Extract

Through the kindness of Professor Sturtevant we have been supplied with information about Hittite to enable us to make a Hittite column for the distribution table used in our study of Indo-European linguistic relationships by the quantitative method. The distribution of plus and minus signs for the Hittite column is as follows :

Plus: 6, 7, 14, 22, 25, 26, 32, 36, 42, 45, 47, 52, 55, 64.

Blanks: 3, 4, 9, 15, 16, 27, 28, 29, 30, 48, 67, 68.

Minus: all the rest except 8.
