When Wild Animals Lose Fear of Man

The fear wild animals have of man seems to leave them when other dan gers render them helpless. When high waters cover the bottoms along the Mississippi bear and deer and other wild animals have been known to seek the highest point and with water completely surrounding them lose all ear of man, or at least be come indifferent to his presence. In some instances they have seemed to welcome mans approach, seemingly feeling that he would be able to offer them protection.

'WOUyD": IT'S MODERN PEoyUNcIATIoN

Professor w. w. Skeat in Notes and Queries.
The modern" pronunciation OF wound is not
modern at all 1t preserves, very nearly. the
pronunciation of Afred's time and that OF the
Gothic wunds of the fourth century. it merely
differs by lengthening. The AS. wund was
pronounced with the in full with the same
uud the modern German Wund bund, geSund,
etc In modern English this short IL has become
the long in brood, food, etc; and that Is all
Wound already had its present sound in the
thirteenth century.
The chief clew is TO bear in mind that our
symbols are OF Norman origin. The symbol
ou meant, in Norman, precisely what it means
III modern French, viz. the long as heard in
group, soup, croup-aI comparatively modern
words in English. In all words of older use the

precisely agrees. OF these words. sound is one.
II has changed from form which we should
now spell SOOnd to the familiar sound. Similar
words noted by Sweet, are found, ground,
pound, bound with which compare the modern
German gefunden, Grund, Pfund, sebunden.
The question ought TO have been put thus:
How is il that the word wound has preserved
other words in -ound have changed regularly?
The answer is simply this, that the influence OF
