University of California Publications in Classical Philology, Vol. 8: 1924-1928 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from University of California Publications in Classical Philology, Vol. 8: 1924-1928
Attempts to picture pre-literary conditional speaking have been curiously warped by theories as to the function of the moods in indo-european. Even today a certain vogue attaches to the rather naive view that, from the very outset, the moods were sharply differentiated in use, each being restricted to a special range of meaning.
This assumption postulates an 'o-riginal' or 'fundamental' meaning for each mood; and the investigator sets himself the task of relating all uses of the historical period to these presupposed original or fundamental meanings.
