"History of the Koranas. Prof. Karl Meinhof's New Book. Der Koranadialekt des Hotentottischen. (The Korana Dialect of Hottentot.) By Carl Meinhof..." The "Cape Times" reviews German linguist Carl Meinhof's book, a result of time he spent at Pniel studying the Korana. The author feels the real value of the book, for the student of philology, lies in its careful analysis of the language and comparison with other Hottentot dialects (e.g. Nama). The illustration appearing in this clipping is not related to the article.
