[291]. “Je suis donc autorisé à conclure qu’il faut tenir pour absolument fausse cette proposition devenue faute d’y avoir regardé de près, une sorte de clichè: que si les langues Américaines diffèrent entre elles par la lexique, elles possedent néanmoins en commun une seule et méme grammaire.” Examen grammatical comparé de seize langues Américaines, in the Compte-rendu of the Congrès international des Américanistes, 1877, Tome ii, p. 242. As no one ever maintained the unity of American grammar outside of the Einverleibungssystem, it must be to this theory only that M. Adam alludes.
