Art. XII.—The Gaurian compared with the Romance Languages. Part I

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

Extract

By “Gaurian” are meant what Mr. Beames, in his comparative grammar, has called the “Modern Aryan Languages of India,” but, as this last is too long a title for frequent use, and as the name, Gaurian, given by Professor Hoernle, has been adopted by Dr. Caldwell, I may venture to make use of it also. These languages, in order to make their origin, may also sometimes be termed the Neo-Sanskrit languages, as the Romance are spoken of for the same purpose as the Neo Latin or Novo-Latin Languages.
