NOTE.
In the course of the following essay I have striven to be accurate in
acknowledging its obligations to my numerous teachers. In some places
however I may have unconsciously reproduced what I have heard or read,
— a mistake almost inevitable to those whose information is derived partly
from lectures and partly from books, — or in others equally unconsciously
I may be reproducing what I have not heard or read but what has been
already suggested, and accepted or refuted long ago. And further than
this, some of the principles on which my small superstructure is based
I may have regarded, perhaps prematurely, as the common property of
scholars and needing no formal acknowledgment. This is especially the
case with borrowings from the Orundriss der Vergleichenden Grammaiik.
To this references are generally given in specific points, but no number
of references could in the least express my sense of the debt which all
students of language owe to its distinguished author, Dr Karl Brugmann.
And I am anxious, in view of the one or two points in which I have ven-
tured to diifer from his authority, to acknowledge beforehand my share
in the stimulating influence his teaching has everywhere exerted on the
study of linguistic science.
In all that concerns Latin I owe very much to Dr Roby's lists of
parallel forms which have been constantly before me. The evidence in
Umbrian, Oscan and the Minor Dialects could hardly have been found
except in Biicheler's Umhrioa and Zv^taieflf's two handbooks, the Sylloge
Inscriptiomimi Oscarum, and the Iriscriptiones Italiae Mediae Dialeeticae.
Osthoff's Oeschickte des Perfects is of course indispensable, however much
one may differ from his conclusions.
The essay was written in March last as a dissertation for the Lan-
guage Section of the Classical Tripos, Part II, 1887, and has since been
thoroughly revised and enlarged by the Appendices. The last of these is
of course only printed as a suggestion.

INTRODUCTION.
1. The attempt made in the following essay to reduce to
rule a series of phenomena hitherto neglected or First princi-
unnoticed is one which, by this time, hardly needs -P'^*-
an apology even in England. It is now generally admitted
that the modern view of phonetic change is fully justified by
its results. The more or less a priori considerations by which
its supporters at first sought to defend it were of a kind whose
convincing power varies greatly with different minds and even
with the same mind at different times; but the mass of evi-
dence they have since accumulated is surely sufficient to
establish at least this principle, that sound-change, so far as
we know it historically, whatever possibilities we may reserve
for it in the abstract, happens only in accordance with certain
definite sequences which we call Phonetic Laws ; — to establish
it, that is, as far as any doctrine can be by purely inductive
evidence, a basis, however, which has proved sufficient for the
whole fabric of Natural Science. And we may perhaps notice
that the power of prediction, which is popularly regarded
as the crucial test of all scientific theories, may be said in a
sense to have been exercised successfully on behalf of the new
principles of the Science of Language. Fresh instances occur
every day of stray words that have at length been brought
home to their correlatives in other languages after having for
long resisted identification through some difficult change of
form or meaning, simp^f/ifficajuffiBc/w&ftfeave been led to expect,

that is, we have predicted, that the form which the original
sound would take in that language was the one which after-
wards has been recognised in this particular word. Conversely,
when we know precisely what origin or origins a particular
group of sounds existing in any word can have in the language
to which it belongs, and precisely what their correlatives are
in kindred languages, our field of search for cognates is im-
mensely narrowed, and if they have survived, always provided
our phonetic generalisations are correctly made, they are sure
to be sooner or later discovered.
2. The endeavour therefore to arrive at further generali-
Scope of tlie satioDS of this kind, whether in any particular
^^'"^V- instance it succeed or fail, may be fairly regarded
as a legitimate method of work, and single explanations and
inferences, which while strictly in accordance with the rules
of sound-change that we have already recognised, might never-
theless, if advanced for their own sake, be considered over
fanciful or unduly emphasised, may perhaps claim a more
generous indulgence if they help in any way to throw light
on the possibility of such a result. And in this case, whether
the general rule is finally accepted in the form in which it
presents itself in this essay is a matter of small importance ;
I shall be more than content if I succeed in achievincr two
things; if I can render any clearer the probability that there
is some rule to be discovered, and any easier for more ex-
perienced hands the task of determining its final form. It is
in view of the first of these objects that I have endeavoured
to rearrange under a new method of grouping many classes of
facts already well known ; as for example in dealing with the
Latin changes, most of the words I have discussed will be
found somewhere in the collections of Roby, Corssen, Bruo--
mann, Stolz, or Mommsen' ; for the Romance languages I have
depended entirely on Diez's Grammatik der Romanischeii
Sprachen, except for Italian. My second and more important
object was to collect new evidence on the question where it

had not been sought before, — not at least with any approach
to exhaustiveness, — namely, in the various Italic dialects,
especially of course in Umbrian and Oscan. This I have en-
deavoured to carry out as thoroughly as possible, that is in such
a way as to give with equal fullness what evidence there is on
both sides, against, as well as in favour of the conclusions which
commend themselves to me.
3. The title ' Vomer's Law in Italy ' suggests the origin of
the enquiry undertaken in what follows. The appa-
rent irregularities of the change of s to r in the
Teutonic languages were explained by Verner as due to differ-
ence of accent in the different words ; the Latin accent we know
to have prevailingly the same exspiratory character as the
Teutonic ; and an attempt to apply Vomer's method of expla-
nation to the Latin irregularities led me to the conclusion that
the exceptions to the rule were governed by a new set of special
conditions closely analogous to those which determine the
change of s to r in Sanskrit. My impression that in Latin it
was largely governed by accent was strengthened by the paral-
lelism of one or two of the Umbrian forms, and this naturally
demanded a detailed investigation '. The Appendix on the
history of s in Aryan and Romance is really a necessary piece
of evidence only separated for convenience. The change of s to
r at the end of words in later Umbrian is discussed in the
^ In speaking of tlie title I may perhaps deprecate an objection 'that
Verner'sljaw does not hold in the Italic languages for the other spirants (/)
and therefore presuma,bly not for the sibilants.' If no positive evidence were to
be had on one side or the other this a priori argument might be allowed some
weight, but it can hardly count for much as balanced against such evidence.
Besides it is clearly unscientific to demand that any particular phonetic cause
shall have exactly the same apparent effect in all the languages in which it has
any effect at all: it is, e.g. no evidence against the Joss of original cr between
vowels at some period in the history of the Greek spoken in Attica, that in
Laooniau every a whether original or hysterogen equally fell away; yet Attic
and Laconian in other respects are obviously far more closely related than
Italic and Teutonic. And, after all, in the still confused state of our knowledge
of the history of the aspirates in Italic (v. Br. Gds. § 389 Anm. which appears
to be a mere slip) it would need considerable boldness to assert that something
analogous to Verner's Law had never been in operation at some period of their
development. Digitized by Microsoft®

same place, as the essay is primarily concerned only with
Medial Rhotacism in Italic.
4. Before concluding this introduction by a statement of
Results hither- tte ' laws ' I shall endeavour to justify in the follow-
to accepted. ^Qg chapters, it will be convenient to review our
present state of knowledge on the subject.
The rule for Latin that s became r between two vowels has
a fairly large number of exceptions ; the only
methods of explaining them hitherto, so far as I
know, have been to treat them as borrowed words, to suppose
s reduced from an original ss, or to assume that the word first
came into use after the rhotacism had ceased. These of course
must still hold good wherever they can be proved, and the last
may be our only resource, provisionally, where we can detect
no other variation in the phonetic history of the sound, but we
are not committing any inconsistency in rejecting it if a more
probable cause suggests itself. Moreover there are a certain
number of words for which these assumptions are not merely
baseless, but almost impossible, as ndser, which Stolz^ mentions
with one or two others, while in the Grundriss^ they are passed
over in silence. But a glance at the list of such words given
on p. 74 below will shew that they are too numerous to be
neglected. In Umbrian again Breal notices asa as
the only exception to rhotacism between two vowels ;
Brugmann' following him, treats it either as a borrowing from
another dialect or as a 'graphische Altertlimlichkeit,' while even
Biicheler's* encyclopaedic observation has only detected three
other exceptions, the termination -asius, and the pronouns eso-
and pis-i. In reality, besides these examples, excluding words
in which there is any reason to suppose the loss of a consonant
before the s or an original ss, there are over a score of words in
the Iguvine Tables which shew s between vowels, aad several
well-known names of places in Umbria itself, one of which,
Pisaurum, is noticed by Roby, Vol. i. p. 60. In Oscan again
when it is written in Latin characters as in the Tabula Bantina,

INTRODUCTION. § 5. 5
z is used not merely to denote the sound of the Oscan T, i.e. ts,
but as a variant of s between vowels — presumably to denote a
voiced s. s also occurs between vowels on the same inscriptions,
and so far as I know no one has suggested any reason for the
variation except the carelessness of the (much-enduring) stone-
mason. With regard to the changes in Aryan and Romance,
reasons for doubting the explanations hitherto suggested aie
given at the end of this essay. Finally the history of medial s
before nasals in Latin can hardly be considered settled'.
5. The conclusions I shall endeavour to justify are as
follows :
A. Medial s between vowels
Results of

in *regezent, *foidezos,

rhotacising dialects, as in Osc. angetuzet,

and (ii) preceded by i or u or a long vowel
or diphthong, as in niris, quaerit, Furius,
niirus (gen. niirus), dirinait.
There is scarcely enough evidence to determine whether
this qualification extended to Umbriau and the other rhotacising^
dialects.
B. Medial s before nasals
1. which was kept in Oscan and Umbrian (Br. Grds. § 570),
2. in Latin,
a. when following an unaccented syllable was lost with-
out compensation (Br. l.c-), as in Gatmna,
/3. when following an accented syllable
i. arising before and (?) after the period of
rhotacism, was lost with compensatory
lengthening of the preceding vowel, as
in ahenus, primus, dumus (?),
ii. arising during the period of rhotacism be-
came r, as in carmen, v^rna, diiirnus.
I may add here two corollaries as to the date of the change
The Latin of the Latin accent, which, if correct, are a good
accent. ^jgg^j more important than the mere explanation
of the changes of s. They are discussed pp. 64 — 68 infr.
1. The Latin accent had become bound by quan-
tity, i.e. it could not go further back than a
long penult or antepenult, before rhotacism
began, that is before 450 B.C. {v.p. 61 infr.).
2. But it did not become bound by the number
of syllables, i.e. restricted to the last three
even when the penult and antepenult were
both short, until after rhotacism had ceased,
that is after 350 B.C.
There is further independent evidence as well as that of
rhotacism that proper names did not yield to these changes till
considerably later than the rest of the language.

I. The Phonetic relation of s and r ; and the history of s
before consonants in Latin.
6. Before proceeding to discuss the history of s in Italic it
is necessary to say a word or two on the phonetic aspect of its
change to r, which seems to have been unduly neglected. It is
usually stated, clearly as a generalisation from the (apparent)
historical evidence in various languages, that s (the breathed
dental sibilant) becomes r through the intermediate stage of n
(the voiced sibilant), and it is often implied that the change
happens only and always by this method. Even Erugmann
appears to assume this in discussing the Teutonic rhotacism*.
But phonetically there is surely no more reason why the voiced
z should pass to the voiced r than the breathed s to the
breathed r (rh). It may be said that the breathed r did not
exist in the particular languages in wbich s became r; whether
this could be proved or not, it is scarcely an answer to the
difficulty. We are still left to ask why it did not, if s would
naturally have giveu rise to it under the same conditions as
those under which z became the voiced r. The following quo-
tations give us sufficient data to explain the change, and they
say nothing whatever of ;? as a necessary intermediate stage.

8 VERNER'S law in ITALY. § 6.
(ii) 'The characteristic feature of r is that the friction
passage is formed as imjch as possible by the tip
alone. Hence the tip generally points upwards,
and there is a tendency to make the outer front of the tongue
concave, so as to prevent any front modification. The tongue
being thus shortened, there is also a tendency to form the con-
sonant further back than is the case with the other point
consonants. The medium position for r is just outside the arch
and it cannot be formed at all in the interdental position.'
Ih. p. 37.
(iii) ' sh is very similar to s but has more of the point
element which is the result of its approximation to
rh, sh is in fact s arrested on its way to rh [and
similarly the voiced zh is z arrested on its way to r]. This is
done by retracting the tongue somewhat from the s position
and pointing it more upwards, which brings the tip more into
play.... The normal position for sh is naturally between that of
s and rh, near the arch.' lb. p. 40,
(iv) ' The above account of the mechanism of s and sh...\s
The change of transposed '...by some phoneticians, 'chiefly on the
8 ^ sh under ground of the frequent development of sh in lan-
mjiuence of y. gy^gg q^^^ qJ g followed by y. But the point of the
tongue is clearly directed upwards in the change from s to sh.
Theories of the historical development of sounds cannot be
allowed to override facts that can be demonstrated by observa-
tion, and the change of s into sh under the influence of y may
be easily explained as the result of simple retraction of the s
towards the y position.' Ih. note, pp. 40, 41.
(v) ' The position of s giving sibilation to vocalised breath
Change of s produces z which differs in no wise from the oral
to r. action of s.'
' r as pronounced in England differs from z merely in the
narrowing and retraction of the point of the tongue. In Scot-
land, in Spain, and on the continent generally, r receives a
stronger vibration of the whole forepart of the tongue.' M. Bell,
Principles of Speech, pp. .53, 54 (quoted by Roby, Vol. I. p. 401).

PHONETIC CONDITIONS OF THE CHANGE. § 7. 9
The following rough lines then may be taken as indicating
the three positions of the tongue under the palatal arch.
7. It is clear therefore that the change from s to r, whether
both are breathed or both are voiced, is that of a p]^onet^ccon-
continuous retraction elevation and pointing of the ditions of the
tip and fore-part of the tongue, and that ^ is no " ""^*'
nearer r than s is to rA\ What then would be likely to cause
this movement ? Either (1) a mere carelessness of articulation
by which the tongue was allowed to slip back slightly from the
more or less protruded s position, and at the same time the hinder
half allowed to fall slightly so that the front became relatively
raised, or (2) the proximity of any sound which required a more
backward position of the tongue than that for s, and hence a
modification of the s either in consequence of or in preparation
^ In passing it is as well to note tliat the peculiar 'narrowing ' of the Eng.
lish z by which the tongue is gathered together more closely towards its centre
is (i) not found iu the continental z as in Fr. rose, and (ii) does not afieet the
general issue one way or the other. Its only effect is to make the hiss or the
vibration rather stronger, especially as (iii) it does not appear to have any
essential connexion with thS'SSJiS^l ^iMifiM^ than the breathed.
10 VERNER'S law in ITALY. § 8.
for the pronunciation of such a sound. These two purely
a priori phonetic conditions correspond very well to what we
find actually happening.
8. The first happens (a) when s sinks to r in consequence
Historical of lo^s of a stress-accent. The syllable containing
conditions of {^ jg qq longer articulated with so much care and
I'^'itro/ distinctness; it is more open to corruption both
accent. £j.q^ ij;g ^j-al and acoustic character than if it were
felt by speakers and hearers to be the most important syllable
in the word. Consequently if there is any tendency in the
language to draw back the s position to the r position, it will
have free play. Or again if there is no such tendency, but the
s happens to be in a position where a voiced sound would be
easier to produce, it sinks forthwith to z, so to speak nemine
contradicente. So that the same cause produces or rather
allows the change of s to ^ and the changes of s to rh, z to r,
but the former is not by any means the necessary intermediate
stage: s may sink to rh in consequence of a rhotacising ten-
dency, and then rh may become a voiced r in consequence of
vocal surroundings; this is quite as simple as to suppose the
order s > z > r, which however in Teutonic at least appears to
have been the historical course of the change. In the languages
we are dealing with, namely the Italic, r and rh cannot (with
any certainty at least) be distinguished, so that we do not always
know which of them was the final stage in the progress'. But
in Sanskrit we can distinguish them since the breathed r under
certain conditions experienced a further weakening to h, and
this arises from an original s quite as regularly as does the
voiced r".
^ Final rhotaoism would seem to be a special case due to loss of accent. In
Umbriau tbe frequent omission of tbe r in this position would seem to indicate
that, as in Sanskrit, under certain conditions (which the confused state of the
transmission on this point has greatly obscured) it was the breathed sound
(v. App. C). In the earliest period of Elean rhotacism (Cauer.^ 253, 258) it has
been noticed that p appears only before ju. and f , « remaining before vowels,
breathed consonants and a pause.
' Cf. App. B, and the following section.

HISTORICAL CONDITIONS OF THE CHANGE. § 9. 11
9. Again the same careless articulation may be caused
(0) by the adjacency of some other sound which
absorbs the greater part of the emphasis of the soundswkLh
syllable, as for example a long vowel or diph- "("sort em-
thong before the s, or which (<y) necessarily curtails
the full s-articulation. A clear example of the first is the
history of the Latin (original) ss after a long vowel which has
become voiced between vowels in many of the Romance lan-
guages, e.g. Ital. Juso, Fr. fusible from Lat. fussus^ (contrast
It. misso from missus, presso, Fr. empressement from pressus)
where the sibilant has yielded to the tendency to vocalise
sounds occurring between vowels because there was not enough
of the stress-accent on the syllable left to prevent it, after the
enunciation of the u. So in Latin, as we shall see later on, s
after an accented syllable yields to the influence of a following
i or M under the same circumstances.
The second cause of the weakened articulation, its curtail-
ment by an adjacent sound, varies considerably in .,
its effect in different languages. In most, I think, the articula-
of the Indo-European group the medial combina- ""'"•' ^"
tions sk, st, sp are among the most stable at least so far as
regards the preservation of the s or some equivalent sound
(e.g. Skt. stQi), sp{h), but cch) and where the s is kept here but
lost in other consonantal combinations it must be due to the
fact that the breathed character of the k, t,p favours the normal
prolongation of the breathed sibilant. But before other conso-
nants while in pro-ethnic Teutonic s or ^ was kept
equally before all except I so long as it followed an
accented syllable^ in other languages, at least in modem Eng-
lish it appears to be fully kept only before explo- M.oa.eTn Eng-

and half lost before nasals (contrast pris'ner, bus'ness, prismatic
with any of the words just given). I think it will be felt that
these [pris'ner, etc.) are a good deal nearer the sound in skinner,
brimming than lisping is to skipping, buzzed to budding. We
may conjecture that the sibilant in these positions would have
been completely lost by this time if it were not being constantly
Latin and restored by the influence of the written language.

to be abridged before all consonants except breathed explosives
and spirants. Contrast Skt. nldas and Lat. nidus with Eng.
nest : Lat. pono (for posno), Skt. nolo nama with Goth, asneis,
A. S. esne^.
The difference is clearly connected with the method of
dividing the syllables prevailing in the language^ The German
habit (attested by the terms ' open ' and ' close ') of beginning
every syllable with a consonant and therefore dividing as-neis
contrasts with the prospective assimilation usual in Latin.

position of the tongue. Instances abound. But
before discussing any of them an important distinction must be
cited, namely that between Prospective and Retrospective
Assimilation. In some, perhaps most, languages the former
predominates, in others, e.g. Sanskrit' the latter. And accord-
ing to this we shall expect to find the ' alterant ' sounds after
or before the s in any one language. Thus in Sanskrit we find
the change determined by the preceding sound*: in Latin on
the contrary we shall expect to find it determined by those that
follow. The class of sounds that exert this backward influence
are obvious both phonetically and historically. The Sanskrit

guttural k and cerebral (' inverted ') r convert the dental to the

the tongue towards the front and back of the palate

its tip from the extended s position. Anyone who will

prolonging each sound so as to be conscious of the change of
position to produce the next, will feel that his tongue is pushed
forward to pronounce the s and pulled back again for the i
or u. Further if the change towards the u or i position is be-
gun before the hiss is stopped by removing the blade of the
tongue from the gums, the s passes into sh, and if the backward
movement is continued till the tongue reaches the i or u position
without the complete removal of the tip we get r (h). Under cer-
tain further conditions the s in Sanskrit further passes to r.
In Latin a following i or u appears only to exercise this in-
fluence when either an i or u precedes the s so that the
blade of the tongue is already in the position to which it will
have to return after having formed the s, or the articulation of
the s itself is weakened, as we have just seen, by a preceding
long vowel or diphthong.
NOTE.
With much diffidence I venture to suggest that the influence of i and v,
(the former sometimes disguised in ^) is the true phonetic cause of the
variations which Brugmann finds so difficult in the change of s to ch be-
tween vowels in Old Church Slavonic, so that nosu ('nose'), rosa ( = Lat.
ros) would be as regular as the Latin nasns and rosa. A large number of
the cases of the changes of s to ch Brugmann already is forced to explain
by analogical influence, and it is not hard to account in this way for all the
examples he gives not following an (original Slavonic) i or u. Cf. especially
iecM=Skt. tesv,, Gr. rois, iSs^=Skt. tdsdm, Gr. ra-mv. This would also
explain the initial change of s to oh in some words, as due to the final u of
the nominative and other cases, and the i of still other cases, of the article
tu {to-mi, tomu, tend, ti, ty, techu, timu, temi), and of many cases of definite
adjectives like novui. v. Oriindriss, § 585. 2, Anm. 2, 4, 5, 6, 588. 2, Anm.

B. Changes of s before nasals in Italic.
11. This is the most convenient place to add what little
there is to be said as to the changes of s before consonants,
especially before nasals, in Italic. In Oscan and Umbrian it is
clearly retained before the latter, Osc. posmom, etc., Umbr.
ahesnes, etc. In Latin the rule appears to be that given above,
§ 5 B, namely that during the period of rhotacism s following
an accented syllable and preceding m or n became r, a change
strictly parallel to its loss in the same circumstances in a non-
rhotacising period, as has been pointed out already. The one
difficulty of course is. How did the words with s in
the words this position arise in the rhotacising period, if all
under discus- those containing it had already lost it ? The an-
swer is, by borrowing from another dialect. The
legitimacy of this assumption in general will be more conve-
niently discussed' when we are dealing specifically with the
Latin changes; here it is enough to point out that the very
small though, as I think, fairly certain number of examples
that come under consideration on this point, speaks strongly for
their being borrowed. And in the most important of them,
carvien ' a verse,' despite the recent suggestion that the r is
original, so that it would be the same word as carmen ' a wool-
comb'; the very fact of its juxtaposition with another word of
diametrically opposite meaning^ {active instead of passive)
seems to indicate that it was certainly not coined by the same
people. The advantage of discussing them here is that they
shew clearly that the change of s to r can take place inde-
pendently of any vocalising influence. ?i and 7n in Latin were
certainly more breathed than voiced sounds (e.g. sumpsi and
the Ital. difeso with breathed s from ns). The following seem
to be examples of the change to r before n and m.
' V. infr. §§ 43-4, p. 59 foil.
'■ Baehrens points out that the meaning ' division ' is a=: old as the meaning
' metrical stanza.' Without further entering on the discussion, it may be
observed that the words shewing CAS {castrare, etc., Skt. i-ns-tram) shew the
former meaning quite as well as those with CAR (Osc. eanicis ' partis ').

8 BEFORE NASALS IN LATIN. § 11. 1.5
carmen diurnus Privernum 1 urna ?
Examples, gernien ? hornus vernus ? ager Falernus ?
verna veternus ? hodiernus ?
Carmen has been already discussed. Germen may of course
simply have been formed from gero after the rhotacism. For
diurnus no word has survived which could supply the same
sort of analogy as veteris may have for veterrMs, though in this
last instance too the close proximity of meaning of the two
words suggests that the second may have been a borrowing.
Hornus is surely much better derived with Bticheler from the
common Italic word *os osis 'a year' (Umbr. ose, ustite, Pelign.
uiis, T. B. 4. osii), originally ho-os-nus, than from ver veris, for
* ho-vernus, because if even this derivation is to account for the
r it must have been first formed after the rhotacism had begun,
and therefore (v. infr. § 47, p. 65) after the first change of the
Latin accent so that it would have been pronounced *hov^rnus,
and it is surely improbable that the contraction should have
taken place in a word thus accented. It would stand on the
same level of improbability with ' dixti from dixisti, dixet from
dixisnet.' Further it seems more probable that the pronominal
ho- should have been in use at the earlier than the later stage
of the language. Lastly the meaning is more naturally 'this
year's' than 'this spring's' especially as applied to wine. If
then Biicheler's derivation be correct, the word is most pro-
bably borrowed since the word os appears to occur nowhere
else in Latin, so that all the external evidence points in the
same direction as that derived from the form of the word. For
verna no other likely derivation has been suggested as far as
I know except the one given by Stolz' connecting it with VE8
' to dwell ' {vesta, Skt. vas) which is rendered very probable by
the parallel of famulus, Osc. famel and Osc. faamat (Zv.
S.LO. 14. 1)' dwells '^

town in Volscian' territory may well contain an s-stem whether
or not it is connected with ver {*ves-7-). vernus may simply
be for *ves-nus and if so would have helped the substitution
of veris for *vesris. Urna Varro connects with urceus but
Vanicek may be right in tracing it rather to uro ustwm, but
of course even so it may equally well have been formed after
the rhotacism. If Falernus (in Campania) is connected with
the name which occurs in two other places in Italy, Falerii in
S. Etruria and Falerio in Umbria, the r is derived from s
(Falisci) and must be regarded as the form of the name given
to the district by the Campanians when adopted by Volscian or
Latin colonists. Hodiernus is a doubtful word altogether, but
may belong here.
12. We have now to consider the examples of (1) the
genuine Latin words which regularly dropped s be-
fore n and m, and (2) (?) the borrowed words which
may have done so after the period of rhotacism. They are
well known already and need only be discussed in view of the
question which of them belong to the latter category.
(1) pono ahenus (Umbr. ahesnes) deguno are clearly old
words. Perhaps dimico may rank with them, but very little
can be inferred from the changes of such prefixes as dis- which
are especially liable to analogical influence.
(2) viden satin cet. seem clearly modern. So may be
cdnus (Pelign. casnar). We have then one or two words in
Festus, casniena caesna (Varro) cosmittere (?) dusmus, which may
perfectly well be dialectic forms in use among the soldiery
{caesna of course would not be the Umbrian form but it mio-ht
be Oscan) or may have been completely introduced into Latin
from the same source. Triresmus for triretsmus, pesna petna for
petsna naturally are irrelevant. The most important word is
cosmis on the Duenos Inscription. This is later than the
change of s to r as all the eight commentators agree in taking
pacari as an infinitive', and Pauli assigns it at the latest to the
middle of the 5th century A.u.C, i.e. 300 B.C. The same com-
mentator says the Latin of tlie inscription is 'so rein dass es

Blicheler, Jordan, OsthofF, and Eing. (Dressel comes, Br^al
joins cosmisu.) But Jordan sees in the s a dialectic variation
which he traces also in noisi (= nisi) and einom ; the former is
allowed as possible by all commentators except Br6al and Pauli
who however seems right in explaining nois vois as old forms
for nobis vohis (on the strength of a gloss of Festus, nis — nobis).
But all other commentators take einom as equivalent to the
Oscan form einom for which Pauli would substitute ' ei nom'=
i nunc. This seems hardly so likely. But in any case it is
quite clear that cosmis must be of Oscan or Umbrian origin
whether it had or had not been fully adopted into Latin at the
time of the inscription. Dismota occurs in the S. C. de Bac-
canalibus but it may be only an etymological spelling.
It is possible that the same chronological relation holds be-
tween nidus didere cet. and Ardea ardeo (the latter g before voiced
is generally considered a secondary derivative of explosives,
aridus) and digero and mergus. OsthofF (Per/, p. 35) leaves it
as an altogether doubtful question why the r appears in mergus
and not in sido. In such a common word it must be confessed
that the 'borrowing' hypothesis seems very harsh, and the
solution of the difficulty may well be that the z was kept in old
Latin before gutturals, though lost with compensation before
dentals to which it would be more easily assimilated. C£ Skt.

13. We may now proceed to the main subject of the essay,
the history of s between vowels in the various dia- ^ , , ,
lects of Italy. These are best arranged in the order following sec-
of least complexity, beginning with Umbrian and ""**■
concluding with. Latin and Faliscan. That is to say, we shall
deal first with the rhotacising and then with the non-rhotacising
dialects, except that the Latin phenomena are postponed to the
end on account of their comparative complexity. The results
of the enquiry on the question of dialect-distribution are given
in a table at the end of the section on ' Minor Dialects ' (infr.
§ 39, p. 53) and have been further illustrated by a map of
Italy which I owe to the great kindness and ability of my friend
Mr E. Heawood of Gonville and Caius College.

II, S between vowels in Umbrian.
14. The question that meets us at the threshold of our
. Q enquiry, What was the system of accentuation that
can and Urn- prevailed in the Italic dialects ? has a very ready
brian. answer. Happily there is little to be said on the
point, but that little may fairly be regarded as certain.
In § 683 of the Grundriss Brugmann decides in favour of the
view that the original Italic accent on the first syllable of all
independent words was still retained in the separate historical
development of Oscan and Umbrian. This conclusion he bases
on the " weitverbreitete Vocalausstossung in den Schlusssilben
wie in umbr. pihaz = ' piatus,' osk. tuvtiks ' publicus.' " There
seems no reason for doubting his decision, and further evidence
of the same sort could be collected with the greatest ease from
almost every page of the Inscriptions, e.g. the suppression of a
short vowel in the second syllable as in Osc. uupsens from the
stem opes-. The conclusions as to rhotacism based on this
view, if they are correct, will supply an important proof of a
different kind. But the modern forms of geographical names
are decisive in its favour, e.g. Pesaro {Pisaurum), Fdlleri
(Fdlerii), etc.
15. It is necessary to preface the discussion of the Umbrian
Chronology of f°''™s with a very brief statement of what has been
the Tabulae and may be inferred as to the relative date of the
seven Iguvine tables from their general appearance
and contents.
Br^al {Les Tables Enguhines, p. 308) speaks as follows:
' Je classerais quant k la copie...les tables de cette fa9on. Les
plus anciennes me paraissent Stre III et IV.... Puis viendrait

nent a un dtat de la langue plus recent, est probablement parmi

dernier. Enfin vi, vii et I'inscription Claverniur peuvent ^tre
consid^rdes comme ayant 4t4 copides k une epoque ou les
caract^res ^trusques conimen9aient de sortir de I'usage.' The
evidence on the question generally may then be briefly sum-
marised as follows :
Table i is clearly a copy, abridged from a more ancient in^
scription, at a time when final s had become r. The engraver
has made one slip into the modem spelling, adiper arves (1. 28).
II a was copied at the same time as I and contains two
quite distinct parts though they were engraved at the same
time.
Of II b Br^al leaves us uncertain whether he considers it a!
copy or an original. The spelling seems consistent throughout
so that there is not the same reason for thinking it a copy as
there is in the case of
III and IV, where inconsistencies such as Pupdike Pupdi^e,
Jkiivina liuvina can scarcely be otherwise explained.
V a (i.e. the part in the Etruscan alphabet) ' may be con-
temporary with one of its two decrees which were not made at
the same date.' The second of them however in point of date,
whichever it is, need not necessarily be a copy any more than
the other. There is nothing to shew that either of them is not
a first-hand record of the decree it contains. They shew the
same stage of phonetic development as is represented by the
copyist of VI, VII. Hence it follows, since the Claverniur in-
scription, V b, is copied in Latin characters from more ancient
documents in Etruscan on to the back of v a, that the originals
of V b, VI, VII were older than V a.
VI and VII, though clearly copies (e.g. as being in Latin
characters but describing the same system of ritual as that
in i) may nevertheless be fairly appealed to as evidence of the

later stage of the language, because in process of copying the
text appears to have been modernised with very fair con-
sistency. For example siirur is substituted in vi and vil for
the isont of l, il cet. (Unfortunately there is no place where
the word is wanted in V a.) Now as to this there are only two
possible hypotheses :
1. that it occurred in the original (whether this was an
inscription or a manuscript, i.e. the decree confirming the ritual
re-enacted later) which must have been therefore a good deal
later (e.g. as shewing final rhotacism) than the date of Tabb.
I — IV, or
2. more probably that vi, VII are copies of ancient docu-
ments modernised in language as well as in alphabet, and
modernised so far as to substitute new for archaic words. This
second supposition is rendered probable by the relation already
described between vi, vii and I.
These brief notes will enable us to determine more pre-
cisely the bearing of the XJmbrian evidence.
16. In this and the following chapters then we are to ex-
^ , amine the evidence for and against the theory ' that
the evidence s between vowels remains in all Italic dialects (ex-
cept Latin) at the end of the accented, i.e. the first,
syllable of the word, but that elsewhere (1) in XJmbrian and
other rhotacising dialects it became r, while (2) in Oscan and
other non-rhotacising dialects it merely sank to the voiced
sound, z.' There follow lists of all words in XJmbrian —
1. with an originally single s between vowels at the end
of the first syllable {at least twenty-eight examples) ;
2. with s (probably) representing ss or consonant -F s be-
tween vowels at the end of the first syllable and elsewhere ;
3. with s between vowels not after the first syllable, of
doubtful origin {one example) ;
4. with r representing an original s between vowels not
after the first syllable {seven examples) ;
5. with r between vowels after the first syllable {seven
examples ofx derived from, s).

It will be seen that the lists nos. 1 and 4 will contain the
evidence in favour of my theory, nos. 3 and 5 the (apparent)
evidence against it. No. 2 is added for convenience. Where
any words require more than a bare mention, they are discussed
at the end of the list in which they first occur. The references
cite the Table and line (on the original) of the passage quoted,
in the usual way.
17. The following words in TJmbrian shew .9 between
vowels at the end of the first syllable. None are included in
which s occurs also as g or s, as for example tasez = tagez, or
those in which it is the initial letter of the second half of a
compound as in prosesetu. This list alone is surely enough to
suggest the inadequacy of the treatment which the question has
so far received (cf. § 4 supr.),

18. Some of these words call for further comment.
dsa. Brugmann's two suggested explanations are surely
both impossible. It cannot be ' an archaism ' because it
occurs in the later as often as in the earliest tables
while, as has been pointed out (§ 15), archaisms are
, generally modernised in vi and VII. And it is equally
impossible that it can be a borrowing from another dia-
lect in view of its constant use in the cultus of the
ancient Umbrian confederacy. There is no trace of any
other word which it might have displaced from its signi-
fication ; and all historical considerations protest against
the supposition that any Italic tribe should have needed
to borrow a word to describe the central feature of their
domestic and civil institutions. The difficulty of the
Latin word ara may as well be mentioned here. The r
seems clearly due to the influence of ar&e and its de-
rivatives aridus ardeo. The connexion of the words is
obvious ; cf Volscian bim asif= hovem arens ' hovem in
ara sacrificans^,' and the fact that this was popularly
felt is, curiously enough, attested by Varro^ 'ara ab
area sive ab ardore ad quern ut sit, fit ara.'
aso VI b. 50. ' erihont aso destre onsefertu' which Biicheler
renders 'idem arsum in dextro umero ferto' (p. 89) taking
aso (for asom) as meaning ' to be burnt ' and therefore
as a supine of the verb as- (quoted above from Volsc.)
for assum, but I know of no justification for supposing
a supine in -ssum from a root ending in s. The form
would have been astum like ustum gestum aseriatum
and all the rest. We must therefore fall back on
Biicheler's alternative suggestion both here and in the
Marrucinian inscription (Zv. I. M. 6) and take asum
(feret) as an infinitive of purpose, which is perfectly con-
sistent with its accusative form after a verb of motion,
the form being parallel to aferumfagiom Osc. ezmi, etc.,
and therefore containing only the s of the root. The

S BETWEEN VOWELS IH UMBEIAN. § 19. 25
Fiso Fisiu, cet. have generally been regarded as forms of this
kind, as the past participle of fido and corresponding in
sense to Juppiter Fidius. But the difference in form is
obvious. Are there other examples of deities whose
only name was originally a past participle ? Appellatives
which are only used in addition to some other more
substantive title are clearly distinct. We have Fiisu..
in an Oscan inscription, which may be a borrowed name,
but if not points to a single s, and Fisanius in another
(Zv. 0. 83) in a batch of inscriptions which regularly
shew doubled letters. We have once Fissiu (via. 43)
which may of course be the real spelling, though no
stress can be laid upon its single occurrence in this form
in VI and vii, cf infr. § 27, p. 34 seq.
Fisuvi etc. are probably connected with Fisus as Marruvium
with Marsi.
Vesune iv 3, Bilch. p. 162 compares Vesta. This and the
similar name Vesullia occur fairly often in Oscan in-

Bid i and u asiane pisi nesimei Koisis Voisinier and Aesis are
'cfimmin Um- *^® '^'^^^ words which oppose the application to Um-
hrian? brian of the further conditions under which s be-
came r in Latin. No stress whatever can be laid on the i in
the unaccented position of pisi and nesimei ; asiane would be
kept by asom asa, Koisis and Voisinier may be Sabine names
(c£ Buch. ad loc.) and if Aesis is connected with Aesernia the
e may possibly be nearer the original vowel. So that we have
really no evidence on the question.

the phonetic representatives of *dbserclnm and *opseto,
comparing the Oscan upsannam, Pelignian npsaseter.
But sepse vi b. 13 shews a p retained in a similar posi-
tion and it is possible that osatu may not be connected
with op- ; ci. frosetom (? audeo, to set about a thing). If
the derivation suggested for ooserclom be correct it is
another example of the s kept by accent.

It is equally an exception to rule in Latin where it occurs
only in proper names, which are generally regarded as intro-
duced (mostly from Sabine sources) after the period of rhotacism
had ceased. It is very common in Oscan, fluusasiais vere-

Biicheler takes as 'bessis,' but the use of the as to denote

capacity seems doubtful and -is is the regular ending of mascu-
line -io- stems in Oscan, so that it may well be simply derived
from the numeral, like triarius, etc. It will be noticed that
except eikvasia all the words in Umbrian denote measurement
and these are just the class of words which we find most fre-
quently borrowed. A strong confirmation of this view is the
word ezariaf (Btlch. ' escas ') IV 28 not denoting measurement,
which may very plausibly be regarded as shewing the genuine
Umbrian form of the suffix, as in Latin. Stolz considers -dsius
and -drills as distinct in origin and -drius may of course in some
cases arise independently, but since in some, e.g. nefdsius, we
know it did not, there seems no reason for denying the con-
nexion so long as it can be phonetically justified, as in the way
I have attempted. The fact that ezariaf occais on the same
document as sestentasiaru surely indicates that one of them is
borrowed. Mommsen' calls it 'a Sabine ending.' BrdaP, com-
paring the frequent Oscan endings of names, -asia (Taurasia)
-usium (Canusium, Ve^iusia), supposed the loss of an original n
as in Lat. formosus, etc. This is possible but perhaps un-
necessary. Aequasius and Equasius occur as gentile names on
Roman inscriptions ^
Apparent exceptions are ander vacose VI b. 47 {=anter

cates that here also s was originally a guttural.

dequrier all of which would be most naturally borrowed
from Latin, as occurring most constantly in the official
formulae of the Eoman administration. It is extremely
improbable that the process of narrowing which has been
carried so far in the signification of auctor, quaestor
should have gone on independently in two separate
dialects, especially in the case of qvaestor where the
change of meaning connotes a series of constitutional
changes in the republic.
euront nom. pi. masc. which only occurs in VI b. 63 side by

is the only form in this case which occurs from any pro-
noun in the Tables except puri pure (v a. b) and ^orse
(vi and vii). The masculine form corresponding to the
neuter eu would clearly be *eus which in the later stage
of Umbrian would be eur. We might suppose that
-{h)ont was simply added to this, but we have the forms
erarunt in IV 1 before final rhotacism had begun (no
example occurring in III, IV though final s is frequent)
andpm va. 3, pisher \ih. 41 after it had set in, which
shew that as a rule these affixes were regarded as in-
separable. The r therefore may be merely due to the
engraver under the influence of the uncompounded form
*eur as well as of *eruront the nom. pi. properly cor-
responding to the ablative eriront VI b. 48. But we
might regard it as an analogy form in real use with no
great stretch of probability ; it would be an example of
' recomposition,' and arbitrary, as such forms are, by the
side of pisi pisher, though we have no such example of
the simple pis surviving (except in the compound sopir)
as we have of eu eaf cet.
pure V a. 25 similarly is either a mis- writing for *pu-rse (as

clearly required since it occurs in the same inscription

The genitive plural erom (from the stem i-) may either be
due to the analogy of the genitive plural of feminine nouns, or
be explained as the other forms in r.
In ere eso- may we not see an example of a doublet due to sen-
tence accent in pro-ethnic Italic, eso-, accented, as a deictic pro-
noun, sinking to *ezo-, unaccented, when it was merely anaphoric,
which became ere in Umbrian and eizo- (ei in Latin characters
= {. (h) in the Oscan alphabet) in Oscan? There are many
illustrations of this kind of differentiation in pronouns, Eng.
1 This -de appears to have spread by analogy from the neuter forms, the d
originally being the final of the relative. Perhaps also from the old form of the
ablative in -d, which was lost except before this suffix {pu-e = qtio is not ablative
but instrumental). Cf. Thurneysen's explanation of Lat. idem.

that (deictic) thst (conjunction and relative) : them and 'em, or
indeed the neuter form of the demonstrative that appropriated
to the deictic meaning, the less emphatic masculine the being
used for the article. In German der 'that,' der 'the' (to say-
nothing of der ' who ') are only distinguished (except in one or
two of the oblique cases) by the emphasis with which they are
pronounced, and on p. 439, § 583 ad fin. of the Grundriss Brug-
niann refers to an exactly parallel alternation of s and r, in this
very pronoun (amongst others) in Teutonic due to exactly the
same cause. The weakening of the vowel from a full e to the
half sound variously written e, i, ei (h) would be produced by
the same loss of accent. The distinction of meaning is pre-
served regularly in Umbrian', but in Oscan, as in Latin is, the
anaphoric pronoun is occasionally used as a demonstrative ad-
jective (T. B. 7 eizeic zicelei, 11 eizac egmad, 24 eizazunc egma-
zum, the only three examples) but regularly (eleven examples
in Tab. Bant.) as a pronoun ' he, she, it,' while the s form, as we
should expect, only occurs in the proper deictic sense (eisucen
zicelud T. B. 16), since if it were used in an unemphatic posi-
tion the s would sink in Oscan, as it had in pro-ethnic Italic, to
the voiced sound, whereas the use of the s form in the emphatic
position would not exercise any such positive influence to con-
vert the z to s". The influence of the anaphoric form is no
doubt responsible for the i in isunt issoc etc. This last word
brings us to the only difficulty of this view, if difficulty it can
be called, the ss in issoc and esso each of which occurs once in
the Tables. But before discussing these forms we may notice
another certain example of sentence- accent, the infinitive
erom in Umbrian, ezom in Oscan and the forms
eram era cet. in Latin'. This coincidence in irregu-
larity clearly points to a common cause, the fact that the verb
'to be ' was as a rule pronounced, if not altogether as an en-
clitic, at least without a sufficiently strong inde-
pendent accent to preserve the original s. Suritr
' The compound eri-hont contains the anaphoric pronoun just as in Latin
idem. Should we' suppose an accent on the affix, erihont ?

again, which BUcheler connects probably enough with sveso,
comparing the Latin sirempse, is on the same accentual footing
in the sentence as igitur, the first i of which is now generally
derived from the a of agitur corrupted by loss of accent. This
completes the number of words in Umbrian iii which r repre-
sents original s between vowels at the end of the first syllable.
The question of the as however is important and is best dis-
cussed before we leave the Umbrian forms behind us.
27. It has been generally assumed that these two forms
sufficiently accounted for the s between vowels in
issoc esso. ~ . . . •
the remaining forms where it was written singly,
as proving that the ss was the original form in Umbrian, and
therefore also in pro-ethnic Italic, since the pronoun seems to
occur in almost all dialects. I think however it will be admitted,
after a glance at the evidence briefly discussed in what follows,
that though this assumption might have been maintained so
long as it seemed necessary from a phonetic point of view, yet
if it had to stand or fall simply on the general evidence in
support of the ss, it could not be defended with any sort of
confidence.
Issoc occurs once in vil b. 3, sve neip j)ortust issoc pusei
suhra screhto est 'si nee portarit ita uti supra scriptura est'
(Biicheler), and esso once in vi a. 43, in the formula ' tiom esso
hue peracri pihaclu {tertiu) — (subocau suboco) ' in the following
line in the same formula occurring with a single s'. But in VI
and VII the pronoun occurs elsewhere thirty-nine times, always
with a single s. In the same line as issoc occurs appei else-
where always spelt with a single p. In vi and VI [ we have
ennom as well as (more frequently except in Vll b) enom, but
the Oscan and Latin forms of the word (e.g. on the Tabula
Bantina, where double letters are consistently^ written where-
1 It might be suggested that the double ss in these two words was connected
with the fact that they were slightly 'out of system.' Issoc =' ita' and essu
might very well be so translated in the formula. So that the traditional spelling
held in the pronoun but gave way to the attempt at greater phonetic accuracy
in the derivative adverb.
2 E.g. mallom (perh. containing tlje suffix -no-) meddtr. nudicatinom (1. 16),
medicatud (1. 24) as Buch. has pointed out are quite regular, the double letter
being lightened in polysyllables.

ever pronounced but only a single n in einom) seem to prove
that a single n was original. A still more certain example of
double letters etymologically unjustified is avvei vi a. 3 which is
the only other example besides essu in vi, appei perhaps = ad-
que (cf. e? re) but Bucheler compares eVe^ which would place it
on the same level as avvei : in any case the double letter is only
written once. Where it is not justifiable, the reason for it
appears to be an attempt to express the accent on a short
syllable; at least I can conceive of no other cause for avvei
ennom, and it would seem at least a possible explanation espe-
cially in the case of s\ Again, apart from the difficulty of
explaining the ss etymologically, it is hard to see how it ca"ii
have arisen in pro-ethnic Italic ; I do not know of any words
in which it is supposed to be Indo-European, and the change of
tt to ss does not seem to have taken place in Oscan^ and there-
fore not before the separation of the common stock. And
further it seems improbable that any language should have
possessed two such pronouns as *esso- and *ezo- of such closely
neighbouring form and meaning but of difi'erent origin, yet this
is the only alternative view of the relation of the Italic originals
of the actual forms we find in Latin, Umbrian and Oscan.
Finally the evidence of the Oscan inscriptions is strongly in
favour of the single s. We have no example at all of a double
ss in the pronoun though it is of fairly frequent occurrence, and
essuf (which is not certainly connected, and occurs in Umbrian
in II and IV, there of course with a single s) only once and on
the same inscription as esidu, which is one otherwise carelessly
engraved. The only Oscan inscriptions bearing on the point
are as follows" :
Z. 0. 17 is the one just mentioned where we have essuf side

1. If the engraver is trustworthy that the two words are
distinct and that the pronoun has only a single s ;
or, 2, as seems more probable, that the writing is too

This view of issoc essu and essuf is not essential to the
explanation of ere and eizo- as due to loss of accent, since it
seems at least possible that even ss should be reduced to a single
z by the same influence.

III. S between vowels in Oscan.
28. We have Oscan inscriptions from Areao/Oscan.
1. Samnium, including the Frentani.
2. Campania.
3. To the North.
a. In Volscian territory, one name at Tarracina in
Latin alphabet but with the Oscan mode of nomenclature.
/3. Doubtful missiles at Asculum in Picenum.
7. Doubtful inscription in Aequicolan territory (Z. 0, 1)
which Mommsen thinks spurious.
4 To the South
a. NoHh Lucania.
;8. Bruttii.
7. Messana.
No inference therefore can be drawn from s or r between
vowels in geographical names south of the northern boundary of
Samnium and Campania.
The direct evidence in Oscan as to the influence of accent
is confined to the inscriptions written in the Latin Extent of the
alphabet, since the local character does not dis- olcanimerlv-
tinguish the voiced and breathed s, using x {z) timu.
only to express the compound ts. The Latin z represents both
this and the voiced s. Of course there is a good deal of indirect
evidence illustrating the forms in other dialects, most of which
has been already discussed in dealing with the Umbrian forms :

r, but it is most conveniently discussed in this chapter as most
of the evidence comes from Oscan'. To begin with however we
have the forms adgretus futus gnitus given by Festus which
shew t where classical Latin has ss, or s after a long vowel (Ost.
Perf. Exc. VI.). These Brugmann explains {Gds. § 501) as
contractions like cette for cedite, mattus for maditus. This view
seems at least somewhat arbitrary. If it were possible to regard
the forms as archaic or dialectic it would be much more natural
to do so. Further no example is quoted of ss in Oscan, only
Pelign. oisa (v. infr.), but on the contrary ulttiuf from the
Gippus Abellanus which Brugmann and Osthoff explain in the
same way as adgretus etc., though, as Bartholomae points out,
there is no analogy for such a form as *utitio. The evidence
seems to shew that tt was regular in Oscan.

these forms it is needless to enter here. We may hold with
Osthoff that they are all derived from the analogy of the per-

is regular on all inscriptions which shew any double letters.
' This section was written with the body of the Essay in March last (1887)
before the publication of Bartholomae's article on the question in Bezs. Beitrdye

I have added a note at the end of the chapter dealing directly with the theory

tt AND SS IN OSCAN. § 30. 41
Eomans in borrowing the word took the easier form and still
further lightened it by the anaptyctic vowel'. Futtilis would
be a regular adjective in -Hi- formed from the stem of the past
participle like fusilis fissilis missilis rasilis sutilis and many
more given by Roby, to be distinguished from those like utilis
agilis habilis nuhilis fragilis facilis formed from the verbal
stem. Further the words mitto gutta (guttur) littera (which
seems certainly the right spelling) are quite simply explained
as Oscan on this hypothesis, mitto is a frequentative (i.e. a
nominal from the past participle) from the root seen in 0. H. G.
midan; gutta a past participle, and littera, probably *littra in
Oscan, a noun from the root or stem lit- with the common in-
strumental suffix -tra-, Vike punt-tram^.
Against this there is simply no evidence in Oscan. The
only possible example of s or ss derived from tt is Fisanius
Z. 0. 83, one of a batch of inscriptions in which double letters
are regular, and Fiisu . . in Z. 0. 38 (v. supr. § 19, p. 25). Of course
these names might be very easily borrowed. Elisuist in Z. 0.
11, as the form shews, contains a stem lis found also in liisd..
In no other Oscan inscription is there any example of s or ss
derived from tt. In Pelignian (Z. D. 12) we have
the phrase casnar oisa aetate, the second word of '' '^""'"'
which is generally taken as a past participle of utor in a pas-
sive sense, 'having ended his life' or 'having enjoyed (great)
age ' (? aetate), the former of which is scarcely the sort of senti-
ment we expect on the tomb of a man who further describes
himself as Des forte faber ('dives, fortunae faber').
' Bartholomae supposes rutilus derived from Etruscan, but there is of course
no evidence for this beyond the phonetic possibility he maintains.
^ Ost. Perf. p. 557 gives the four words just mentioned together with littus
litus, glutus gluttire, mutus muttire, iuca hucca, Jupiter Juppiter, stupa stuppa,
mucus mucciis, sucus succus ; 'es ist ebeu wie gesagt ein problem fur kiinftige
forsohung, noch einmal die losung des ratsels zu fiuden, naeh welohem princip
die lateinische sprache zur auspragung soloher — sei es satzphonetisoher sei es
aiich dialektischei — doubletten gelangte.' After aU the riddle does not seem
very terrible, littus for litus may safely be ascribed to confusion with littera: in
all the others it is noteworthy that we have an accented u before the double
letter. In all but sucus the Romance forms vouch for a short vowel in popular
Latin, and it may at least be conjectured that the easier fi, §, took the place of u
when accented while the cojfiisSSgflf'tfekilMfM'Si^h that the vowel dropped.
42 VEUNER'S law in ITALY. § 30.
Sanskrit enas (' that ') = Latin oinos {' one ') ;
ekas ' one ' perhaps = Oscan eko- ' that.'
Why should not
Sanskrit eSas ' that ' (Gr. ojo?) = Pelign. oisa,
so that casnar oisa aetats = ' senex unica aetate,' which contrasts
very well with the ' few feet ' {pes pros) of soil he occupies ?
If this explanation be rejected as too fanciful we must
either take Bartholomae's suggestion {Bezz. Beitr. 12. 80) that
the spelling with s is due to Latin influence like the word faher
and the alphabet used in the inscription, or suppose that ss
was regular in Pelignian as in Latin and Umbrian ; the diffi-
culty would be that Pelignian has the t perfect as regularly as
Oscan {coisatens Zv. D. 29). But there is clearly no warrant
for doubting that tt was regular in Oscan. If so, it would natu-
rally seem to follow, pace Bartholomae's theory, that tt was
kept in pro-ethnic Italic, and only sank to a sibilant in some of
the separate dialects. Accordingly adgretus etc. would natu-
rally be regarded as archaic forms, perhaps of the same age as
Lases, Auselius, with others quoted by the glossographers, and
the newly-discovered Nmnasioi on the Praenestine inscription
(v. infr. § 34, p. 48).
Note. In the article I have referred to (' Die "\^ertretung des altital.
ss im Oskischen,' B. B. xii. 80) Bartholomae develops a theory that Indo-
European d + t,t + t cet. had already sunk to ss or some approximate sound
in pro-ethnic Italic, which in Oscan was once more converted to tt or J)]'.
His main concern is to shew that tt does appear in Oscan to represent
I.-Eu. t+t etc., which as we have seen is certainly the case. The rest of
his proof seems far more problematical. It is necessary to follow the
argument a little closely since, if correct, it affects some of the evidence on
the Latin change of s to ;•, though almost equally in favour of and against
my theory. Its loss and gain cau be estimated very shortly. Two words
in which s derived from tt is kept after an unaccented syllable and which
I had explained' on the view that the tt was kept in Latin till after 350
B.C. when the period of rhotacism was over, are now thrown on our hands
quasillus and excusare. The former like pusillus must then have come
into use from Oscan or Sabine later than 350 b.c, and the s of eMusare etc.
may have been kept by cmissa. On the other hand if ss (s after long
vowels) had replaced tt from the earliest times in Latin my theory gains

baktholomae's theory. 43
the not inconsiderable support of tlie mass of past participles like laesus
fusus rosus cet. in all of whioh we should then regard the preservation of
the s as due to accent, just as much as in caseus rdsa etc.
The arguments for Bartholomae's theory as opposed to the view I have
advocated may be very briefly summarised. In justice to him I should
add that he seems throughout to regard it a.s a matter of common agree-
ment, following Osthoflf and Brugmann, that I.-Eu. tt had become ss in
pro-ethnic Italic, and does not attempt to establish this point directly.
The only forms in which an admittedly original « or ss seems to him to
have become t are
1. patt-lens?] Zv. 0. 4 which he derives as an aoriat from *pat-sens.
2. The very doubtful "angetuzet (T. 'B.) = ingesser{nt." The meaning
of ' ingesserint ' does not seem very happy in the sentence where it occurs.
' aestimaverint ' is the equivalent usually given for the word from the needs
of the contest.
3. The perfect in tt which he compares, clearly with great probability,
to the Latin forms in ss, amassem etc. But it must be observed that even
from Thurneysen's investigations the origin of the doubled s in such forms
is hardly certain, though if we assume them to be merely bye-forms of
the s- or -sis- aorist, Bartholomae's view would give us a very satisfactory
explanation of the Oscan forms.
If his theory were merely that original ss became tt in Oscan it would
present no difficulties from my standpoint. Of the objections that follow
only those in Oscan would possess any weight against such a view and
these are not very serious.
Turning however to the arguments against the theory as it stands, we
encounter a good many substantial difficulties.
A. In Oscan.
1. aserum T. B. 20, where the first s is probably from -cfr- {ned-s-},
Bartholomae regards as a late formation.
2. meliissai Zv. 95, if correctly transcribed, he corisiders a Greek
word.
3. essuf he explains as for *eJcsuf, but the ss is of very doubtful
authority, v. § 27, p. 35 supr. So also n\e\ssimas Zv. 0. 41, which is not so
certain, as the s is elsewhere regular in this word. Of. § 18, p. 28 supr.
B. In Latin.
1. adgretus futus gnitus.
2. {f)ss remains in vorsus prOsa etc. whereas in words out of system,
if the s had existed from the earliest period of Latin we should have ex-
pected the regular change of rs to rr.
3. A very serious difficulty to the view that tt > ss was an Italic
not a Latin change is thcPfiBfefilS^ ^^f^sft^ in spelling even after long
44 verner's law in italy.
vowels down to Cicero's time. It seems equally improbable that the
language should have kept for four centuries either the sound of the ss in
that position, or the spelling after the sound was lost. Of course the ss in
writing may have been merely due to the influence of the forms after short
vowels like missus, but again it seems very improbable that the double
letters, which themselves were quite a late introduction, should have been
written except where they were sounded. The difficulty vanishes if we
suppose the change of it to ss only newly completed when double letters
began to be written. The long vowel would not lighten the consonant all
at once.
4. Finally there are the words quasillus excusare mentioned above
which are more difficult to explain on Bartholomae's hypothesis.
C. Generally.
1. No one supposes tt had become ss in Indo-European and there-
fore we cannot start with more than )>]) in Italic,
2. and if therefore this ]•]> became ss in Italic before the dialects
split, is it likely that individual dialects should exhibit the converse change
of ss to tt 1
3. The forms with tt in Latin (v. supr.) must have come from some-
where, and it does not seem hkely that the same people who failed- to
pronounce tt without Usping should have so altered a century or two later
as to change t to tt.
4. Briefly we have three certainties to argue from —
a. Original t r + < in Indo-European,
etc. J
/3. tt in corresponding positions in Oscan, and
y. ss in Latin.
Clearly the obvious conclusion is that
i. ItaUo tt
ii. remained tt in Oscan, and
iii. became ss in Latin.
This may seem a very small result of so long a digression but the be-
lief in an Italic ss seems to be a superstition that dies hard. It is to be
hoped that even its ghost may haunt us uo more.

IV. Rliotacism in the Minor Dialects.
31. Since the evidence from the minor dialects is so scanty
it might seem more logical to discuss them after
Latin, but there is very little to be said about them
and it is more convenient to place it directly after that of Oscan
and Umbrian, to which of course they are more closely akin.
Mommsen (Untert. Diall.) enumerates Scope.
Messapian
Oscan
Volscian
Sabellian
Marsian
Marnicinian
Sabine
Picentine.
Zv^taieff (Tnscrr. It. Med. Dial.) gives inscriptions from
Picentes Marsi
Marrucini Aequicolani
Sabini Volsci
Vestini Falisci
Peligni Capenates.
Mommsen (p. 96) describes the Messapii as ' ein vorgriechis-
cher den Kretern und Makedonern gleichartiger Stamm.' The
rest may be discussed in Zv^taieff's order, i.e. the geographical
from North to South, leaving the Falisci and Capenates to the
last as more akin to the Latin. It will be seen that in many
dialects, e.g. Volscian, where it has been assumed there was no
rhotacism on the ground of the occurrence of s between vowels
in several words at th^'®S#<fc|ytMe^''fe^E^yllable, the evidence for
4C vebnee's law in italy. § 32.
such a conclusion is greatly shaken by that of Umbrian and
Oscan already discussed. What newer results seem to be
afforded by the evidence are given by the table and map at
the end of this chapter.

There appears to be no final rhotacism in the Piceatine

Otherwise
1. So far as they can be said to be deciphered, they appear
to offer no evidence as to rhotacism, and
2. If they did no conclusions could be based on materials
so completely uncertain.
The names of places, etc., however in Picenum appear to
afford ground for supposing that in respect of rhotacism Picen-
tine occupies the same position as Umbrian \ Falerio (Mod.
Fallerone) was a municipal town only made into a colony under
Augustus (Plin. iii. 13. 18). The name can hardly be separated
from that of Falerii (Mod. Falleri) in South Etruria, where
Falisci shews that r represents an original s. The river Flusor,
too (Mod. Chienti), which appears in the Tabula Peutingea is
most naturally regarded as an os- es- stem like arhor^ derived
from Fluusa (Osc). It is not quite easy to see the origin of
the s if it is connected with Jiuo. If rhotacism was present
Cumerus (Mod. M. Gomero) may contain an original s and the
following names may be fairly regarded as further evidence for
the explanation already suggested of the words in Umbrian
which shew s between vowels after the first syllable.

(' arsum,' cf. § 18, p. 22, supr.) prove nothing; on the other hand
they are no evidence against rhotacism in the dialect. There
are no names in the district which help us, but geographical
considerations, as is c\B^-iti&e>t^ rsuc^smm at Mr Heawood's map,
48 VEIiNEll'S LAW IX ITALY. § 34.
point to the concluBion that rhotacism was absent from Marru-
cinian as from Sabine.
Sabine, etc.
34. On the only Sabine inscription (Zv. D. 8) we have
No rhotacisjti inesene (as Biicheler has shewn for mensene) and
in Sabine. Flusare = Lat. Florali. But the glosses (collected
by Mommsen) and many names we find to be distinctively Sabine
shew clearly that there was no rhotacism. Fasena, Auselius,
Lehasius, Yalesius, Volesus^, Volusus a.Te given by various autho-
rities as Sabine. Also Casinum Varro (LL. 7, 28, 29) interprets
as ' vetus.' crepero res creperae Varro says are also Sabine and
connected with crepusculum; if so they were probably borrowed
Sabine names '^ith the s form. Of Sabine origin are the host
at Rome. ^f gentile names at Rome in -sius which begin to
be very frequent on inscriptions under the Empire and had
doubtless been widely in use among the un-official classes a
good deal earlier. The influx is perhaps to be connected with
the migration of the agricultural population to Rome which the
reformers strove in vain to check or reverse. Such names are
Calvisius Numisius Vnlusius Aedesius Agrasiiis, cf also Maesius
'lingua Osca' Fest. Mlill. p. 136. It is curious to note a trace
of the origin of the name in the conjunction Calvisius Sabinus,
the friend of Pliny the younger, and also Oaesius Sabinus (Mart.
7. 27) Caesia Sabina (Cic. pro Caec. 4, 6), and this last name
may share with the Umbrian Caesena and the Latin Kaeso the
parentage of the numerous gentile names' beginning with
Gaes-, Caesennia' Caesellia Caesernia Caesetia Caesidia Caesiena
Caesilia Caesinia Caesionia.
In the new Latin inscription on the fibula from Praeneste
we have the dative of a proper name, JSfumasioi. If the date,
as Biicheler' holds with the explorers Helbig and Dummler, is

as early as the 5th or 6th century B.C. it might be considered
an interesting example of Latin in which s had not yet passed
to r. At that date it is immaterial whether we regard it as
Latin or Sabine.
35. The solitary Vestinian inscription (Zv. D. 9) offers
no evidence. From geographical considerations it y ,■ ■
probably ranks with Sabine and Marrucinian.
Pelignian (Zv. D. 10 foil.) certainly coincided with Oscan, e.g.

sign s however is always used even where " wnian.

cannot be a true Pelignian form though the inscription
was found at Sulmo.
Marsian.
36. Here again the inscriptions (Zv. D. 34 foil.) give no help.
We have s between vowels but only after the first syllable
esos (37), Caso Casuntonom (43), Vesime (41). Pliny (H. N.
17. 22, quoted by Mommsen) notices a similarity between the
Umbrian and Marsian met hods of vine culture, which it must be
confessed does not prove much. But geographically the Marsi
appear connected with the Latins and Volscians and therefore
very probably shared their rhotacism.
Note. In Zv. D. 39 (which Mommsen and others consider a
Latin inscription) the third letter of the name of the deity, j^fote as to
elsewhere called Vesuna, has been generally read as z. ' Vezune.'
It will be seen however on inspection of the facsimile (Tab. vi. 6)
that the inscription has been carelessly engraved with only a straight
tool (e.g. the o's are square •0-). Hence to make s three strokes
were required, ^, but the engraver' was careless about joining the
strokes at the right points and instead of ^ we get the lowest stroke
affixed too high ^ (the s in the last word libs) and the middle stroke
joined to the top too far forward Ti "X the sign in the supposed

its top stroke lost, and all of tliem are merely equivalent to tbe Latin
s denoting probably as in Pelignian both the breathed and voiced
sound.
Volscian.
Zl. The Aequicolan inscriptions, if they are genuine, give
no evidence. But we have the names Gliternum
Aeqman. (Y\m. iii. 17. 1) Amitemum which may contain -es
stems (v. supr. p. 16, § 11). Norvesiae proves nothing in our
ignorance of the Aequian accent and may have lost an n before
the s. The map shews that the geographical argument is not
very decisive, but it seems slightly to favour a connexion
between Volscian Aequian Marsian and Latin.
Mommsen states that 'rhotacism is strange to Volscian'
relying on the occurrence of s between vowels in the
scian. ^^jy inscription (the Tabula Veliterna), but it
is always after the first syllable, esaristrom (cf. Umbr. esona),
asif (' arens ') and the name Cosuties, and s occurs here in
Umbrian where rhotacism was certainly present. Generally the
dialect seems closely akin to Umbrian e.g. in the palatalisa-
tion of k before e and i (fasia), and the change of final -ns to f.
pihom recalls the Umbrian pihatu, etc. The geographical
names too, FrUsino (Juv. 3. 224, Mod. Frosinone) Casinum
by the side of Liris (which was originally *Loisis if it is to be
connected with lira) Privernwtn (p. 15) and the coin inscription
Auruncud in Sabine letters if it really is to be regarded as
a genuine Volscian form dating from the time when Aurunca
still existed, i.e. before it was destroyed by the Sidicini in
336 B.C.', all point to rhotacism under much the same conditions
as in Latin, and Auruncud would apparently shew that the
Volscian accent was the same as the Latin, though I do not
think any emphasis can really be laid upon this word. The
strong resemblance to Umbrian in other respects seems to me
the chief ground for supposing rhotacism in Volscian.

FALISCAN. § 38. 51
Faliscan.
38. Though there is a fairly large number of inscriptions
assigned to this dialect the evidence is somewhat Faliscan MM-
confused and it is difficult to arrive at more than a ""'*•
probable conclusion. The following are all the words that occur
which affect the question of rhotacism :
No. 55. Gesilia= Lat. Gaesellia.
56. Caesula.
60. Zertenea =Sertinia, cf 68 de zenatuo sententiad, which
seems to indicate the origin of the z, the preposi-
tion being treated as part of the word and the
accent of the compound falling on one of the following syllables,
dezdnatuo or dezenatuo (according as the Faliscan accent was
Italic or Latin). Sucb phrases as these caused a variation in
the spelling and the z appeared for initial s even where there
was nothing in its surroundings in the sentence to cause the
change of sound. This explanation implies nothing as to rhota-
cism since the originally sibilant character of the first sound
would be preserved in any case by the influence of the large
number of cases in which there was no tendency to change
it to r or z. The difference between s and z would be less
anomalous.
On this inscription (60) we find mate : for mater, and in 68
pretod de zen. sent, shewing that final r had a weak Final r
easily assimilated sound as in CretaQ and modern ""eathe ■
English.

This appears to be all the evidence on the question. It
Conclusion. leaves us three alternatives :
1. To consider Faliscan a non-rhotacising dialect, regarding
Menerva Glipearius as borrowed from Latin and 70 a as being
pure Latin as much as 70 b. Then Caesula as contrasted with
Folcozeo^ gives us the original relation between sound and
accent. This seems however unlikely since
a. Menerva occurs in a certainly non-Latin inscr., though
it also occurs in Pelignian, and
/3. the modern name (which wherever it is derived from
the ancient appears invariably to represent the pronunciation of
it prevailing on the spot) of Falerii is Fallen. This seems to
prove also that the Faliscans kept the old Italic accent on the
first syllable.
7. The geographical position of the Faliscans renders it
probable that they shared the rhotacism of the Latins and
Umbrians.
2. To consider Faliscan identical with Latin in point of
rhotacism though keeping the Italic accent. Caesula and
GaeselUa prove no more in Faliscan than in Latin as their
origin is so uncertain. We should in this case regard Folcozeo
as an Oscan or Sabine name with its original sound exactly
reproduced. Coiraveront in 70 b if it is not actually Latin,

TABLE OF DIALECTS. § 39. 53
Summary.
39. The dialects may be divided into five classes in point
of rhotacism, though perhaps to little purpose, since a charac-
teristic of this kind argues very little by its presence or absence
for the affinity of any two dialects in other respects. Indeed
the whole argument from geography rests on the 'chain' as
opposed to the ' tree ' theory.

something like intelligible order, none made such economical
use of the examp'es, i.e. there was none in which the same word
appeared so rarely under different headings. It is perhaps in-
evitable that there should be a certain amount of crossing
between the classes, since in many cases a particular change
may be the result of more than one cause, either of which would
have been singly sufficient to produce it, as a man may have
more than one motive for an action. Nevertheless in com-
paring rival schemes, that is clearly the most exact, and there-
fore in reality the simplest and truest, which can find a separate
category for each separate aggregate of similar cases, or, so
to speak, can house the different families of words within the
strongest and thickest party-walls. But inasmuch as the pre-
sent scheme was only gradually developed it is probably still
open to improvement, though for the reasons indicated I am
inclined to be content with it as a fair working hypothesis.
Accordingly in this as in preceding sections prominence has
been given to the difficulties as well as to the advantages of the
arrangement adopted. Of one thing however I aili convinced,
there is some definite rule, if not discovered, then waiting
discovery.
41. Before however proceeding to discuss the evidence in
„ - , the same way in this as in the other Italic dialects.
Introductory there are one or two general questions arising from
the fuller state of our information as to Latin
which must be noticed first. These are (1) the points in which
the change appears to present special phonetic characteristics,
(2) the legitimacy of the ' borrowing * hypothesis, (3) the date
of the change of s to r in Latin, and (4) the bearing of the
evidence of rhotacism on the change of the Latin accent.
42. Apart from the general phonetic aspect of the change
of s to r which has been already discussed, two

appears absent in Umbrian, /wreni corresponding to tjw change on
the Latin forent'. The rule is that i and U pre- * ""'' "•
ceding r that has come from s become e and S respectively.
Not much stress can be laid on such examples as tempus tem-
poris, cinis cineris, as the o in the first case probably and the e
in the second possibly, represents the original vowel, but in
sero ("rjfii) where the e is the vowel of the present-reduplication,
we know i was original, and it is extremely probable that this
was the case in the other two verbs of more or less parallel
form, gero and queror, where the Latinised Celtic gaesum and
the Latin quaeso quaero seem to shew the strong form of the
regular ai : i Ablaut in the Short A series, *giso and *quiso
(cf. miser : maestus) being ' 6th class ' or ' aorist ' presents, like
mic-dre liqu-ere cet. It is perhaps as well to remark that this
influence of r upon i and u is not in any way inconsistent with
their influence on s. r may be easier to pronounce than s in
connexion with i and u, but o and e easier with r than * and u.

It is however remarkable that an original r, as in mr, vireo,
pirus, hirundo, hirudo, does not exercise this influence on a
preceding i. The reason I suppose must be that the Latin r,
which came from Indo-European, was a genuine trilled conso-
nant, while the r which arose from the careless and, so to speak,
slight pronunciation of s had more vocalic character, and conse-
quently more influence on the preceding voweP.

(A. M. Bell, quoted by Koby, Vol. I. App. i.), and it does not seem much harder to
pronounce the i in birret than the g in merit : but where the r has its weak

An interesting example of tliis is the difference between the
Lat Flora J^atin Flora and the Oscan Fluusa\ The original
Osc. Fluusa. of both was *Fl6voza or Fldvuza in Italic (perhaps
shewing the same participial sufiSx as some trace in
the neuter iu Lat. papaver cadaver, and therefore representing^
the I.-Eu. stem *bhl- -uos-), which in Latin became immediately
either *Fl6vora or *Fl6vura, and ultimately in either case
*Flovora and, contracted, Flora, while in Oscan either *Fl6voza
sank to *Fl6vuza, or the latter was the form before the lan-
guages separated, and * Fldvuza became *Flouza, and ultimately
*Fluza written Fluusa. This seems to cast some doubt on the
derivation suggested for the Picentine river Flusor (p. 46),
since if the contraction had not taken place in Italic it would
probably have become *Fl6vura, and hence *F%uror as the
Latin Flora. We may suppose, however, that the contraction
had taken place in Umbrian before the period of rhotacism,
and this is also indicated by the Umbr. rusem- e', as contrasted
with the Latin ruris (Zend ravanh-) ihuris (^d'o??). This diver-
gence between the influence, or rather the date of the contrac-
tive influence, of accent in Latin and the other Italic dialects is
further indicated by the Latin ^ 6per-is, humerus, ti'dmerus by
the side of the Umbrian onse and the Oscan udpsannaTn
l>i lovfMcTifi, and need not surprise us more than the general
„, , , divergence of Latin accent from the Italic, which
Umbrian rho- was preserved in the other dialects. At a time
when accent was shifting, as it must have done in
distinguished from that of her herd, visitor word. Note that the pronunciation
of stirring, etc. is due to the influence of stir, etc.
^ Note that of course s in the Oscan alphabet may represent either the
voiced or the breathed sound.
^ It is scarcely necessary to observe that it does not represent the I.-Eu.
feminine form, but an Italic feminine formed from the masculine stem, i.e. the
noun which became in Latin ^os.

diately before the z would not it is true (§ 26, p. 33) convert it to the breathed
sound but it certainly would prevent its change to ?'.

hypothesis of an Indo-European doublet *6meso- *6mso. Further examples of
a contraction which took place after but not before the rhotacism are the forms

Latin before the rhotacism (v. infr. § 47), it would naturally be
given in pronunciation with less marked emphasis, and hence
would not exercise so much contracting influence, and the same
interval which allowed the change in Latin from the old accent
to the new, would allow the old accent to produce its normal
effect in other dialects where it was preserved ; so that there is
nothing to prevent our supposing, as it is natural to do, that
rhotacism took place, medially, at the same time in both Latin
and Umbrian.
43. Why then should Latin shew these special phonetic
characteristics, that is if we choose to regard them
as peculiar to it ? This brings us at once to the C'o)T«Zatiore of

second point to be discussed, the question of Bor- grammar and
rowing. A glance at any tribal map of Italy re- ^o^^^"'^
minds us how small a number of people the Latins
were compared with the multitude of aliens with whom they
came perpetually into close contact. At war and at peace,
fighting side by side with them in the Eoman armies, or against
them almost annually for the first century of the republic and
more, admitting them by degrees to full Roman citizenship,
erecting public monuments in all the free towns with inscrip-
tions written by Romans, but in the local dialect ; — in these and
a hundred other ways the Latin-speaking folk were constantly
forced to know something of the dialects spoken by their
neighbours, and of these perhaps especially the Sabines and
Samnites. And the fact that we find a certain number of
words borrowed from these sources completely adopted into the
Latin vocabulary is the almost inevitable consequence of the
history of the language itself. Thanks to the same geographical
position, at once central and isolated, which trained the Romans
to the headship of the Italic peoples, the language they spoke
became in many respects unique among its kindred dialects,
such for example as its accent, the imperfect in -bam, the infini-
tive in -re, the curious development of the 'perfects' in -si and
-ui ; and while these strong individual characteristics, partly as
signs of the character of the people who spoke it, partly as ren-
dering it intrinsically a(^a§» d|in@»(6i@B@w on for it the predomi-
60 verner's law in italy. § 44.
nance over its rivals, the isolation of which they are the signs
necessitated a considerable addition to its vocabulary when it
was spread over a large area. A conquering people may often
adopt the language of the conquered, as the Normans in Eng-
land ; but it seems that nearly always a language which is
adopted largely by aliens, though its grammatical structure
may remain long unaltered, admits a host of strange words into
its vocabulary. This was the case for example in the transition
from Attic to the Koiv!}, and from Latin to the several Romance
languages'.
44. In general of course it is regarded as a fair assumption
that a word whose form we find it difficult to ex-
borrowing in pla-in hy the laws of the language it is used in, so
particular f^j. ^s we know them, has very possibly been bor-
rowed from some other after these laws had ceased
working. But there is obviously a danger lest this method of
avoiding difficulties may only prolong the ignorance of the real
phonetic laws which has led us to adopt it, and it is perhaps a
pardonable digression to enumerate a few characteristics which
may justify the assumption of a borrowed word with more cer-
tainty than the mere convenience of the moment. The evidence
jp , . I ■ of borrowing is External and Internal. External
dence of bor- evidence can hardly be classified, as it includes so
lowing. rnany different species: the direct statements of
grammarians [Minerva a Sabinis, Varro) : our knowledge of
the political (e.g. classis^) or natural (e.g. elephas) history of
the districts from and into which it was introduced : or some
collocation, such as Caesius Sabinus, are among them. But
these are of course always accidental and frequently wanting ;
the Internal cannot escape notice if they are present.
^ It has been pointed out to me that personal names (cognomina, in English
the 'Christian' name) are very frequently borrowed, e.g. Philo, Philippus,
Blaesus. In the list of words borrowed from Sabine (p. 48) we have many
gentile names, which were probably introduced at a time when nomina were
not yet distinguished sharply from cognomina.
2 In point of fact I do not believe classis to be borrowed, but a regular -ti-
noun formed from clad- (clades) ' to out.' It has survived from a very early
period of the language and its concrete sense prevented its extension by -on-
{*classio).

EVIDENCE OF BORROWING. § 45. 61
Briefly they are
(1) Irregular phonetic form, judged by some internal evi-
well established law, e.g. rufus. rowing.
(2) Irregular flecdon, e.g. pelagus and other Gr. nouns;
also caro carnis (contrast hominis).
(3) Irregular gender, e.g. pelagus neuter, caro feminine.
(4) Parallelism with some word shewing the regular form
and a kindred hut different meaning, e.g. rifus
ruber.
Especially
(5) A peculiar limitation or ' secondarisation ' of meaning
which seems nearly always to attend an alien word,
e.g. caro in Oscan ' a part ', in Latin ' (a portion of)
meat ' ; rufus in Oscan ' red ', in Latin ' red-haired ' ;
vov^fio';^ in Syracusan Greek means a 'coin' {Tab.
Her.), being clearly borrowed from the Oscan
*numso- = Lat. numerus (v. supr. § 42), in the
wider signification of ' number '.
None of the examples just given affect my theory, but in
the course of the following pages we shall have opportunities of
applying these conditions with greater relevancy.
45. It is necessary to summarise once more the evidence
for the date of the change of s to r in Latin. Some Evidence as
of it appears to have been misinterpreted, and one ^l^thi Elmta-
of the passages from Livy I have not seen cited cis"»-
before.
1. Brugmann lays stress on the tradition that Appius
Claudius substituted the hooked G for Z in the ^^^^^^
Latin alphabet as shewing that the sound of the Claudius and
voiced sibilant had disappeared from Latin at the
date of his censorship 312 B.C.

2. On the fibula which Helbig and Diimmler have recently
Praenestine discovered at Praeneste there occurs the word Ifu-
masioi. The alphabet fixes its date at not later
than 500 B.C. and the other words are certainly Latin pure and
simple. Cf. § 84, p. 48 supr.
3. On the Buenos Inscription^ which is not later than
300 B.C.,

a. Z certainly does not occur ;
/3. while we have the form pacari which as being (pro-
bably, V. infr. § 55, p. 76) an analogy form would date from the
end of the rhotacising period.
4. Cicero (Ep. ad Fam. 9. 21) tells us that the consul of
„. 336 B.C. was the first of his family called Papirius
instead of Papisius (v. the following section). It
is sometimes said that 'proper names would yield to the
Change. in change later than other words' which would seem
proper names, ^q imply that the change was conscious, which a
real phonetic change appears never to be, though in days of the
printing-press the spelling, as it remains the same, may produce
a sort of retrospective consciousness. The remark seems equally
superfluous if it merely means that proper names would be less
frequently used than other words, seeing that the first time
they were used they would be pronounced in the new fashion.
It is of course quite true if applied only to the spelling of proper
names, and perhaps this is all that Cicero or his authority could
really vouch for.
5. So far as I can discover by the help of Halm's index
there are no passages in Quintilian bearing on this
Quintilian. ■ , «
6. The following passages from Livy give us a good deal
of help :
Livy.
a. 2. 80, Valerius Volesi filius, who was dic-
tator in 492 B.C.
/3. But the consuls for the same year are given in 2. 28

F'uscus. Furios Fusios scripsere quidam. Id admoneo ne quis
immutationem virorum ipsorum esse quae nominum est putet.
This gives us the key to the enigma. It shews that Livy con-
sidered the form with r the correct one, and the spelling with s
as a (perhaps) unexplained solecism. Hence the names of per-
sons well known in history like Valerius and Veturia would
appear in the form by which they were usually spoken of in
Livy's own day, whereas Volesus, which had passed out of use^
after giving rise to Volero, and the label of the lay figure
Vetusius would be merely transcribed after Livy's incurious
fashion". Sp. Furius Fuscus was consul in 462 B.C. The plural
Fusios shews that Livy found the form with the s in some of
his authorities and r in others at this place, and chose the r
form himself as being the prevailing one, the examples of it of
course occurring at later dates. We conclude therefore that the
change
(1) had certainly not taken place in 492 B.C. {Vetusius,
Volesus) ;
(2) probably had not taken place in 462 B.C. if we sup-
pose Fusios to represent the genuine spelling at that date. It
is possible that the variation here may really go back to a
variation in the usage of the Furian family itself in 462 B.C.
between the traditional and the phonetic spelling. It seems
rather an early date however for disputes as to orthography,
and the Papirii must, comparatively, have been ultra-con-
servative to have only adopted the new spelling 130 years after
the change in sound. They may not however have had occa-
sion to spell their names so often in the Consular Fasti. On
the whole it is best to regard these two dates 462 B.C. and
336 B.C. as the extreme limits in either direction. The change
itself must have been complete within a very much shorter

Proper names. Quintilian (1. 5. 22) might be quoted to shew that
the old accent lasted longest in proper names'? In a very brief
notice of the subject he selects as typical solecisms the accentu-
ation of the two names Gandllus and Cethegus on the first
syllable. 'Adhuc difiSciUor observatio est per tenores vel ad-
centus, quas Graeci m-pocraihia'i vocant cum acuta et gravis alia
pro alia ponuntur ut in hoc ' Camillus ' si acuitur prima, aut
gravis pro flexa, ut Cethegus, et hie prima acuta (nam sic
media mutatur).' It may of course merely represent a natural
mistake of non-Latin Italians pronouncing their adopted tongue
in the same fashion as their own ; but if so it is a very curious
coincidence that both the examples should be proper names,
which are not often quoted elsewhere as illustrations. If the
view of accent-change as largely analogical be correct, it is easy
to see that the old pronunciation would last longest in personal
names which are a kind of personal property, it being almost as
great a wrong to mispronounce a man's name as to steal his
1 A general shifting of accent, as distinguished from the change in the
few individual words in which it may have begun, does not seem, strictly
speaking, to be a purely ^AoweZtc change, but to involve a certain propor-
tion of arbitrary analogical influence. There is no a priori evidence
that any one method of accentuation is intrinsically easier than another,
and hence wlien the accent in a partictdar langiuige was changing there
must have been a certain amount of volition exercised on the part of those
who first set the fashion. The contrast of classical Latin where accent has
become bound by quantity with Oscan and Umbrian and late Latin where
quantity has been more or less suppressed in favour of accent seems to
point to the wish to pronounce syllables with the length that was felt pro-
perly to belong to them, as the motive power of the change. The steady
retrogression of accent in modern English, e.g. in such words as indispfitable
inJhputahlc, seems certainly analogical.

purse. The II of the modern Fallen seems to indicate that in
spite of its long e Falerii was accented on the first syllable.
The r in ValeriKS Veturius Masurius Rahlrius Papvrius
Etruria Pinarius may be due to an accent on the first syllable
retained for this reason, but they are not conclusive since, as
we shall see, they can all be explained quite regularly without
this hypothesis.
47. In order to shew as clearly as may be the unmistakable
conclusion which is forced upon us by the evidence
of rhotacism if we accept the arrangement of the cent. Direct
phenomena suggested in this essay, I have arranged evidence of
in five classes all the words (1) in which the change
of s to r cannot be due to the influence of i or u, and (2) in
which it need not, i.e. in which it might conceivably have been
caused by the absence of accent in the preceding syllable, and
(3) in which s is retained between vowels ; the inclusion of the
second class of words enables us to muster all that can possibly
be admitted as evidence on the question.
I. Words whose form is explicable only on the assumption
of the oldest accent. j^^^,^^ „^
II. Words whose form is explicable on the i"'""/-
assumption of either the oldest or the intermediate system but
not of the latest.
III. Words whose form is explicable on the assumption of
either the oldest or the intermediate or the latest.
IV. Words whose form is explicable 7iot on the assumption
of the oldest but on that of either the intermediate or the latest.
V. Words whose form is explicable not on the assumption
of the oldest nor of the intermediate but only of the latest.
By the intermediate stage of accentuation I mean that in
which the accent had become bound by quantity in so far that
it could not go back behind a long syllable in the penult, or if
the penult was short, behind a long syllable in the antepenult,
but could go back to the fourth from the end or to the initial
syllable, if all that intervened between it and the last were
sh ort. Digitized by Microsoft®
66 verner's law in italy. § 47.
It will be seen therefore that these five classes exhaust all
possible combinations of the three stages, it being remembered
that any change which is governed both by the oldest and the
latest systems will be equally subject to the rules of the inter-
mediate (e.g. foideris, a word whose accent was the same when
Latin passed into Romance as when Italic passed into Latin) ;
and also that any word governed by the intermediate but not by
the oldest is governed also by the latest^ and hence the (mathe-
matically^) possible classes '' explicable on the oldest or the latest
hut not on the intermediate," and " hy the intermediate hut not hy
the oldest or the latest" are historically impossible.
The results are as follows :- —
1. There are no words whose form is explicable only on
the assumption of the oldest accent (half-a-dozen
examples which might be placed here occurring also
as due to the influence of a following i or u, e.g. Pinarius) ex-
cept one example of an isolated form in a system in which the
remaining forms were all accented on the first syllable; this
would clearly be the sort of place in which the old accent would
linger longest, and cannot be quoted as evidence that that accent
was genuinely in force elsewhere. The example in question is
the genitive plural of the first declension, mensdrum, older
mensdrom', accented on the first syllable because of mdnsa
Tninsam mdnsdd mdnsaes (?) cet.
2. There is one word with r, one with s, and several proper
Cl II 2+ ^^™®^ '^^^'^ ** {gloria from (?) *cUvSzia, caesaries,
Valerius) which may be explained on either the
oldest or the intermediate but not on the latest system.
■■ Except in the (purely hypothetical) case of a word of five or more syllables
ending in --.---.
^ The number of alternative combinations may be represented hy the formula
which can be expanded in eight ways. The two oases
^-B + C,and -A + B-G
I have just explained are impossible, and - A -B - C represents the class of
9hanges in accented syllables.
' It is of course possible that the change of o to u in this (always) unaccented
syllable was before the period of rhotaoism but it is safest to dispense with so
doubtful an explanation, especially as vowel degradation as a whole is rather
late in Latin.

each as typical examples, there are some TWENTT-
FIVE words with r and TWENTY with s which are explicable
equally on all three systems.
4. There are some seventeen words with r including most
of the best-known examples of the change in root- ^^^^^ iy 21 +
syllables, and FOUR with s, which are not explicable
on the oldest system but by either the intermediate or tho
latest.
5. There are no words which need the supposition of the
latest accent. In caer'&leus (older cairUleus) the m ^^^^ ^ ^^^^
seems certainly original (v. infr. § 60, p. 83) and it
is this which has caused the change.
From these figures it is obvious
I. That there is no evidence that at the time when rhota-
cism began the oldest accent was in force.
II. That during the period the intermediate accent cer-
tainly came into force.
III. That there is no evidence that the latest system had
come into force before the end of the period, and a, certain
amount of evidence that it had not.
This last conclusion exactly agrees with the inference drawn
by Corssen from the contraction of forms like optumus Manlius
reccidi imperi, and the degradation of the vowel of the second
syllable in benivolus malivolus malig(e)nus, which clearly point
to the retention of the first-syllable accent on words of this
shape till a fairly late era. It is a natural conjecture that the
final change was due to the influence of the Greek accent, sup-
ported of course by that of the great bulk of words in Latin
which had a long syllable either in the penult or antepenult
and therefore an accent in the same position.
The argument of course implies that the exspiratory cha-
racter of the accent in Latin (and also in the other Italic
dialects) had at least begun to develop at this time. We can
trace a gradual deYelq^mg^i^o^l^^gg^^TQent in accentuation in
68 VERNER's law in ITALY. § 48.
the history of Latin, from the mainly musical accent which
probably came from the final stage of Indo-European, to the
almost purely stress-accent which moulded the Eomance lan-
guages. The Latin of the cultivated classes at Rome appears
to have resisted this tendency with more success than any other
of the descendants of pro-ethnic Italic.
48. Having thus summarised the evidence in favour of the
two corollaries as to the change of accent already given, § 5,
p. 6 supr., it will be legitimate as well as extremely convenient
to assume them in what follows. There follow lists of words
arranged under two separate methods,
(1) according to the phonetic cause of the condition in
which the sound is found :
(2) in the five classes just described.
It might seem more natural to put the second first, but
there is a considerable number of words where the change
appears to be due to analogical influence (e.g. Tiios maris for
*motis (metior) ara etc.) which are best disposed of in connexion
with the first arrangement. After the discussion here the
second classification will contain only lists of words with refer-
ences to preceding pages. First of all however it is desirable
to give a complete list of all words bearing on the question,
i.e. all those which shew s, or r representing an original s, be-
tween vowels in Latin, arranged according to the authorities by
whom they have been collected. This section of the essay will
then be concluded by removing from the list such words as
have been previously given by authorities but for one reason
or another appear inadmissible.

Labosus clearly belongs here, whether it is for *labos-osus (like
clamosus dolosus fragosus and others given by Roby) or, as
seems at least plausible, formed not from the stem lahos-, but
from the verb lahare, on the analogy of clamare clamosus
onerare onerosus criminare criminosus moratus nwrosus dolere
dolosus and others. The meaning ' slippery ' would give a more
picturesque tinge to the two passages in Lucilius where it
occurs (Non. 8. 46), ' iter labosum,' and ' labosas Tantalu qui
poenas ob facta nefantia luvit,' which would describe the cup
slipping from his grasp.
The commonest case is of course that of participles and
perfects in s. After a long vowel or consonant the a participles
s was written single in Quintilian's^ time, but here **''•
in Cicero's the ss was kept in writing, though in pronunciation
then, as afterwards, it was probably kept only after short
vowels, as in missus, where it was always written from the time
of the first introduction of double consonants^. If Brugmann's
view of the pro-ethnic character of the change of tt to ss in
Italy were correct, all participles like fusus would be citable as
evidence in support of the theory advocated in this essay,

given explicitly as one of the words which were so spelt ' Cice-
ronis temporibus paulumque infra.' Apart however from spell-
ing, which is at best very unsafe evidence unless independently
supported, we have the forms of the compounds incusare, excu-
sare, where the weakening of au to u shews there was no accent
on that syllable, from in-causdre, ex-causdre. The s therefore
we should expect to have become r if it had been single. These
forms however betray the secret by their resemblance to excu-
sum incusum. Is not caussa a past passive participle of an
original *caudo, to smite or cut (cf. Cauda, 'the smiter,' caudex,
' the bark, or the stump or plank cut off,' also Caudium, the
place where the valley divided or opened out into the plain) ?
Res caussa would = ' res decisa' 'res judicata,' and a glance at
the article in any dictionary will shew that the forensic signifi-
cation of the word is the oldest. A large number of words
meaning to 'judge' mean properly to 'cut,' e.g. KpLvai cernere
decide. The form *caudo must have died out in this derived
meaning and cudo have been substituted in the literal sense
from the compounds incudo etc., just as spicio^ miniscor have
banished *specio * meniscor, and cludo had supplanted claudo
in all writers except Cicero at the end of the republic. It had
probably only been preserved so long from the influence of
includo etc., by such independent forms as claustrum. An
incidental advantage of this explanation is to get rid of the
irregular u in the present stem of ciido.
In qudsillus an original ss has been reduced by the later
accent, as in cu7"Alis from currus. Gr. Kd6o<i shews the root
*qath. *qath-lo- became qudlo- in pro-ethnic Italic or Latin,
*quath-tlo- or a diminutive * quath-tillo- became quassillus in
Latin I The same may have happened in Maswrius, or the ss
which sometimes occurs in the name may be due to the wish to
express the accent (§ 46, p. (35 supr.) on a short syllable (§ 27,
p. 35 supr.). On the other hand there is no reason for the
loss of a second s in casa, nor for supposing an original ss in
quaeso, unless indeed the subjunctive meaning ' I will beg ' or
'let me beg' which Brugmann supposes, be considered more

Where it was used as a part of the same verb as quaerit quae-
rimus cet. qvar^bam quaer^mus cet. the r, which was phonetically
regular in these, forced itself into quaero also, but where it
remained out of system as a mere rhetorical particle (cf. Engl.
prithee, please) it kept the phonetic form proper to itself The
passage in Quintilian (1. 6. 33), even as restored by Halm
(' satis est vetus quaeso : quid opus est quaesito dicere ? '), seems
too uncertain to be worth discussing here. The singleness of
the s in ndsus is shewn by the Sa.nskrit ndsa, 0. Bulg. nosu,
Engl, nose cet. Pesestas is probably dialectic ; in Latin the
regular form would have been *pestas like clamosus for *clam8-
sosus.
52. I have now only to give the list of words which con-
stitute the evidence for and against the theory in Latin, with
brief comments where they are needed. They are as follows :
1. Words in which s is preserved by accent (i.e. in which it
occurs between two vowels after an accented syllable and is not
followed by i or u, or, if so, is not preceded by i or m or a long
vowel or diphthong).
2. Words in which s has become r after an unaccented
syllable.
3. Words in which s has become r after an accented
syllable and is not followed by i or u. These have to be ex-
plained.
4. Words in which s has become r after an accented syl-
lable under the conditions described.
5. Words in which we have s between vowels after an
unaccented syllable. Of these there are only four : Pusilliis

perhaps better than nothing.
positus may of course have been still regarded as a com-
pound at the date of rhotacism. It was certainly not so
regarded when posui was formed which however is later
than Plautus. In compounds it sank to ^postus and this
by the side of the regular (re)-posim'' appears to have
given rise to {re)quistvi from *requistum (cf. quaestus

rosidas. If this form really occurs the vowel of the second
syllable was probably intermediate between i and e,
and therefore not sufficient to drag back the s to r if it
was not predisposed in that direction. This may be the
case in luridus (' mala lustra ') where the u would have
a more directly rhotacistic influence than the 5 of rosidvs.
siser. It seems more probable that the Greek aiaapov
is borrowed from this, than conversely, from (1) the
change of declension which is more natural from the
consonantal to the o class, (2) the change of the vowel, (3)
the irregularity of the cr between vowels in Greek.

Aurunca. Servius (Aen. 7. 727, Georg. 2. 167) tells us that
the Greeks called the Aurunci also Ausones and it is
impossible that two such Barnes so exactly alike in all
but the variation of s and r (Dion. Hal. calls them
AvpajryKOL as well as AvpovyKoi 1. 26, 6. 32) and de-
noting so very nearly the same people should be of
distinct origin. The reason for the Latinised form of
the name easily appears from their history. They
belonged (Arist. 7. 9. 10, Polyb. 34. 11, Strab. 5. 4. 3')
to the Oscan stock and originally inhabited the part
of Italy between Tyrrhenia and Oenotria, which they
called Ausonia, a name which at a later date found its
way into Latin poetry, probably from a Greek source
(Ap. Rhod. 4. 553, Verg. Aen. 10. 54). The city which
the Ausones founded in (probably hostile) Volscian
territory they called Ausonca (contracted from *Ausonica
just as Marrouca is from *Mdrrovica). With this the
Romans were at war as early as 505 B.C., again in 495,
and 345 B.C. (Livy 2. 16. 17; 5. 26. 27; 7. 28) so that
they were familiar with the name before and during the
rhotacising period. We only know of it through Latin
sources, and therefore in the Latin form, as we should
expect, seeing that the city was destroyed by the Sidicini
in 336 B.C. The generic name Ausones which was later
(Plin. 3. 9. 4, Livy 8. 15. 16; 9. 25) applied to the
inhabitants of Gales, Minturnae and Vescia, represents
the local name which still survived and has lasted down
to modern times in the little river Ausente near the site
of Minturnae.
If the coin Auruncud really dates from before the de-
struction of the town in 336 B.C. we might suppose that it
proved that the Ausones in Aurunca shared the Latin accent
and rhotacism, but even then it would be much more probably
explained as due to Latin influence. I have been unable to
find any facsimile of this coin to ascertain the genuineness of
the jR.

Varro again (7. 83) gives us direct evidence of the

form of curdre etc. which was in most constant use
(cf. Eng. ' do '), while cu7-a would be as comparatively

dity, but Lucretius speaks of ' taetri primo7-dia viri'
in this sense, where, as in similar phrases, the meaning
is obviously helped out if not provided by the proximity
of vires, so that the root-meaning of the word was taken
to be 'strength, essential potency,' and the analogy of
vis vires would have converted *visus into virus. This
suggests also a possible explanation of the gender. By
the side of this apparent derivative denoting a concrete
thing, 'essence, poisonous essence,' stood a real derivative
denoting a person, namely vir 'a man,' whose oblique
cases only differ from those of virus in the quantity
of the I. Accordingly virus was treated as a neuter
noun to mark its impersonalitj'-, perhaps on the analogy
of vulgus, if that was already in existence.
These five words (ara aurum cura lira virus) are the only
serious exceptions as the rest (v. infr.) are either due to sentence
accent (eram) or parts of a grammatical system (dare). Never-
theless their number is disquieting, however possible each of
the explanations just suggested may be singly. In aurum cura
lira the first syllable originally consisted of a diphthong whose
second member is i or u, and it would be possible to suppose
that in old Latin the two elements had not completely coalesced,
so that the words would be virtually trisyllables with the ac-
cent on the first, d-u-rum c6-i-ra l6-i-ra, and we might erect
this into a special class of changes {'all dissyllables heginning
with an i or u diphthong ') at the expense only of adopting
Brugmann's explanation of quaeso and regarding Lausus ' as
Sabine (v. the list supr. § 53, p. 74). Lira however would still
owe its I to delirus and ara and virus would be left. Or again
should we suppose them to contain the suffix -ro- affixed to
the s of the root in Latin, not in Italic ? On the whole the
probability seems to me decidedly to rest with the separate
explanations of these words and the single explanation of the

mV^o = 'Minerva' ('a Sabinis')) seems to connect it with the
clearly' borrowed word caesius. On the latest system of
accentuation, which was probably fairly established by 200 B.C.,
the accent on caeruleus (which we find in Ennius side by side
with caerulus) would be on the third syllable from the end and
this would therefore have been preserved from sinking to u
if it had been an original o, since the change from m to o
before I in unaccented syllables took place quite late, as is
evidenced by the frequent variation in spelling, e.g. Aesola
Aesula, and therefore after the final change of accent. It may
be thought that the u of cairulus had influenced caerAleus,
but the influence is more likely to have been the other way.
It is usual to find the older form preserved in such cases.
In caesi-us caeru-lus may we not see an example of the
common parallelism of t and u stems in the same or different
languages ? The it stems in Latin have all disappeared in
various ways (e.g. suavis vacuus), but traces of them are left
in words in -lo- and -ro- e.g. anguis : angu-lus, inula : Castrmn
Inui (cf. yiapadwv), oculus : aiKv<;, ungula : ungu-is vidulus :
viduus, also ancora (orig. *anc'tLra; does the change oi 'iJito S

There are a few words in Festus about which nothing

APPENDIX.
A. S between voiuels in Classical Latin and Romance.
62. Some amount of doubt still appears to rest on the
State of the question of the pronunciation of s between vowels
question. (rosa casus) in Latin of the classical period. Corssen
asserted, on the ground of the Italian pronunciation, that in
this position the s was voiced. This view Mr Roby rejected
(Lat. Gr. Vol. I. Pref xlix), asking for a more precise investiga-
tion of the facts in the Romance languages. So far as I know
this task has been hitherto left unattempted, though the diffi-
culty it involves is merely that of comparing data which have
already been carefully collected. Little apology therefore is
needed for reopening the question in the light of our present
information, especially when its solution appears to lie on the
surface of the evidence. An examination of the whole of the
somewhat complex details of the history of s between vowels in
Romance can, I think, lead us to only one conclusion, that s
was never anything but a breathed sound in Latin till quite
late times, certainly long after Quintilian. The same conclusion
is supported by what we can infer from Latin itself of the
usual pronunciation of s medially, e.g. from its effect on pre-
ceding consonants {apstineo lapsum cet), as has been long ago
pointed out. Before however proceeding to deal categorically
with ' s between vowels in Italian, Spanish, etc' the evidence of
its history in Latin proper needs some slight comment, and
that is practically confined to the often-quoted passage in
Quintilian (L 7. 20), which appears to have been frequently
misunderstood.

QUINTILIAN. § 63. 87
63. 'Quid quod Ciceronis temporibus paulunque infra, /ere

"cassus," " divissiories": quomodo et ipsum et Vergilium quo-
que scripsisse manus eorum decent. Atqui paulum superiores
etiam illud, quod nos gemina dicimus "iussi," una dixerunt.'
The bearing of this remark has, I think, been missed
through neglect of the important modification fere
and the general drift of the context. The chapter on the pro-
in which the passage occurs deals with orthography nimciation
as specifically distinguished from pronunciation. 7.
init. ' Nunc, quoniam diximus quae sit loquendi regula, di-
cendum quae scribentibus custodienda, quod Graeci opdoypa-
(j)iav vocant, nos recte scribendi scientiam nominemus.' The
writer is throughout concerned with differences of spelling not,
as he understood them, based on any difference in pronuncia-
tion, e.g. the man who wrote r)ialus ('apple-tree') without the
apex pronounced it in just the same way as those who wrote
Tndlus. He deals first (§ 2 — 10) with divergences caused by
the desire to spell etj^mologically, as exspecto, obtineo, pro-
nounced expecto, optineo, generally allowing the etymological
spelling where it served to distinguish two words whose sound
was the same ; then (§ 11 — 29) he discusses variations from
the modern spelling due to adherence to custom, for example,
criticising adversely ('supervacuum') Lucilius' spelling of the
nom. plur. of the second declension and of the dative sing, of
the third with et, puerei, furei, on the ground that i can
denote both the long and the short sound. This shews that he
regarded the difference merely as one of spelling, as indeed it
had clearly become, since the spelling ei has no etymological
connexion with the original oi oe of the nom. plur. Similarly
he quotes the modern spelling hsre as opposed to the ancient
heri, while in 1. 4. 8 he says the sound is neither e nor i but
intermediate. And in all the rest of the examples he gives, it
is to be observed that he is speaking not of any change of
sound, but merely of the divergence between the modern and
an archaizing spelling, nor does he here discuss the latter from
an etymological point of view, though he is aware that at least

some of the variations, e.g. the d of the ablative, should be so
explained. Now if the single s between vowels had been voiced
in his time it would have had an entirely different sound from
ss, which is always breathed even in Romance, and he would
certainly have alleged this as an argument in favour of the
spelling with a single s where the sound was voiced. He in
fact concludes the chapter by expressly recommending the
phonetic as opposed to the historical spelling.
It will be agreed then that in the words of which Quin-
tilian is speaking, the s, written single in his time
in a particu- . . .
lar class of and double in Cicero's, was certainly a breathed
sound. It only remains to ask. Which are they ?
'fere quotiens s littera media vocalium longarum vel suhiecta
longis esset geminabatur, ut caussae cassus divissiones.' These
three words all happen to be nouns and this accident has
obscured what seems to me the real meaning of the statement,
namely, that in Cicero's time the ss was regularly written in all
past participles (and their derivatives) whose first syllable ended
in s preceded by a long vowel, i. e. the participles of long vowel-
stems ending in dentals. Of course the ss was always written
after short vowels, in missus etc. both in early and late times,
and there was no variation of spelling to comment on : that
only occurred after long vowels, and there only in participles
and their derivatives, e.g. caseus was never written with ss :
hence the modification fere. The participles would form far the
largest class of words of this form. But caussae ? That is
a participial form too if the derivation from *caudo suggested
in § 51 supr. p. 72, be correct.
Why then was the ss kept in these words in spelling so late
as the last century of the republic when, as Osthoff '
Onyui of , , , ,
the Cicero- has shewn, the sound must soon have become single
man. spell- ^f^gj. ^ JQ^g yowel ? The simplest answer seems to
be that the ss itself was of no great antiquity in
this position : of course patior : passus etc. would help to keep
rddo : rdssus etc., but a spelling that sunk out of use between
Cicero and Quintilian could not have been maintained, one
would think, by purely artificial considerations over a space of

SS IN PLAUTUS. § 64. 89
very many years before Cicero, when education was confined to
a far narrower circle tban during and after the Augustan period.
We have then good reason for supposing that the change of tt
by which ss came to stand in this position could not have been
complete much before the introduction of double letters of
which Quintilian also speaks. This first appears in the decree
of Aem. Paulus 189 B.C. and became generally prevalent about
135 — 115 B.C. (Stolz, Lat. Gr. Init.). From the earliest times
the sound of ss where it occurred after long vowels may have
been less full than after short, since we find it written single
here on the inscription just mentioned in the pluperfect sub-
junctive and the perfect infinitive. This does not however
affect our question since the s or ss here in all probability had
nothing to do with tt and may have been (1) reduced to a single
s before the other ss was first pronounced, and (2) only written
ss afterwards on the pattern of esse essem. We conclude there-
fore that the Ciceronian spelling of the participles „ , .
with ss is a trace of the comparatively late change of
tt to ss in this position, though one that might hardly have sur-
vived but for the influence of the forms with ss after short vowels
like missus where the sound survived as well as the writing.
64. Before leaving the Latin evidence, perhaps some com-
ment is needed on the ss in the Plautine words
malacissare batissare cet., where it is commonly
taken as representing the (Campanian or Sicilian sound of the)
Greek ^. In view of the Romance evidence as to the invariably
breathed character of the ss, no one now supposes that it de-
noted a voiced sound in any but these words, and (1) even here
it seems still uncertain whether it does represent ^ and not
cro", while (2) before the introduction of z in Cicero's time it is
difficult to see how otherwise the sound could have been trans-
literated. The descendant of the original Gr. l^=a-h must have
had a much thicker and heavier sound than the single Roman
s, and there was no character in the Latin alphabet to repre-
sent the voiced sound.
65. The facts of the representation of Latin s or ss between
vowels in the Romance languages appear to be as Latin s in

breathed sound, and in the other three becoming or remaining
voiced. The change from a breathed to a voiced fricative in
vocal surroundings is natural, easy, and of frequent occurrence
in almost anj;- language, whereas that from a voiced to a
breathed in this position is unnatural and unparalleled. There
can therefore be no possible doubt as to which of the two was
the parent of the other. The evidence of Spanish and Wal-
lachian alone abundantly proves that Latin s between voiuels
was always breathed, and as we have already seen, all the evi-
dence we can get from Latin itself leads us to exactly the same
conclusion. Typical examples are —
Lat. causa = Span, causa, Wal. cause,
Lat. (late) *rdsa = Span, rosa, Wal. rus'e,
Lat. casa = Span, casa, Wal. case,
Lat. caseus = Span, queso, Port, queiso. It. cascio,
in all of which Latin s is represented by a breathed sound.
These prove the genuine phonetic character of the representa-
tion, since they cannot have been affected by the participles in
-Iso- -rso- -xo- -pso- etc. which, it might have been suggested,
had kept the breathed sound in the participles in -so after
vowels.
It now only remains for us to discuss the changes of the
sound in Italian.
66. The rules for the pronunciation of s between vowels
in Italian are as follows (Diez, 1. 347 — 8. Dr H.
Vockeradt, Lehrbuch der It. Spr. Berlin, 1878,
pp. 8, 9) :
s between vowels in Italian is always voiced except
1. in adjectives ending in -oso^, glorioso hellicoso and
their derivatives in -osia -osita ;
2. in the verbal endings -si -se -sero -so when preceded
by e, and substantives in -esa derived from these ;
3. in words beginning with mis- dis- es- tr'as- when the
1 Fernow held that the s is voiced where the termination is preceded by
a consonant, as in ontoso. This apparently arbitrary restriction is unknown to
Dr Vockeradt, and only (juoted by Diez in passing.

second half of the compound begins with a vowel,
and compounds of words beginning with s with
prefixes ending in vowels ; and
4. in cosa roso riso.
The third class we may dismiss from further consideration,
the pronunciation of the s being simply determined by its
sound as an initial or final when the words are uncompounded.
The other rules point clearly to the influence of analogy
Origin of the o'^ Other arbitrary change. It may safely be asserted
distinction, ^jj^t no phonetic cause could have separated riso
and roso ,from the mass of other past participles with a voiced
s between vowels in which it has exactly the same origin,
Latin s-« ss- tt. The verbal forms in -eso etc., it is true,
have a breathed s, but they have no claim to be regarded
as anything but an accidental class, acceso from accensus, difeso
from defensus, peso from pensus, teso from tensus, but also leso
from laesus, crese (Dante, Pg. 32. 32) from *cresus. It seems
clear that the reason for the breathed s is to be found in
the nasal which originally preceded it in the majority of the
forms, as in the adjectives in -oso orig. -onso-, though here
the n was only rarely written in Latin, there being no parallel
forms to preserve it in the spelling as there was e.g. in
accendere : accensus. Nevertheless it does occur in MSS, e.g.
Verg. Eel. 1. 5, Publ. Syr. 169, which shews that the nasal
colour of the vowel was kept into quite late times. The
change of a breathed to a voiced s between vowels must
have taken place before this was lost. Afterwards leso C7'ese
reso and any others there may be of this form (which altogether
would be a far smaller number than those which originally
ended in -ensus) came over to the breathed pronunciation'.
1 The n of the French rendre, Ital. rendere, Port, render, seeias clearly due
to the parallelism of the (late) Latin past participle ''resus, itself only a popular
coinage. After the breathed sound had been restored by the influence of the
other participles in -eso the proportion resus ; tesus gave rendere : tendere in
place of reddere, whether this took place separately in Italian, French and
Portuguese, or as seems probable on common ground. In the languages in
which all the participles kept the breathed s the connexion would not be so close
between the forms in -eso and the nasal presents. Hence, as we should expect,
the old Spanish form (Catalonian) is )■<•(/■<•, and Proven(,;al, in which the s

Probably however in course of time the forms in -eso would
have yielded to the influence of the others in -aso -oso -uso all
with voiced s as rimdso (remansus) spaso {expansus) apparently
have done, but for such forms as misso fesso arso corso flusso
ripulso avolso, in all of which -so was breathed. These with
the forms in -eso seem to have created the feeling that in
participles the s might be either breathed or voiced without
any clear reason for the distinction. Hence the breathed
sound was restored where it was useful to avoid confusion with
words of different origin; rOso 'bitten', was by this means
distinguished from ^rosa 'a rose', and riso 'a smile' from riso
'rice' an Arabic word. Cosa naturally felt the influence of
the numerous adjectival forms in -oso -osa to which it would
seem more akin than to participles, of which there are very few
if any in -oso.
This account of the breathed s in such cases as due to
an analogical and comparatively modern readjustment of pro-
nunciation receives a curiously exact confirmation from a
passage in an old Piedmontese grammar (Pipino^ pub. 1783).
He states (p. 12) that the sound of s between vowels in
Piedmontese is " soft like s in the Italian words cosa roso rosa
naso Piedmontese Marchese." This shews that in Pipino's
time the later rule for the pronunciation of cosa and roso
in a different way from rosa naso had at all events not become
common in the Court circle in which he moved, but all four still
kept their natural sound. So that there are no real exceptions
to the rule that 'Latin s between vowels became voiced in Italian
as in French, Provencal and Portuguese^, hut re-
mained breathed in Spanish and Wallachian.'
appears to have longer remained breathed, redre. The later Spanish rendir
ia due to Portuguese influence, as seems proved by the form renta, which would
have become renda if derived from a Latin form with t.
' Note that in late Latin the d of rosa appears to have been lengthened, on
the analogy perhaps of ros roris.

B. Final S in Aryan and the change ofS to R in Sanskrit.
67. The difficulties attached to the history of the sibilants
in the Aryan languages have attracted little discussion of late.
Bloomfield's attack on the traditional explanations of the
changes of final s {A.yn. Journal of Philology, 1882) was an-
swered by Osthoff in his History of the Perfect ; but since then
no new attempt has been made to face the problem, though it
still presents many difficulties. In the Grundriss (§ 556. 3)
Brugmann doubtfully repeats Osthoff 's explanation ('nicht
unwahrscheinlich '). I trust it will not be thought impertinent
to approach the question once more with a slightly clearer view
of the phonetic aspect of the changes involved, and in the hope
not of producing any new and elaborate scheme, but merely of
reconciling what is most probable in the accounts of both
authorities. It is clearly necessary to begin by stating briefly
what arguments have been advanced on either side.
68. Bloomfield begins by giving examples of Sanskrit e or
medially resulting from the loss of s after an

but kept in Zend hsvas, Gr. crFe^, Arm. vez. Sodhar from sah
has followed vodhar from vah. On the strength of these
examples he concludes that the o in e.g. agvo dravati is non-

an enormously preponderating majority of cases, in Zend, where
it banished as except before enclitics, in Sanskrit, Pali and

bhimar are arbitrary imitations of this apparent analogy. He
concludes that e and o both existed separate from a at the latest
period of pro-ethnic Aryan, and finds a further example in
the Zend instr. and dat. pi. of -as stems, raocebish, raocebyo,
J.-Eu. *leukesbhis, Zend e being regularly the long form of
^=Skt. tt, e.g. Gath. emavant=Skt. amavant with secondary
lengthening of the first syllable. Similarly we have occasionally
mane vace for mano vaco, which seem to shew the original
sound' still resisting the levelling tendency. In Sanskrit mano-
bhis etc., shew the victory of the analogical or ' inferential '
extending from external to internal combination. Bloomfield
then finally deals with the scansion of o and e in Veda. He
proves by almost exhaustive statistics that they are certainly
treated as short syllables before vowels, but since he holds
they were non-diphthongal cannot accept the native explanation
of the loss of the final u and i, " 8 and e were the real sounds
here represented by the symbols ('^T '^) ; before other vowels
they gave up their qualitative difference and were represented
by a, (^) but before a, itself the signs for the long vowels and
diphthongs were resorted to, maJcing possible the retention of the
quality or colour of the vowels in writing,^' the short quantity
being traditionally retained in the metre.
The theory thus briefly sketched, whether right or wrong,
may be said to mark an epoch in Aryan phonology. The
resemblance between Sanskrit and Zend final -o and the
common Indo-European termination -os when once pointed
out by authority is altogether too striking to be left on one
1 o would of course be regular in the nom. sing, [fihos) but the e would
come from -ebis etc. at a time when e and S alternated.

side. It must either be accepted and welcomed as an extremely-
important addition to our knowledge of the history of the
vowels', or fully and finally refuted, and any refutation, to
be satisfactory, must substitute a clearer account of the pheno-
mena than we have so far attained. It seems almost self-
evident from a common-sense point of view that there is
a priori far too strong a probability in favour of Bloomfield's
theory for it to be summarily put aside simply because we find
there may be other explanations of the phenomena that are
equally possible and do not involve a greater amount of difiQculty.
There is such a thing, surely, as weight of evidence, as well
as mere numerical preponderance of the arguments advanced ;
and while we cannot allow any theory, however plausible, to
override Phonetic Laws that are well-known and fully esta-
blished, it is clearly unscientific to overlook the possibility
that some of our minor deductions from these may possess
far less authority than the Laws themselves. We may be led
by adherence to ascertained principles to explain some small
number of forms in a particular language in one and only one
way, involving the rejection of a theory which deals plausibly
with large masses of facts, and in any case we can hardly be
too careful in keeping such difficulties in view ; but we ought
to be quite certain that it is a principle and not a prejudice at
stake. The particular forms are on their trial, quite as much
as the theory.

Defects of his free and bound to notice the weaknesses in Bloom-
theory, field's position. In the first chapter of the Perfect
Osthoff deals with most of them in detail. Brieflj^ they seem
to be two, neglect of chronology, and the (apparently unnecessary)
assertion of the non-diphthongal character of the Sanskrit e

omission he has passed by in silence the very serious difficulty
of the Zend forms in -az corresponding to the Sanskrit e. Was

DIFFICULTIES OF BLOOMFIELD'S THEOET. § 69. 97
parted company ? If afterwards, as Osthoff points out, we are
left to suppose that the change of ^ and Sto a took place in Zend
and Sanskrit separately, which is clearly improbable ; if before,
where does the a come from in mazda- nazdisMha- dazdi,'vi\i\c\i
Bloomfield himself quotes ? These forms at least need to be
explained, as well as ' myazda hazdyat. The second defect is
equally serious. Why need it be assumed that e and o derived
from es os are pure monophthongs? It is at least quite con-
ceivable that and e should be diphthongised instead of merely
lengthened in compensation for a lost consonant. In modem
English we have hardly any pure monophthongal long vowels.
Bloomfield's view at all events brings us into very serious diffi-
culties. In the first place there is the question of the short
quantity of e and o in Veda. The explanation I have quoted
verbatim from Bloomfield seems at least very obscure, especially
the words in italics (§ 68, supra p. 95). How can the "possibility"
of expressing a particular sound " in writing " under certain
circumstances preserve the quality of the sound in speech in
those circumstances and those oidy ? And for what conceivable
reason did the Hindoo grammarians insist on writing o before d
but a before at u e and o to denote exactly the same sound ?
On the other hand the native theory of the loss of the second
component of the diphthong (t, u) has many analogies; not merely
in this very group of languages, the locatives Zend zastay-d
O. Pers. dastay-a (where of course the i is original) but in
the Greek final at ot,, whose short quantity in scansion and accent
is simply due to the loss of i. Again if Sanskrit o is merely
an I.-Eu. lengthened by loss of s why should not it also
represent I.-Eu. o after which s was lost, as for example in the
nom. plur. masc. (Osc. Nuvlanus) Skt. agvas? Why do we have
a^vd dravanti and not dgvo dravanti 1 On the usual view of
the as a diphthong we should answer, ' because a long vowel
is not so likely to be diphthongised in compensation for the
loss of a consonant as a short one.' Finally, and this is of
course the chief objection, why did o and e in Aryan remain
' The question of the changes of as in Sanskrit in the middle of words

nearer to ou ei than to a when they resulted from -?s -Ss before
a voiced consonant and not elsewhere ? And if they were not
nearer to the sounds which finally became o and e in Sanskrit
than they were to a, is it conceivable that they should have
been written 6 e and not d 1
70. Osthoff {Perf. 1 foil.) begins by pointing out the Zend
forms with az = Skt. e, and where this equation
holds he urges that the loss of the sibilant is a
change confined to individual languages, as Latin and Sanskrit,
though in some cases (Gr. iBpv(o} the loss is Indo-European.
He rejects Brugmann's suggestion of a ' dissimilationstrieb ' as a
reason for the opposite treatment of the s in sidati Gr. ihpiia
and 1^0) o^o<; Teut. asts., and questions the evidence for the
form hidhaiti in Zend. The preliminary chapter concludes by
enumerating eight points in the case.
1. Skt. e = Zend az, in all Bloomfield's examples as well as
in miyedha = Tnyazda ' meat-offering.'
2. The optative hazdyat which Hubsehmann has discovered
in Yt. 13. 3. It may, it is true, be a late formation on the
analogy of forms like *jaghmydt *ca-khr-ydt, but " this proves
nothing, since sedima may equally well be a new formation in
Sanskrit." It is and must be purely capricious to deny that
Sanskrit e = Zend az.
3. Sedima for *sddima is not due to ' a slight difference of
pronunciation' of the original and the hysterogen e in Indo-
European, because Sanskrit levels rather than preserves small
vowel-d ifferences '.
4. The Latin sedimiis may only go back to an Italic
*sesdimus.
The other four points only go to prove the existence of the
type of perfect-stem SED- in pro-ethnic Indo-European.
Osthoff then gives his own explanation of the facts one by
one (p. 15). First he states the law for Indo-European that s
was lost before voiced explosives when these were followed by a

iSpvay but 1^0} Zend rodcehyd but opea-fjn, the variation being
due to a different division of the syllables ; Zend nazdyS Skt.
nedlyas should have been *nddy6 and *nadlyas, but the
az e were restored from the superlative form nazdishtS nedish-
thas ; this of course on the supposition that the word dates
back to Indo-European. The e from az is a change peculiar
to Sanskrit and due to the ' i-colouring ' of the z. Cf. Arc.
Tot? rats = Att. Toi)? Ta9 Dor. tok? rai/?. Again, in the Sanskrit
forms corresponding to Gr. /xtcr^o? Zend mizhdem, mldkvas,
midhusas, the dh of the nom. is for dh on the analogy of the
other cases, the I.-Eu. forms being mldhv-, mizdu. The Zend
instr. pi. radcebish should be -azbish, but has been influenced by
the dative form in -ebyS. That in this form we have e not d he
attributes to the umlaut of the following y. The dat. plur. of
fem. d stems is always -abyo except in one case, Yt. 10. 93
haSriehyS, which Osthoff claims as the true form, the others
being new formations. Similarly the e in sedus edhi, etc., had
nothing to do with the quality of the L-Eu. e. This follows
from the chronological difficulty noticed in Bloomfield's theory,
and is also supported by the fact that Skt. e in
kiyedha from Mynt-dha,
medha from mndh-dha Gr. fj,evdijpTj';,
nedishthas Zend nazdishtS from I.-Eu. nd-s(e)d-,
trnedhi from tr-na-z-dhi,
has for its component not I.-Eu. e but Aryan & of various other
origins. Dr J. Schmidt's view of an ' e-colouring ' in the I.-Eu.
n in the first two cases, Osthoff thinks " hardly needs refuta-
tion." The ' i-colouring ' of ^; however does not affect a preced-
ing d, nor (i when the z is followed by Skt. j, arddhvam Tnajjati.
[Brugmann (Gds. § 591) confines the change to the words in
which the z is followed by d or dh; zbh > dbh {mddbhis

changes.]
Passing then to the changes of final s Osthoff (p. 36)
develops his theory of the origin of o in Sanskrit before vowels,
nasals, liquids and voiced explosives. The ' pause-forms ' of as

as in pro-ethnic Aryan were ah ah. These were ' substituted '
for az and az before voiced explosives, and for as as before
vowels and all other consonants except dentals and palatals,
where the s was kept, because of its close physiological connexion
with the following sound, ah became o before voiced conso-
nants, and this was made general in Zend except before en-
clitics, and in Sanskrit supplanted ah before vowels, nasals and
liquids, while ah was kept before breathed guttural and labial
explosives, ah became a in Zend and a in Skt. before voiced
explosives, and these were similarly apportioned. Then the
relation of agvam : kavim, sunum produced kavih, sunuh as the
pause-forms of kavis sunus. Then since pitur, etc., also became
pituh, etc., before a pause, kavih sunuh produced an analogical
kavir sunur in the same position as that in "which pitur
appeared, namely before voiced explosives and vowels. This
view of the purely analogical change of s to r is held also by
Bloomtield (Am. J. P. 3, p. 31 n.) but rejected by Bmgmann,
who allows (Gds. § 647. 6) a real phonetic change of i to r
before vowels, nasals and liquids, though the i in this position
he has to explain as an analogical substitution for s. He does
not however reject (§ 556) Osthoff's explanation of the 6.

certainties irom its conjectures. We may grant
Osthoff's law for the loss of s in Indo-European, though the
direct evidence in its favour is almost confined to the word
ihpvw ; we are clearly bound to admit that e in some words
came from az in Sanskrit after it had split off from Zend,
whether or not we hold with Dr J. Schmidt that the a retained
an ' e-colouring.' And if we allow the diphthongal character of
Sansk. e, as we have seen (supra § 69, p. 97) we must, it becomes
immaterial what the exact character of its first component may
have been. jSTevertheless, admitting all this as fully as we may,
we are very far from necessarily rejecting Bloomfield's theory in
its entirety. It is quite possible for a change which took place
partially in Indo-European and partially in Sanskrit, to have

taken place also in the intermediate stage of pro-ethnic Aryan :
the forms in nazd- may very well have been formed in Aryan,
perhaps on the pattern o£pi-zd-, at a later time than the loss of
z before voiced consonants, which Bloomfield supposes took place
before ? and S had sunk to a; the word in fact does not seem to
occur except in Sanskrit and Zend, and Osthoff himself finds a
difficulty in supposing it Indo-European, hazdyat again by
Osthoff's own law must be a new formation, and it may just as
well have been formed in Zend or later Aryan as at any earlier
time. These are the only two forms in Zend which stand in
our way since in imazda- etc. the z is not original and did not
belong to the earliest period of Aryan. In Sanskrit however
we seem to have clear proof {madgus majjati) that z was kept
medially before gutturals and palatals after the change of ^ and
d to &, but it is not so certain whether it remained so long
before bh, since mddbhis usadhhis vidvadbhis may conceivably
be new formations from the loc. pi. in -tsu. I do not know
whether OsthofFs explanation of e <^ a in Zend (supra, p. 99)
has been confirmed, but in want of further evidence than he
gives in its favour, we are free to regard the forms ebyo -ebish
as shewing a trace of I.-Eu. e (e* < ez-) before -bh-"^ ; the Vedic
avayds, Zend mane vace etc. are further evidence for Bloom-
field's theory which Osthoff does not notice. In any case we
have seen that there is no evidence against the view that z was
lost before d dh and n in Aryan before the time when e and S
sank to (X. All that is essential to Bloomfield's explanation of
Sanskrit and Zend o and Prakr. e as arising directly from I.-Eu.
final -8s -Ss is that we should be allowed to suppose a loss of
final s before voiced explosives, liquids and nasals in Aryan : and
if he were granted its loss only before d dh n r I it would not
be a great stretch of probability to suppose that the form they
took before these was made general before other voiced explo-
sives.
Such are the reservations we must make in deference to
Osthoff's arguments, and these are all. But are there no in-
herent weaknesses in his own position ? It is at least a satis-

faction to recognise our ignorance. And Osthoff's theory cer-
tainly presents very considerable difficulties. They seem fairly
obvious but I do not know that they have been definitely
pointed out before. Whether or not they are fatal or even
serious the reader must decide.
72. The basis of the whole structure is a " substitution of
Difficulties of *^® pause-form " for the sound naturally belonging
Osthoff's own to final -as -as in the middle of the sentence. On
^'"^^' the average, we may reckon, a word occurs at the
end of a sentence or clause about once for every seven or eight
times that it is used elsewhere ; by Osthoff's theory we are
therefore asked to suppose that the form which a word had one
time in eight was felt to be so inherently proper to it that it
was substituted for the form it had the other seven times.
Even if we suppose the early Aryans averaged only three or
four words to a clause the improbability is only reduced to
4 : 1 instead of 8 : 1. And if it is nevertheless a phenomenon
to be expected for some reason or other, why is there no illus-
tration forthcoming? Even on its author's own shewing it
appears to be without analogy of any kind. But the substitu-
tion when made was not completed : -as was kept before
dentals and palatals, because of the close physiological con-
nexion between them and the preceding s. But surely when a
particular sound is substituted for another by analogy, by the
feeling that the new sound is the correct one, the change is
generally carried out with completeness ? Are we justified in
combining analogy and phonetics in this way? Be this as it may
we have a far more serious difficulty to the theory in the fact
that the forms in -h are only beginning to appear in use in the
Rig- Veda where -as is at least as common as ah before k(h) and
p(h). If -ah was the regular form in pro-ethnic Aryan, how is
it we find the older form in Sanskrit ? Are we really to sup-
pose another analogical readjustment, -as t- -as c- dragging over
-ah k- -ah p- -ah n- -ah I- ? Credat Judaeus. This difficulty
Osthoff does not notice ; Brugmann (§ 556. 3) escapes it only
by supposing the exceptions -as k- etc. made in Aryan to the
original substitution oi ah-, so that the pausc-furm should have

intruded before vowels and voiced consonants but not else-
where. Such a limitation is purely arbitrary. Everything
seems to shew that the change to Visarga is a late change,
almost peculiar to post-Vedic Sanskrit, -ds -as -is -us as ^s us
are constantly kept (Whitney, c. 2) where later Sanskrit sub-
stituted h for s or s. The final -e in Prakrit = Skt. -as o is one
of the strongest points in Bloomfield's case, but Osthoff and
Brugmann say nothing about it, and their theory leaves it com-
pletely unexplained. Finally what of the phonetics of the
change of ah to au through the middle stage a} ? Why should
a mere emission of breath like h produce a lowering of the
tongue and rounding of the lips ? 3 {gh) is a fairly common
sound, e.g. in Teutonic. Does it ever produce a similar labial
diphthongisation of the preceding vowel? At all events the
change needs illustration and Osthoff gives none.
73. It is hardly necessary to criticize OsthofFs analogical
explanation of the Sanskrit rhotacism, as it has change of s
been rejected by Brugmann. The attempt to ex- *" '^•
plain a change of an individual sound, not of forms in any kind
of system; by an analogy on the narrowest conceivable basis, is a
noteworthy example of the dangers of the imaginative method.
Like Brugmann's derivation of the Greek perfects in -ku from
the single pattern eScoKa, it would have been long ago forgotten
but for the distinguished position of its author. Such explana-
tions have as a rule the unique advantage that they cannot be
directly disproved ; but in this case the fact that h is only
beginning to appear in the Veda while -r from -s is fully
established renders it untenable. Brugmann's view is that ir ur
came by regular phonetic change from -i£ -uz ori-
ginally only before vowels, these having been sub-
stituted for -is -us on the pattern of the Sanddhi of voiced
explosives. Then ir ur displaced -iz -uz before voiced explo-
sives. This is open to very little objection. Only if we hold
that s may as easily pass to rh as i to r, and that before con-
sonants as readily as vowels (supra, §§ 7 — 9, p. 9) we need not
assume quite so much shifting in usage as is necessary for his
view, havisas would indicate that rhotacism did not tak-e place

104 verner's law in italy. § 74.
between vowels (it is only an accentual accident that it did
so in Latin) but we should consider the r the natural phonetic
result of an abridged -s before voiced consonants and similarly
perhaps the h from rh as the true form of s before k and p. That
before voiced consonants final s was kept down to the period of
rhotacism, and not changed to d, as it was medially, we may
ascribe to the influence of its form before vowels and t o, just as
in Zend where -s is universal after i and u. On the other hand
there are one or two forms with r before breathed consonants
which may possibly indicate that the change took place there
also (aglrpada, cf. purpati). This however is quite uncertain ;
it is at any rate very simple to suppose that the forms with r
before d dh h hh etc. were extended to the position before
vowels, e.g. havir daddmi, giving havir ddaddmi. This saves us
one of Brugmann's two readjustments, which it is to be observed
are supposed to act in a contrary direction. A more definite
objection to his view is to be found in the regularity of r be-
fore voiced explosives. If *patl daddti *patid bharati had been
the regular phonetic forms and -ir was only an analogical sub-
stitution we should expect to find a certain amount of variation
and traces of -i, -id at least somewhere. But they do not occur.
74. If then the theories of Bloomfield, Osthoff, and Brug-
mann still leave us an open question we are likely to be very
sceptical of any further attempts at formulating definite ex-
planations. Nevertheless every attempt helps, and equally by
its failure or success, so long as it does not violate established
principles. The scheme that follows is merely a modification of
Bloomfield's theory and claims no positive merit of its own ;
I shall be more than content if it is found free from serious
errors of principle, and at the same time can afford any light
for future research by indicating the limits to which the investi-
gation has so far been carried. I leave to the reader's con-
sideration without further comment the history of the various
changes in the order that seems to me to involve the fewest
difficulties, stating the alternatives in the most doubtful points.
What amount of probability may attach to it I cannot decide,
but it seems to be at least a possible solution.

C. Final S arM R in TJmhrian.
75. The change of final s to ?- in. later Umbrian has no
direct bearing on the theory advanced in the preceding chapters,
but the subject is of course closely related to it and it is
desirable to put the facts on record more definitely than has
been hitherto attempted. Brugmann {Gds. § 655. 9) expressly
leaves it an open question whether there are any phonetic
conditions which determine the loss or retention of the r, or
whether its occasional omission is merely due to a careless
engraver. Whether or not any such conditions can be dis-
covered will best appear from a few statistics. We have to
exclude from consideration all words in which final s never
became r, i.e. those, and only those, in which it was only the
written representative of a stronger sound, -ss -s{i) -ns -cs -ps or
the like, e.g. homonus aveis,fus, sis, vas, erus (Bucheler, Umhrica,
p. 184). Also we must distinguish the loss of -/ (= orig. -ns)
from that of a genuine -s or -r. Final r is not omitted in
V VI and VII in any words in which s is kept in the earlier
period (except sei si {=sis) which does not happen to occur
at all in I — IV), so that there is, strictly speaking, no loss
of final r, only of final s ; hence we must first see where final s
is dropped in Tables I — IV.
76. In Table I a, s is kept sixteen times (five times in one
phrase) before a, e, p, t, v, j, and a pause, and pi„aisin
. dropped once in the adverb heri(s) before p. Tables i—iv.
In I 6, s is kept twenty-one times, before a, e, i, k, p, t, h, s,
s', and a pause, and dropped four times, before a, Jc, p, t = d.
In II a, s is kept nineteen times, before p, k, f, s, m, v, once
before t= d (l. 28), and lost five times before a, p and a pause.
In II b, s is kept twelve times, before k, p,f, m, and a pause,
once before t = d, and dropped twenty-eight times (twenty-
seven in a long list of names in which it is kept twice) and
once in the adverb heri(s), before a, e, i, k, p, t, s, m, v.
In III and IV s is kept forty-two times before a, e, i, k, p, t,
/; s, n, V, h, and droppgd^hr^g^^nes^^fore a, e, s.
108 verner's law in italy. § 77.
From this it seems to follow that no rule for the loss or
retention ofs in the older periocLcan be based upon the character
of the following sound, so far as we can tell from the evidence
we have. Curiously words with final s only occur twice before
voiced explosives {t = d), and in one place it is kept and in the
other omitted. Before all other classes of sound it seems
equally kept and lost. On the other hand all words in which
it is lost have one characteristic in common and it can hardly
be accidental, thei/ are all datives or ablatives plural ending in
-e(s) -ei{s) -i{s), except the adverb heri, where the i is probably
long. We might conjecture then that after long vowels s was
regularly lost under certain further conditions (e.g. before a
pause or before some classes of following sounds or perhaps in
enclitics, or again in words of more than a certain number of
syllables where the last would be further from the accent) which
we have no evidence to determine. Then the two forms would
be confused and their proper positions obscured in usage.
77. The variations of final r are much smaller. In VI and
Final r in VII it is only omitted in heri hertei (and there
y—yil- always) and twice in sei si for sis (VI a 23, b 27).
Seeing however that these two tables are only modernised
copies of documents in which final s was regular, not much
reliance can be placed on their apparent consistency in this
respect. The engraver probably adopted a uniform spelling for
the same grammatical forms wherever they occurred. In VI
b 27 si (followed by a vowel) and sir (followed by p) occur side
by side, the former being, we may conclude, the genuine form.
In V however, which very possibly contains original, not copied,
documents, there is less regularity. In the first section (a I —
13) not counting herte r is lost twice, once in emantu herte
(emantur herte occurring just below) and once in a dative
plur. eikvasese A tiedier ; r appears before a, e, u, p, h. In the
next section (a 14—6 5) it is lost in this same phrase, but kept
before a, e, u, p,t = d,f. In the fragment in Latin alphabet
we have it once omitted before d in the same case, Claverni
dirsans frater Atiersiur, and kept before a, e, o, p, d, s, m.
Summing up then we may feel certain of this much, that

FINAL / IN UMBRIAN. § 77. 109
final s or final r that has come from s so far as our evidence
extends are only lost after long vowels or diphthongs. In eman-
tur the r is probably original. What farther conditions caused
its loss or retention it seems impossible to discover. But the
statistics given above will be available for further investigation,
and may very likely prove more intelligible to other eyes than
they are to mine.
I need scarcely ask the reader to follow the variations of the
writing in the case of final /. One tendency seems distinctly
observable, both in I — IV and VI and VII, to write it only once
in phrases where it occurs at the end of each word in the phrase.
This would seem to indicate that it only existed in spelling at
the time when the copy was made. However in the probably
uncopied Va we have it written once, and in Vb it is once
written and twice omitted, all four times before a pause. It is
hardly worth while to pronounce any decision on evidence so
confused.

^ Osthoff {Perf. p. 570) would insert here another stage: "2nd pi. 'risis
altered to vistis on ■/• of estis, etc., and the variants visis vistis give rise to
visti as well as visi." This seems unnecessary, as it is quite possible that tt!i
became st in Latin, though tt may have at once become s,'!, or, more probably,
remained as it was, and visti would drag over ^i-ittis.

The advantages of this arrangement are
1. That it supposes a fairly continuous development, each stage
in the process being so to speak homogeneous until it is completed.
a. The singular perfect active is remodelled on
i. the plural perfect active,
ii. the singular perfect middle, and
iii. difierent forms within its own system are levelled.
/3. The aorist which has
i. meanwhile undergone phonetic change and conse-
quent internal analogical readjustment,
ii. is now gradually and consistently remodelled on
the plan of the perfect, which still survives.
iii. The loss of its 1st person by rhotacism precipitates
the fusion of the tenses, and
y. The flexion of the aorist is now transfeired bodily to
the perfect as well.
2. By taking the aorist as the back-bone of the structure it
avoids the diflSculty of lengthening the stem- vowel of the perfect.
3. It shortens the process by which t or d is added to the 3rd
pers. sing, of the form with a long stem-vowel.
4. It accepts the aid of both methods of explaining the forma-
tion of the 2nd pers. sing, in -isti, and
5. This part of the scheme is not vitiated by Osthoff's objection
to "uejdasm etc." in I.-Eu. since deiximus, deixtis would give deixti
on the ■/•' of vidimiis, mstis, msti.
6. Osthoff's objection (Perf. p. 571) to the accent vevdesm/as
sedeshos by the side of Casmsna *pruzx4na is now removed if we
suppose the first to have belonged to the older, the others to the
later stage of the Latin accent : v. supra, p. 65 foil.

TEUBNER'S OETENTAL SERIES.
"A knowledge of the commonplace, at least, of Oriental literature, philosophyj
and religion is as necessary to the general reader of the present day as an acquaint-
ance -with the Latin and Greek classics was a generation or so ago. Immense strides
have been made within the present century in these branches of Ifaming ; Sanscrit
has been^brought within the range of accurate philology, and its invaluable aincient
literature thoroughly investigated ; the language and sacred books of the Zoroastriana
have been laid bare ; Egyptian, Assyrian, and other records of the remote past have
been_ deciphered, and a group of scholars speak of still more recondite Accadian and
Hittite monuments ; but the results of all the scholarship that has been devoted to
these subjects have been almost inaccessible to the public because they were contained
for the most part in learned or expensive works, or scattered throughout the numbers
of scientific periodicals. Messrs. Truenek & Co., in a spirit of ^enterprise which
does them infinite credit, have determined to supply the constantly-increasing want,
and to give in a popular, or, at least, a comprehensive form, all this mass of know-
ledge to the world." — Times.

The *' Jataka " is a collection of legends in Pali, relating the history of Buddha's trans-
miration before he tvrb born as Gotama. The great antiquity of this work is authenticated
by its forming part of the sacred canon of the Southern Buddhists, which was finally settled at
the last Council in 246 b.c. The collection has long been known as a storehouse of ancient
fables, and as the most original attainable source to which almost the whole of this kind of
literature, from the Panchatantra and Pilpay's fables down to the nursery stories of the present
day, is traceable ; and it has been considered desirable, in the interest of Buddhistic studies as
Well as for more general literary purposes, that an edition and translation of the complete
work should be prepared. The present publication is intended to supply this want.— Athenceum.
