Gegenwauml;rtig verwenden 7 Milliarden Menschen 7000 verschiedene Sprachen. Aber nur 6% der Sprachen haben mehr als 1 Million Sprecher. Oft sind es nicht mehr als 1000 Menschen; die sich in einer Sprache verstauml;ndigen kouml;nnen. Es gibt also groszlig;e und kleine Sprachen. Dieter Wunderlich erklauml;rt; warum das so ist. Wie entstehen neue Sprachen? Welche sind miteinander verwandt? Was haben sie gemeinsam? Was unterscheidet sie? Wie verbreiten sich Sprachen und wohin geht ihre Entwicklung? Der Autor; ausgewiesener Spezialist und Humboldt-Preistrauml;ger; beantwortet alle Fragen anhand konkreter Beispiele; auch aus entlegenen; uns vouml;llig fremden Sprachen. Anschaulich und verstauml;ndlich zeigt er einmal mehr; wie reich und faszinierend die menschliche Sprache ist.

Five StarsBy CherThis was a gift and the receiver thinks it great.3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Interesting Trip Back into Time -By Loyd EskildsonTovrea Castle is a Phoenix landmark started by Alessio Carraro in 1929 and intended as a resort near the Salt River. The Great Depression brought funding problems; and it was purchased by E. A. Tovrea in 1931. Tovreas family continued the construction and added a nearby feed-lot and packing plant for cattle. (The packing plant was eventually acquired by Cudahy; and I worked there part-time for awhile.) Tovreas widow lived in the castle until her death in 1969 after a robbery attempt in which she shot a hole in the ceiling that remains to this day.Tovrea Castle provides an excellent collection of photos taken at the site over the years.
