[20] Dr. Edwards observes, in a communication to the Connecticut Society
of Arts and Sciences, from personal knowledge, that "the Mohegans
(Indians) have _no adjectives_ in all their language. Altho it may
at first seem not only singular and curious, but impossible, that a
language should exist without adjectives, yet it is an indubitable
fact." But it is proved that in later times the Indians employ
adjectives, derived from nouns or verbs, as well as other nations.
Altho many of their dialects are copious and harmonious, yet they
suffered no inconvenience from a want of contracted words and
phrases. They added the ideas of definition and description to the
things themselves, and expressed them in the _same_ word, in a
modified form.

_but_ they went without her."--_Murray._

Murray is _wrong_, _and_ Cardell is _right_. The simplifiers are
wrong, _but_ their standard is so likewise.

Letter._
