XI.—Romance Etimologies

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  02 December 2020

Extract

Revewers hav not accuratly appraisd my Etimology ov the Romance Words for To Go. Inasmuch as the article appeard in 1904 and contributions to the subject seem rather scarce nowadays, I propose to take up the subject again.

I will express no opinion ov Horning's essay. He merely refers to a detail ov my article in a foot-note. Elise Richter has lately written ov “the solution ov the andare problem, which Horning sturdily attacks and which he has eminently advanst.” Just how, she does not say. But we used to hear ov la question ambulare, point-blank; so somhow a little ground is being gaind, whoever gets the credit. Schuchardt seems to abandon his monogenetic scheme by admitting that his tipe ambitare may be connected with ambire rather than with ambulare.
