Nearly Half Million Words in English Our Language Borrows Profusely and Vocabulary Multiplies Rapidly "The English vocabulary has grown to great size," says Professor Clark S. [Xorthup, of Cornell University, one of ! the editors of The New Universities Dictionary now being distributed by this paper exclusively to its readers; "The number of words found in Old English literature does not exceed thirty thousand; recent dictionaries have listed more than four hundred thousand, mostly of foreign origin. iYet most writers use mainly English ! words. "Shakespeare used ninety per cent, of English words; tho English Bible contains ninety-four per cent.; Milton eighty-one per cent.; Addison eighty two per cent.; Tennyson eighty-eight per cent. Most of our shortest and simplest words are of native origin. "If any language comes into close contact with another, there is likeli hood of word-borrowing. English is one of the most cosmopolitan of languages. From the French it began to borrow even before the Norman conquest; after that, as intercourse with France increased, it borrowed heavily from the Norman and Parisian French. Many Spanish and Italian words have come In as a result of com mercial activity." Floods ot coupons continue pouring In for The New Universities Diction ary. The distributing clerks are kept busy. The publishers have been or dered to keep a big supply bound and ready for emergency calls. It looks as though the raid on the supply would soon make a replenishment necessary. Such a rush was not expected but this paper Is greatly pleased to see read ers taking such enthusiastic advan tage of its educational offer.
