Let us now add the termination _o_, and we have the following list of formatives:
Of these verbal forms only two occur in any of the well-known Southwestern Languages of Europe, namely, _Creo_, I CREATE, of the Latin, Italian, etc., and _Crio_, I REAR, of the Spanish. The other forms are entirely unused. Of any other simple series of Euphonic combinations, such as Phonetic art can readily construct, there is the same wasteful neglect, and, in consequence of this total failure of the scientific world to extract these treasures of Phonic wealth lying directly beneath their feet, they are driven to such desperate devices as that of naming the two best-known and most familiar order of fishes, those usually found on our breakfast tables, _Acanthopterygii Abdominales_, and _Malacopterygii Subbrachiati_; and the common and beautiful bird called bobolink is _Dolichonyx Orixyvora_. For the same reason--the entire absence of any economical and systematized use of our phonetic materials by the scientific world--the writer found himself, recently, in attempting certain generalizations of the domain of science, stranded almost at the commencement, upon such verbal shoals as _Anthropomorphus Inorganismoidismus_; and the subsequent steps in the mere naming of discriminations simple enough in themselves, became wholly impossible. The urgent necessity existing, therefore, for the radical intervention of Science in the discovery of true principles applicable to the construction of its own tools and instruments, can hardly be denied or questioned.
The immense condensation of meaning, and the consequent compactness and copiousness of which a Language based on a meaning inherently contained by analogy in the simplest elements of sound would be susceptible, would give to such a Language advantages as the instrument of thought and communication, which are but very partially illustrated in the superiority of printing by movable types over manuscript, for the rapid multiplication of books.
