islandés

EN To a professed linguist, therefore, the natural advice would be --examine the structure of as many languages as possible; gather as many thousand specimens as possible into your hortus siccus; beginning with the eldest forms of the Teutonic, viz.: the Visigothic and the Icelandic, for which the aids rendered by modern learning are immense.
GL Para un lingüista profeso, por tanto, o consello natural sería: examina a estructura de tantas linguas como sexa posible, reúne tantos miles de espécimes como sexa posible no teu hortus siccus, empezando polas formas máis vellas do teutónico, en concreto, o visigótico e o islandés, para o que as axudas prestadas polos estudios modernos son inmensas.
