The publishers respectfully invite attention to the
following eminent testimony to the excellence of
this standard dictionary.
The execution of this Dictionary fully answers
to its title. The VOCABULARY is probably more
comprehensive than that Of all preceding English
Dictionaries united Constant reference is made to
AUTHORITIES with respect to words newly intro
duced, and is taken to note such are tecbni-
cal, foreign, obsolete, provincial, or vulgar. The
pEFINITIoNs clear and exact, and those per
tanning to technical and scientific terms are spe
cialy valuable to the general reader. The author
TIoN. His system of Notation, which is easily I'M
derstOod, and founded on a more complete analysis
of the vowel sounds than we have elsewhere met
with, together with his plan of exhibiting all the
best English authorities in relation to words differ
emily pronounced by different orthoepiss, gives to
this work important advantages as Pronouncing
Dictionary. In onTHoaRAPHy he has made no ar
bitrary changes, but where usage ia various and
fuctuating, he has aimed to be consistent, and to
reduce to the same rules words of similar forma-
ton. The insertion of G Grammatical forms and in,
Elections of words to much greater extent than
they given in other English Dictionaries, and
the short critical notes the photography, the pro-
nuncintion, the grammatical form and construc-
ton, and the peculiar, technical, local, and Amer
give to this work much additional value. The &C
pious Vocabulary Of Modern Geographical names.
with their pronunciation, and greatly enlarged
and improved edition of Walkers Key to the pro-
nunciation of Cassicaland Scripture proper names,
arc important appendages to the Dictionary.
Eighteen months have passed since this Dictionary
was pubishcd and its already extensive use, both
among cultivated English readers, and men of wide
learning affords good testimony of its merits. We
confidently recommend it as containing an ample
and careful view of the present state of our Ian
guage.
