Department of Oriental Printed Books & Mss., British Museum - Wonders if Frazer could refer him to works in which the desire to avoid being counted amongst primitive races is discussed; mentions the mixing of numbered masculine nouns mixed with feminine form of the numeral and vice versa in Hebrew as a possible form of avoiding the 'Evil Eye'.
