This work is based on traces of aboriginal dialects in the Chinese language and ancient works such as the Erh-ya, Fang-yen, and Shuo-wen, in addition to firsthand reports by European travelers. The Mon-Tai, Mon-Khmer, Tai-Shan and Kuenlunie dialects are discussed in detail. The mutual influence of the language of the aborigines and Chinese intruders are also examined.

As an additional aid to the student he has rendered the Chinese expressions into both literal and free translations, hoping to lead the student closer to the meanings of individual Chinese words.

CW 183 Ekins, J. China's Place In Philology (中國在語言學的地位-歐亞同源): An Attempt To Show That The Languages Of Europe And Asia Have A Common Origin. 1871) 4711871500259 680
Through a philological analysis of the Chinese, Semitic, and Turanian language families, Edkins attempts to prove the veracity of the Biblical assertion that all men once shared a common language. Following introductory remarks concerning comparative institutions and geographical distribution of languages, the author proceeds to a technical discussion of the various languages. He asserts that the primeval language was monosyllabic and that this appears most strongly in the Chinese language, proof that the Chinese left Western Asia about 5,000 years ago. Semitic language developed later and had a syntactic influence on the languages of Southeast and Central Asia. Japanese, Dravidian, and Mongol are analyzed as representative of the development of Turanian language family Edkin maintains that the primeval monosyllabic language is still evident in the radical syllabaries of modern European languages.
