The Secret of the Chinese Method of Transcribing Foreign Sounds is a book written by Gustaaf Schlegel in 1900. The book explores the Chinese method of transcribing foreign sounds and provides a detailed analysis of the Chinese system of phonetics. The author explains the use of Chinese characters to represent foreign sounds, and how this system differs from the phonetic systems used in Western languages. The book also examines the historical development of Chinese phonetics, and how it has been influenced by other languages and cultures. The Secret of the Chinese Method of Transcribing Foreign Sounds is an important resource for linguists, historians, and anyone interested in the study of Chinese language and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
