CORRESPONDENCE 623 



A scheme on these lines would cause English, already the 

 language of two great nations, to become the international 

 language of science.

SCIENCE AND THE INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGE 



From H. Whichello 



Dear Sir, — I should like to suggest that you should publish 

 an article in each number of Science Progress of general 

 scientific interest in the simple Latin Messrs. Prideaux suggest. 

 A common pronunciation would have to be agreed upon. 

 Each country now has. its own way of pronouncing the con- 

 sonants. That of the Roman Church would be the most 

 convenient, as it can be heard in all countries where there 

 is a large Roman Catholic church or cathedral. 



Yours faithfully, 



H. Whichello.
