication. Now that the Cornish Revival has weathered many storms, it is well worth making Jenner's ground-breaking work available again, copies of the 1904 edition having become rare and expensive. The book is not a mere facsimile. It contains phonetic transcriptions in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), to assist the modern reader in understanding exactly which sounds Jenner was recommending. It also includes three articles he published between 1873 and 1877,...

The Cornish Consonantal System: Implications for the Revival
ISBN: 9781782011859 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Because there are no native speakers of Cornish, there is always the danger that revivalist will shape the revived language according to certain preconceptions. This was certainly true of Jenner and Nance. Revivalists should always be careful to study thoroughly the remains of the traditional language, and thus to base their speech on what is found in the texts rather than on either of the other Brythonic languages or on their own preferences. This is as true for matters of orthography and phonology as it is for the lexicon. In this book certain aspects of the Cornish consonantal system...

Esperanto-English Dictionary: Esperanta-Angla Vortaro
ISBN: 9781782010074 / Esperanto / Miękka / 2012 / 502 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Esperanto, the most widely-spoken constructed international auxiliary language, was the creation of Ludwik Lejzer Zamenhof, who first published it in 1887. Today Esperanto is estimated to have between 100,000 and 2,000,000 speakers worldwide. The most complete Esperanto dictionary is the "Plena Ilustrita Vortaro," which is available both online and in printed format; but since the PIV is entirely in Esperanto, the need for a modern Esperanto-to-English dictionary remains keen for many Esperantists. Paul Denisowski's "Esperanto-English Dictionary" can help fill a part of that need, on the...

This book is for the most part a straightforward translation of the ninth edition of Roparz Hemon's Grammaire bretonne.

Geryow Gwir: The Lexicon of Revived Cornish
ISBN: 9781782010685 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 538 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. If one compares the vocabulary laid out in the handbooks of revived Cornish with the lexicon of the traditional texts, one is struck by how different are the two. From the beginnings Unified Cornish in the 1920s it appears that revivalists have tended to avoid words borrowed from English, replacing them with more "Celtic' etyma." Indeed the more Celtic appearance the vocabulary of both Welsh and Breton seens to have been a source of envy to some Cornish revivalists. From Nance onwards such purists have believed that English borrowings disfigured Cornish and in some sense did not belong in the...
