Citazioni | [...] there is such a thing as a basic plan, a certain cut, to each language. This type or plan or structural 'genius' of the language is [...] more fundamental, [...] pervasive, than any single feature of it [...] nor can we gain an adequate idea of its nature by a mere recital of the sundry facts that make up the grammar of the language. |
