I have attempted in the foregoing sections to provide a general characterisation of the status of the Cr vocabulary in the early 18304 on the basis of the lexicographical tradition, journalism and prose
A long lexicographical tradition had been marred by dialectal and individual differences which have led to discontinuities in the lexicographical tradition; b) there is an unnecessary and damaging abundance of undifferentiated synonyms; c) the language suffers from a lack of a unified Cr equivalent for many key concepts; d) many words exist solely as dictionary entries rather than having a Syntax Warning: Couldn't link the profiles
Summary
One of the most remarkable consequences of that burgeoning of national consciousness which occupies such a central place in the cultural, social and political development of Europe in the nineteenth century is the création of a large number of new standard languages. Latin and the diminished prestige of French, is the first work to register and comprehend the way in which the distribution of the functions of the various standard languages of Europe had altered so drastically within the previous century. This re-drawing of the linguistic map of Europe placed on these new literary languages functions which necessitated large-scale changes in the structure of the languages themselves, in the texko-semantic domain.
