Reviews
“In this book, Li Suogui offers a careful chronological study of lexical beginnings from Russian and Chinese primarily and then of merging interests over a period of more than a century. In researching and distilling his basic materials the author faced a challenging task, given the radical differences between these two otherwise unrelated languages, spoken and written, Mr. Li has met these challenges involved very successfully.”
