another language (that is, to deny uniqueness) is a grave error. For

Latin grammar (except in a few instances where Latin and English do
share 4structural patterns4), on the 5mistaken assumption5 that English 4. รปู แบบ

Again, therefore we are confronted with the same kind of two-
way pull we have experienced with nearly all universals: languages have
many features in common (they are spoken, systematic, symbolic, etc.);

but arrange in different ways. All of us walk, but at a different pace; ขา้ ม

Paradox appears in language because it appears in human life.
