First Danish edition of Rask's 'Grammar of the Danish Language', translated by his half-brother H. K. Rask. This edition often appears with the variant title page stating: ""R. K. Rasks / Danske Sproglære, / fra Engelsk oversat / og indrettet til Brug for Danske."" The most significant difference between the two variants is the ""K."", short for Kristian, in Rask's name. Due to his critical thoughts on Christianity, and religion altogether, Rask stopped using 'Kristian' as a middle name. Accordingly, it is reasonable to assume that the title page of the present copy is the second title page, added later as desired by H. K. Rask. Hjelmslev I, 211.
