Excerpt from A Key to the Classical Pronunciation of Greek, Latin, and Scripture Proper Names I could have wished it had been undertaken by a person of more learning and leisure than myself); but we often wait in vain for works of this kind, from those learned bodies which ought to produce them, and at last are obliged, for the best we can get, to the labours of some necessitous individual. Being long engaged in the instruction of youth, I felt the want of a work of this kind, and have supplied it in the best manner I am able. If I have been happy enough to be useful, or only so far useful as to in duce some abler hand to undertake the subject, I shall think my labour: amply rewarded. I shall still console myself with reflecting, that he who has pro duced a prior work, however inferior to those that succeed it, is under a very different predicament from him who produces an after-work inferior to those that have gone before.

Excerpt from A Key to the Classical Pronunciation of Greek, Latin, and Scripture Proper Names: To Which Are Added, Terminational Vocabularies of Hebrew, Greek, and Latin Proper Names; With Observations on the Greek and Latin Accent and Quantity The Proper Names in Scripture have still a higher claim to our attention. That every thing contained in that precious repository of divine truth should be rendered as easy as possible to the reader, cannot be doubted: and the very frequent occasions of pronouncing Scripture Proper Names, in a country where reading the Scripture makes part of the religious worship, seem to demand some work on this subject more perfect than any we have hitherto seen.

Proper names from the Greek and Latin form so considerable a part of every cultivated living lan guage, that a Dictionary seems to be imperfect with out them. Polite scholars, indeed, are seldom at a loss for the pronunciation of words they so frequently. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from An Universal and Critical Dictionary of the English Language: To Which Are Added Walker's Key to the Pronunciation of Classical and Scripture Proper Names, Much Enlarged and Improved; And a Pronouncing Vocabulary of Modern Geographical Names IN the Introduction to this Dictionary, may be found remarks on ortho epy or pronunciation, orthography, etymology or the derivation of words, grammar, archaisms, provincialisms, Americanisms, and on various other points of philology and lexicography, and also explanations of the principles adopted in the preparation of the work. Prefatory Observations are also pre fixed to the enlarged edition of Walker's Key, inserted in this volume, and likewise to the Pronouncing Vocabulary of Modern Geographical Names. To these several introductory pages the reader is referred for various explanations and remarks, which it is unnecessary here to repeat. In relation to etymology, or the derivation of English words, the general rule which has been followed is, to give the etymons of such words as are derived from languages foreign to the English, namely, the Greek, Latin, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, German, Danish, Swedish, c. The Anglo Saxon being the mother tongue of the English, and the greater part of the English words which are of most frequent occurrence being derived from that language, with more or less change of their orthography, the etymology of these words of anglo-saxon origin is, for the most part, omitted.

Excerpt from Johnson's English Dictionary, as Improved by Todd and Abridged by Chalmers: With Walker's Pronouncing Dictionary Combined; To Which Is Added, Walker's Key to the Classical Pronunciation of Greek, Latin and Scripture Proper Names The flppendiai contains all the words newly added by Mr. Todd in his second edition a number Of words, that are found in the body of the Dictionary, here repeated for the sake of some correction or remark; a few words of unquestionable authority, which were omitted by Dr. Johnson and Mr. Todd and some words which are more or less used in America. The Editor, however, has not undertaken to supply all the authorized English words, which are omitted, hor to remark upon all that are imperfectly exhibited, in the Dictionary; but he has noticed such only as readily occurred to him, without any extended research. There are some words, which have grown out of our peculiar institutions and local circumstances, and some new uses of authorized English words, which are not to be condemned but there are other new words, which have sprung up among us, and new applications of Old ones, which deserve no countenance: The number of 'americanisms, however, which are properly SO called, is not great. Some words, which have been so considered, are to' be found in the writings Of Englishmen, as well as Americans; and many others had their origin in Great Britain, and are still known in some parts Of that country as provincialisms, though they, are not Often found in books.
