Excerpt from A Critical Grammar of the Hebrew Language, Vol. 2 of 2 Thus at the very outset, and while forming the plan of his syntax, the grammarian cannot fail to discover that the task he has under taken is one of much greater complexity and difliculty than the etymology. The latter mdeed cfl'ers in itself the outlines of a lan, by means of the several parts of speech, which are to be consi ered and discussed independent] of each other. In the syntax, on the contrary, the mechanism 0 1 age is to be viewed in o cration, that is, each word must be comred with regard to the ations it bears to others and the means employed for their indication; but as these relations are of so diversified a character, and as the same form which denotes one of them is also used for many more, he finds that with whatever topic he may think to commence his osition, the treatment of some other is necessarily presupposed, so that e is utterly at a loss where to begin and where to end. As, however, no scientific investigation can hope to be successful which is not conducted upon a plan derived from the subject itself and from the nature of the inquiry, he must settle his mode of treatment, notwithstanding these embarrassments, before proceeding further.
