Excerpt from Chinese Phonetic System and Language: English Translation The scientific study of our Chinese National Language implies an acquaintance with the Science of Languages (philology), a science which is world-wide in its scope. Chinese Philology, while dealing with the. Language of our own country alone, employs the principles and the laws of the Science of Languages by way of illustration. Hence we may learn about the origin of our National Language, its development, its peculiar excellences, its defects, what its position is among the languages of the world, and what its particular value. (this is called Comparative Philology.) Therefore, although Chinese Philology is special to our own country, we must take general Philology which is common to all lands as a basis for our study, in order that it may be valid.
