About the author

German philologist and folklorist Jakob Ludwig Karl Grimm in 1822 formulated Grimm's Law, the basis for much of modern comparative linguistics. With his brother Wilhelm Karl Grimm (1786-1859), he collected Germanic folk tales and published them as Grimm's Fairy Tales (1812-1815).

Indo-European stop consonants, represented in Germanic, underwent the regular changes that Grimm's Law describes; this law essentially states that Indo-European p shifted to Germanic f, t shifted to th, and k shifted to h. Indo-European b shifted to Germanic p, d shifted to t, and g shifted to k. Indo-European bh shifted to Germanic b, dh shifted to d, and gh shifted to g.

This jurist and mythologist also authored the monumental German Dictionary and his Deutsche Mythologie .

Mein Lesejahr 2022 starte ich mit meinem Lieblingsmärchen "Aschenputtel".
Ich habe es schon so oft gelesen und verschiedenste Verfilmungen im TV gesehen und werde nie müde, es immer wieder zu lesen, zu sehen und auch zu hören.
Aschenputtel begleitet mich seit meiner Kindheit und wird mich wohl mein Leben lang begleiten.
Ich mag Märchen, und dieses ist schon immer mein liebstes gewesen.

Pecking eyes out is a lot, but the whole family sucks in this.
