It is clear that there are ever so many
ways by which the same result might be
obtained, so long as the principle is strict
ly adhered to that each case shall have but
one sign, and that the same sign is to be
used in the plural and the singular, while
the plural again is indicated by q sign of
its own. In Bengal and many other
languages the same principle is CARR
ed out with considerable consistency.
What applies to declension applies to con
jugation, to degrees of comparison, and to
derivation. All becomes regular, simple,
intelligible,' whatever set of s%ufixes, pre-
fixes, or inixes we adopt. Thus, to have
is lab in Volapik. Hence
