Persian a Difficult Language.

OF the difficulties Of the language
OF Persia a traveller writes: The
words one uses in letter are almost
entirely different from those used con
versationally. and those in an ordinary
prose history are again different. Then
1t is almost impossible TO distinguish
the lenses; and lastly the adjective
Is generally indistinguishable from the
substantive. and the link between an
adjective and the term which it quail
fies Is the same as the sign Of the
possessive. For instance, the text,
This is My beloved Son may be read
in the Persian Bible. This is the Son
of My beloved without the slightest
violence to the grammar.
