CATHOLIC
COMPLETE SPELLER,
ORAL AND WRITTEN,
BY A CATHOLIC TEACHER
MONTREAL:
JAMES A. SADLIE
R
Pi: '::Hb
FO^ IJfSTSitrCT03lS.
SUCCESS IN SPELLING requires short lessonn thorouRhly learned and
daily reviews. In class recitation, Pronunciation should be the Jirst
exercise. Let pupils who ran write copy tlic words and jironounce and
spell them from the copy ; and all others read and spell the words from the book.
Jn Orel Sin-lllnff, the teacher should pronounce the woriis correctly, without
regard to their orthoRraphy ; and pupils, in general, should merely name the
letters ol words, making a marked pause at the end of each syllable, and imitate
the teacher in their pronunciation. Pupils who misspell words should be required
to write them on the blackboard, as m sspelled, and to correct them in writing,
bcf ire the class.
IHctiitlon JtfrhivM.— After pupils liave pronounced the words in the columns,
find spelled them flraUj\ they will n-rtrf the corresponding Diitati.ut Iie?'in,'s with
great care, thus testing their pronunciation and recalling their attention to the /omt
of the words. The teaclier will read the sentences slowly and distinctly, while the
pupils write them. Bl.ikboard exercises are prelerred for class use. Slates may
be expeditiously examined by reciuiring pupils to exchange, so that each ont- shall
become the inspector o( his neighbor's work, while the teacher spells the several
words. A record of the words misspelled or mispronounced sliouUl be kept by the
pupils, for reviews ami special drill. Plain and inexpensive blank books, of good
material and moderate s\/..\ are preferable for this purpose.
The IiifrnihictloH tint! thr .l/>/»»'i»rf<.r should be mastered at an early day,
and applied constantly by the class throughout the body of the work. Pupils must
also be required to construct short sentences from Words of the Li.sts not employed
in Dictation, showing their meaning and best use. The teacher should exercise a
constant and wise supervision, encouraging the pupils to do their own work, and
giving only the needed suggestions and aid.
Entered according to Act of Parliament, A. D. 1883, by

PREFACE.
s-
A DOMINION SPELLING-HOOK, complete in all its parts,
so classified as to afford both a brief and an extended
course, is a desideratum for Catholic schools. This work
adopts the following approved views : That spelling and pronuncia-
tion can be taught successfully only in union : that the exercises
should be both oral and written, and the lessons and methods strictly
educational; and that formal definition, which precludes effective
classification, be dispensed uith. Its lWab„ta,y is the one actually
connected with the subjects presented, and used in good speaking
and writing. Words characteristic of our own country, such as
toboggan and voyageur, and the important geographical' names of
the Dominion are also given. The I-xerciscs are massed topically
into well-defined divisions of suitable length. The Lessons are short
and strictly consecutive.
Significant Monosyllables arc first introduced with special refer,
ence xo/onn and somnt, and arranged in columns, with the vowels in
line, to exhibit itvMvidual characteristics and similarity of formation.
A separate less< i .s given for each vowel sound and a single vowel
used therewith-after which all equivalent letters are introduced in
like manner. At each opening of the book, the lessons and the/
corresponding reviews face one another, the former in common prin.
and the latter in IVnttm Characters. Thirty-five lessons are thus
printed in ivriiiug.
The Topics of Part Second embrace Ma>,, and the Animal, Ve-reta-
^/..and Mineral Kingdo.us. The lessons relate to, or are connected
with, the household; the human body and its members; its food,
drink, and clothing; the house, grounds, and out-buildings • jjfc
mind, training, and school studies; religion ; law and politics ; medi'
erne ; farming ; trade and occupations ; travel and traffic ; war, etc.

Preface.
Assorted words of similar form and Instk, .hus grouped with refer
ence to time, place, use. and meaning, are so arranged in columns as
to add to the beauty of the printed page, while effecting a saving of
une-fourth of the space. As the short and simple words of each topic
are ,n the hrst two or three columns of the page, lessons may readHy
be assigned, adapted to the capacity of all classes
Religion is here so treated as to contribute to a more thorough
understanding of the divine offices of the Church, her rites vest-
ments, and ceremonies, and her doctrines and practices.
Dictation Reviews are invariably given. They contain essential
definitions and discriminations, aptly illustrate the best use of the
words, and test both the pronunciation and the spelling. They are
suggestive of forms and modes of construction to be employed dailv
by teachers and pupils.
Good Pronunciation receives ample consideration. The Introduc
tory Treatise gives, in practical form, the nature, properties, and
sounds of the letters ; accent ; the analysis of words ; and a Key to .11
of mbster^s marked letters, with the additional combinations, ou o.v
tTi. ^, fli, Vh, and ng, making a complete Phonic Alphabet Exaci
syllabication; primary and secondary accents; marked letters both
.n accented and unaccented syllables; respellings ; and Italics, for
silent letters, are used wherever needed.
The Appendix, as here revised and enlarged, is vitally important to
the successful study of this book. It contains Words Pronounced
Siinilarly, Facts in Pronunciation. Rules in Spelling. Prefixes and
Suffixes, Capital Letters. Punctuation Marks, Abbreviations. Names
of Persons, and seven lessons in Test Words. These divisions are
accompanied with the needed explanations and dictation exercises
They should be learned at an early day, and applied constantly
throughout the body of the work.

EXERCISES IN ANALYSIS.
/. Analyze Mat.—T^q word Mat is aprimitivo mono-
Byllable. As spoken^ it is formed of three oral elements
m a t— mat. [Hero the pupil will utter tho thre" oral ele-
ments separately, and then pronounce the word.] The/;v
is a modified tone ; hence, a subtonic. The second is a
pure tone ; hence, a tonic. The third is a modified breath-
ing ; hence, an atonic.
The word Mat, aa written, is represented by the letter
mat. M represents a subtonic; hence, a consonant. It
oral element is chiefly formed by the nose and the lips
hence,i a nasal-labial. A represents a tonic ; hence, ;
vowel. T represents an atonic; hence, a consonant. It
oral element is chiefly formed by the tongue ; hence, a lin
gual. Its oral element is produced by the same organ an(
in a similar manner as that of d; hence, a cognate of d.
2. Analyze Icy. — The word Icy is a derivative dissylla
ble, accented on its first syllable. It is formed from tli
primitive word ice and tho vowel y. As spoketi, it i
formed of three oral elements ; i' s i — icy. The first is
pure tone ; hence, a tonic. The second is a modified breatL
ing : hence, an atonic. The third is p, pure tone ; henc(
a tonic.
The word Icy, as written, is represented by the letter^
icy. 7 represents a tonic ; hence, a vowel. C represent
an atonic ; hence, a consonant. It represents the oral el
ment of s j hence, an alphabetic equivalent of s. Y repre
Bents a tonic; hence, a vowel. It represents the seconi
oral element of i; hence, an alphabetic equivalent oft.
3. Analyze Out-of-door. — The word Out-of-door is
compound trisyllable, having secondary accent on its fi/rt

SISTER and I love mamma. A babe is an infant, or young child '
I may say it and its of a baby, though a boy or girl ; as, It is
like its papa. Our uncle and aunt are husband and wife Theirj
children are our cousins. A nephew is a son, and a niece a daughter
of one's brother or sister. In our household are parents, children'
and servants. Father is muster. Mother is matron, housewife oA
mistress of tlie family. The domestics are men, women, youth, and
maidens. Sponsors in baptism are godfather and godmother. Thevf
contract a spiritual kinship with their godchild and its parents whicij
is an impediment to marriage. f
//. My body has members, limbs, or parts, The parts of the hea J
and neck are face, hair, scalp, skull, brain, etc. Parts of the trunkl
and waist are breast, chest, lungs, stomach, abdomen, etc. Thef

le blood from the heart to all parts of the body, and the veins
eturn it. A tendon is a cord or bundle of fibers which gives motion
|rom a muscle to a bone. With my limbs I hold, jerk, stir, walk,
Jneel, stamp, etc. The instep is the front of the tarsus. The eight
aall bones of the wrist are called the carpus.
III. Bread is made of the flour or meal of grain. Pastry is pies,
arts, cake, and the like, made in part of paste, or dough. Animal
ood is a part of our victuals, viands, diet, or fare. Meat is flesh,
|sh, vegetables, and all things eaten for nutriment, or nourishment',
Hse water, milk, tea, coffee, cocoa, chocolate, sherbet, lemonade,
Jr swi* hel, for a potable, beverage, or drink. A butler keeps cider,
; leer, wine, and other liquors. A ragow* is a stew, or hash.
.": , is wild meats for food. I like a mutton-chop, a leg of lamb,
loin of veal, a sirloin beefsteak, pork ham, a rasher of bacon,'
ausage, haslet, tripe, liver, souse, etc. We eat curd, cheese, cream.'
[utter, etc. In our garden we have corn, peas, beans, onions, lettuce,

[Pupils will give Reasons, in accordance with the Rules and Exceptions. /or the
SPELLING o/the following sentences.^
HIS Stiff staff and the muff are at the mill, and I will get them
as I pass. This class is full. Burn the gas. If you hiss,
puss will run off. My son ate an egg in the inn. If he add the num-
bers, he will not err. The odd lad has fuzz on his cOat,
2, A robber robbed the foppish squatter. It is his preference that
you commit the business to a committee. After his acquittal, the
swimmer owned that be committed the crime. I visited the toiling
mechanic. The violist made a perilous descent. Equalize the labor.
S. I found some zinc on the wreck. He broke the rack on a rock.
The maniac will attack you. The public like music. The wooer
passed many blissful moments. The pasture is hilly, and almost
grassless. He acted oddly, and spoke gruffly. My agreeable friend
noticed your recklessness and embarrassment.
.4. I foretell, if you recall him, that he will misspell the word. I
foresee, if you do not repass that house, that he will forestall your
purchase, and undersell you. The consul says that the leader of
that cabal' is a rebel. I will control the damsel until you arrange
the contract. That logical argument will dispel her fear, and render
her mind tranquil.
Ck Though the conduct of that admirable and amiable youth
seems blamable, I deem it unadvisable to censure him. The scene is

Imaginable, describable, and com'parable. The qnertlon is debSt-
able, and the decision reversible. Fire is singeing that valuable dress.
That agreeable and peaceable smith, while shoeing a manageable and
serviceable horse, was eying a wgman dyeing yam.
C. The life of that nameless man was peaceful. That careless and
graceless girl acted rudely. What incitement, or encouragement, has
he to submit tamely to this management ? That lad's idleness and
rudeness are wholly chargeable to his parents. Your acknowledg-
ment was duly received. An abridgment of his argument will enable
you to form a correct judgment. To thb unrepentant wicked, the
approach of death is truly awful.
7. His pitiful ambition happily provoked her merriment. Her
giddiness and merciless conduct luckily justify my course. Her
shyness and the dryness of his remark verified the report. The be.
trayer delayed his return. His boyish freaks destroyed my enjoy-
ment. What he said, when verifying the statement, was edifying.
He paid his debts daily. While occupyin<5 "^1 house, he is unscru-
pulously multiplying my troubles,
8. The horseman found the snow knee-deep. The innkeeper will
buy shell-fish. I found a handful of plums under the plumb-line.
Always fulfill the laws of the all-wise Lawgiver, Do not misspell the
following words : Christmas, pastime, shepherd, wherever, whosever,
wherefore, therefore, derrick, havoc, gassing, gaseous, gassy, gasify.

IV. PREFIXES AND SUFFIXES.
1. DEFTJ\riTIOJ{S.
A PREFIX is a word, or part of a word, placed before
another to form with it a new word. It usually
changes or increases the meaning of a word before which it
is placed, as vx, not, in Mwholy, which means not holy;

S. A Suffix is a word, or part of a word, placed after
another to form with it a new word. It usually modifies
the primitive word in meaning, or adds euphony.
3. Pupils will be required to master the following pn'
fixes and suffixes, the teacher carefully explaining hoiu they
modify or alter the meaning of the primitive words. Short
lessons should be assigned ; and pupils should change, for
each recitation, a given number of primitive words, taken
from preceding lists, into derivatives, introducing them into
sentences in such a manner as to illustrate their meaning
and use. They should also spell orally the primitives and
derivatives, giving the original meanings and the modifica-
tions.

CAPITAL letters, correctly used, add %o the beauty of writing ;
as, said the poet, "Science and Art, and Learning pale, all
crown my thoughts with flowers." When the tyrant Tempest is

were these : "The winds roared, and the rains fell, when the poor

S. God only on the Cross lay hid from view.

tion. The elFect of the so-called Reforma+ion was to disrupt Christen,

VI. PUNCTUATION MARKS.
THE Comma [ , ] marks the smaUest division of a sen-
tence, and usually represents the shortest pause.
2. The Semicolon [; J separates such p-^rts of a sentence
as are somewhat less closely connected than those divided
by a comma, and represents a longer pause.
5. The Colon [;] separates parts of a sentence less
closely connected than those which are divided by a semi-
colon, and sometimes is placed before a direct quotation.
Jf. The Period [ .] is placed at the c1of<^ of a declarative
8entence, and usually represents a full stop. It must be
used after every abbreviated word; as, Geo. Stevens, Esq.
^ 5. The Interroga tion Point [ ? ] shows that a question
is asked ; as, Do you love flowers ?
6. The Exclamation Point [ I ] is placed after words
that express surprise, astonishment, admiration, and other
strong feelings ; as, " Alas, my son ! that thou shouldst die ! "
7. The Dash [— ] is used when a sentence breaks off
abruptly : when there is an unexpected turn in sentiment;
and when a 16ng or significant pause is required.
8. Marks of Parenthesis ( ) are used when an expres-
sion which interrupis the progress of a sentence is intro-
duced ; a«, I have st.n charity (if charity it may be called)
insult with an air of pity.
9. Brackets [ ] are used to inclose words that explain
one or more words of a sentence, or point out a reference ; as,
Washington [the Father of his Country] read the Bible'
account of the creation. [See Genesis, chap, i.]

quotation within a quotation; as, ''It is writfjn in the
Scripture: *I said, Ye are gods.'" These marks may be
omitted when the exact words of the author are not given.
11. The Index, or Hand [|^*], points out a passage
for special attention ; as, " |^* All orders will be promptly
and carefully attended to."
12. An Apostrophe ['], a mark distinguished from a
comma by being placed above the line, denotes the omission
of one or more letters; as, 'Tis, for it is. It is also used
before s in the singular number, and after s in the plural, to
indicate possession ; as, Cora's rose, boys' hate.
13. The Caret [ a ] is used only in writing, to point to
letters or words above it that were accidentally omitted; as,
t his
Let me scrach eyes out.
A A
11 Marks of Ellipsis [ ....****] are formed by
means of a long dash, or of a succession of periods or stars
of various lengths, and are used to indicate the omission of
letters in a word, of words in a sentence, or of one or more
sentences ; as. Friend C s is in trouble. "Thou shalt
love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and thy
neighbor as thyself."
15. The Hyphen [-] is chiefly used to unite the words
of which a compound is formed, when each of them retains
its original accent; as, In'cense-breath'ing morn. It is
placed after a syllable ending a line, when a word is divided.
IQ. The Section [ § ] is sometimes used to divide books
or chapters into smaller portions.

made to remarks or notes in the margin, at the bottom
of the page, or some other part of the book. Letters and
figures are now more generally used for marks of reference.

to mdicate its first or alphabetic sound; as. Rage, Old.
20. The Breve, or Short [-], is placed over a vowel
to mdicate its second or short sound; as. Hilt, find, dn.
21. The Dimresis [ ••] is placed over the latter of two
vowels to show that thej are to be pronounced separately;

2. St. Augustine says : "Through the sin of the first man, which
issued from his free will, our nature became vitiated and ruined ; and
nothmg ever came to its succor but God s grace alone, through Him
who IS the Mediator between God and men. and our Almighty Phy.
sician." It is tl:e thirteenth chapter of Wisdom, which first makes
a most remarkable distinction between those who "worshiped the
works of God "-Nature-and those who " adored the works of man "
-idols. Nor would I have granted it at this time (because I look
upon such occasions just as you do), did I not fear that the refusal
would have added to the bitterness of feeling. St. Paul writes to the
Romans: "But what saith the Scripture? 'The word is nigh thee
even in thy mouth and in thy heart : ' this is the word of faith which
we preach." " jj^ No swearing will be permitted here."
3. I have known that Thou art my God ; I know that Thou art

there was a time, and a time fatal to me, when T knew Thee not.
Woe to that blindness, when I saw not Thee I Woe to that deafness
when I heard Theo not I For, blind and deaf, I went in pursuit of
those beautiful thmgs which Thou hast made. Thou wast still with
me, but I was not with Thee : those things kept me at a distance
from Thee, which could not exist but in Thee. Thou hast enlight< ned
me, O Light of the world, and I have seen Thee, and I loved Thee I
For no man loves Thee who does not see Thee, and none can see Thee
who does not love Thee. Too late have I loved Thee, O ancient
Beauty ! too late have I loved Thee, Beauty ever new! and woe to
that time when I loved Thee not ! Remember that thou keep holy
the Sabbath day. Six days shalt thou labor and shalt do all thy

' By courtesy all abbot?, whether mitred or not, have the game style and address.
However in addressing an abbot merely residing in an abbey, without being its
abbot, of course " Abbot of " would be omitted, for the reason that, although
an abbot, he has no abbey. The form (c 2) would perhaps be used only by a monk
subject to the abbot or belonging to his order; or by a boy or girl educated by
moults or nuns of his order, or in some way connected with the order or the abbot.
' Both are styled, like bishops and abbots. Right Reverend, «nd are generally
called Monsignores, a title, however, which is given, in Italy, to all prelates above
them, except to cardinals and abbots ; and to some dignitaries below them. Among
English-speaking Catholics it is not used of archbishops and bishops.
3 Monsignor has become more or less anglicised ; consequently, Monseigneur,
which is French, should not be used except when writing in that language. Mon-
signor and Monsignore (Italian) are used indifferently, but in English the former is
preferable.
* It will be noticed that the 1st and 2d of the above forms apply equally to I. and
II.; the 3d and 4th to I. only ; the 5th to II. only.
