In Russian H has the value of N.
Turning to the Teutonic and Keltic stocks, one notices a marked contrast in the fortunes of H. In High German it has retained an important and prominent position ; although, generally speaking, it is less conspicuous in Low German tongues. The simple Aspirate, and the other and harsher varieties of H, were univers- ally received into the Keltic languages ; the Cymric branch shewing a slight preference for the former, and the Gaelic for the more guttural variety.
... Prof. Geddes remarks : " The Gaelic DISTRIBUTION. 25 alphabet contains a letter to which, apart from a partial parallel in Greek, I am not aware of an exact parallel in any tongue. It begins no words, heads no vocabulary in the dictionary, and yet is found everywhere diffused over a Gaelic page. " Something partly similar appears to exist in Sanscrit, a highly aspirated language with seemingly no purely initial H. Max MuUer* and most other writers give S ^s being the Sanskrit H, whereas some affirm it more pro- perly to represent gh, Arabic and other Shemitic languages abound with Aspirates ; in the former, at least, they do stalwart service.
