| Summary | "L'Alfabet européen appliqué aux langues asiatiques" by C.-F. Volney is a scientific publication written in the early 19th century. The work discusses the simplification of Eastern languages through the application of an European alphabet, proposing methods to transcribe various Asian languages using a standardized system. The focus is primarily on the complexities of languages such as Hebrew, Arabic, and others from the Asian continent. The opening of the text introduces readers to the author's dedication to the Asiatic Society and his past contributions to the simplification of Eastern languages. Volney reflects on his journey and previous experiences with language transcription, detailing his observations on the inadequacies of existing systems and the need for a unified approach to create an effective and practical European alphabet for Asian languages. He outlines the structure of the book, which promises a systematic approach to analyzing sounds and letters, and foreshadows a thorough examination of various languages' phonetics, aiming to bridge cultural and linguistic gaps through clearer communication.
