OF course, indispensable 10 intelligent us

few. The task is TO determine those which
are alone indispensable. and leave all the
others out. l have found it to be a gigan-

Proper names are another snag, which /

They cannot be expressed on the staff In

stand, according to the language Of the
country in which Cosmolangue might be
employed.

of Cosmolangue over NolapukT

very small portion of humanity can pro-
duce. There is not a single sound in Cos

Not the least Of Cosmolangue's advan-

the pruning out OF every word not abso-

fected / think it will enable one 10 talk
well on any subject with a vocabulary
of less than a thousand words. The sim
plicity OF its grammar is another feature
in which II is superior to Nolapuk. Its
scheme OF verb cOnjugation can be
learned In fifteen minutes, and the rest
Of the grammar IN an hour. VOlapuk
Grammar is as difficult as the German or
Latin. The rule for Cosmolangue pronun-

Perhaps the reader is now beginning
to think that Cosmolangue is mere
arbitrary grouping Of sounds. That is 10
say, its inventor has simply taken at ran
dom sections Of the diatonic scale, and
without rhyme or reason thrown them
together 10 make words II is true that
many Of the Cosmolangue roots are born
of nothing but the thoughtful judgment
Of their creator. But In constructing a
language designed for all nations and
races, how can arbitrary forms be avoid
ed? Suppose the Cosmoangue vocabulary
were founded without exception upon Ary-
an derlviues Il would still be open TO the
charge OF arbitrariness from those peo-
pies whose language springs from
source other than the Aryan families Of
tongues.
But Cosmolangue IL not so arbitrary
as II appears on slight acquaintance. The
root word may in many cases be a mere
within Of the author, but from that within
IS often unfolded a most perfect system
OF word building. Let us take as an ex-
ample the word Ladosllamlsol (tempta-
tom, which occurs above in the Lords
prayer. This is the analysis Of the word:
The times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1890-1903, 1893-12-10

You might do fast falafa Ia
They might do lasi falafa IA
From the above, which is a complete
conjugation OF the verb, IL is seen that
the following forms are described as
nnecessary-having no existence In Cos
molangue: The imperfect, pluperfect,
preterite anterior and future anterior
lenses Of the indicative mood; the prete-
rite OF the conditional as well as the
preterite and pluperfect Of the subjunc-
tive. and the present and past particle
pies The extinction Of these several
forms is not accomplished at the expense
Of comprehensibleness You can under
stand or make yourself understood in
any Of the modern languages just as
well without them. All Cosmolangue
verbs are congugated in exactly the same
way. There is not a single exception in
the language. You have only TO take the
verb in the infnitive, add the regular
examinations, and you are bound TO be
right. Take the verb To Give-Do. which
is the first person singular Of the ltai-
ian verb Dare, meaning 10 give.
I give mi do
I gave mi dofa
/ shall give mi dore
would give mi doremi
NAV give mi fala do
/ might give mi falafa do
An plurals are formed by adding the
particie 81 thus mi % is changed TO
rutsi (vel. IA 0hou) to fast (you), la
lshe) TO lasi 0hey). But nouns have no
plurals. The plural for all nouns is in
dlcated by a method which necessitates
the changing Of only one word, the def
mite article the. The definite article is
pluralized like lie in French to denote
the plural OF the noun which never
changes from its singular form. This
important feature is best illustrated
by means of French and Cosmolangue,
as follows;
T,homne La sidomi
les ho,nmes Lasi sidomi
La femme La sldonlla
les femmes Lasi sidomiia
Adiectives are not changed before plu-
raj nouns. Thus
lie bon homme La sol sidomi
Les hons hommes Last sol sidomi
la bonne femme La sol sidomila
Les BONES femmes Last sol sidomila
Adiectives are subject to deciension,
however. but not by means Of change
in their Examinations. The degrees are
expressed by prefixes corresponding to
Mus and lie in French. In this regard
Cosmolangue follows, in measure, the
principle Of the Latin tongues. Thus:
Good.
Better..........s...ss.. .ss'''''.''' eStuo o.,

II est grand do re falado
II est Mus grand do re reside falado

mas. When a word is formed Of two or
more particles the particles are united
by a quaver. In words of two syllaeles
the accent is on the first; in words OF
three or more the accent is on the ante
penutimate. The only exceptions to THIS
rule occur in the past, future ana conol-
tional form Of the verbs, when the accent
falls on the last syllable.
