 THE ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF THE ASAMIYA LANGUAGE language become more complex, artificial and high-sounding, few In- stances of which may be repeated. Ved, rakela (Asm, udhali, bark of a tree). Sans walkalom; Ved. Sapa (Asmah, crop), Sans. dasya; Ved. iskat (Asmlakat, strong), Sans, Akta; Ved. vita (Asm, wit, wealth). Sans vitte Ved, shes (Asmail, courage), Sans, salasa: Ved, sol (Asm, seed, truth). Sans, satyam; and so fourth. Naturally the OL.A. dialects were free to enjoy linguistie exchanges; but the hard and fast rules of Plinini and others put a stop not only to these exchanges but also to the life-breath of the living language in their earnest endeavour to Aryanise or refine it.
