Quantification in Natural Languages (NATO Asi Series. Series D, Behavioural and Social Scien... Book

It kind of makes me wonder if learning Latin, Spanish, and German first will actually make learning to speak French more easier. A lot of people had told French is the hardest language to learn, but the way the author describes how every region borrowed "loanwords" from others it makes one feel as though learning a new language would be easy and fun. I also love the way Stevenson speaks about the history and gives the reader a clear understanding of how the languages of other countries came about in literature. I most definitely learned more than I thought I would while reading this book and thoroughly enjoyed it.
