 PREFACE. 
 
 TtTR. SHERIDAN and Mr. WALKER axe the only authors who have produced Pronouncing 
 Dictionaries, previous to the present, which could be at all deemed complete ; they 
 having done what all preceding Orthoepists omitted, namely, divided the words of tho 
 English language into syllables, and placed figures over the vowel characters, to distinguish the 
 different sounds which they represent. , 
 
 The present Dictionary contains Fifty-five thousand more words than either Mr. Sheridan's 
 or Mr. Walker's, (in all upwards of ninety thousand) ; and by an improved system of notation, 
 every letter represents a sound actually heard in Pronunciation, so that by merely committing 
 a few rules to memory, even foreigners may acquire a perfect mastery in this department of 
 our language. In addition to these Ninety thousand words I have given nearly twelve 
 thousand Greek, Latin, and Scripture Proper names, divided into syllables, with the sounds of 
 the vowels, and the accents properly marked, making altogether above One Hundred 
 Thousand Words — ^the largest number hitherto comprised in any similar volume. 
 
 I shall not say more of my own labours, or criticise those of my predecessors, but I 
 consider it incumbent on me to state the circumstances which led to the publication of 
 Mr. Walker's Dictionary ; more especially as they are but little known. 
 
 Mr. Sheridan commenced his Dictionary in 1760 ; but did not publish it till 1780. He 
 died at Margate, in Kent, in 1788, on his way to Lisbon for the recovery of his health, 
 attended by his younger son, the late R. B. Sheridan, leaving his Dictionary in the hands of 
 his younger daughter, and his Booksellers, and Publishers, Dilly in the Poultry, Dodsley in 
 Pall Mall, and Wilkie in St. Paul's Church Yard, between whom differences arising, which 
 could not be accommodated, the publication of the Dictionary was discontinued. 
 
 Mr. Walker was at that time a Teacher of Elocution in the Academies in and near 
 ondon ; and was encouraged by the Booksellers, whose names appear to the first edition of 
 
 !;lii8 Dictionary, published in 1791, to take Mr. Sheridan's work, and form another upon it. 
 
 ■•This he did, by merely copying it in the mass : carefully omitting the slightest notice of the 
 lasterly and complete developement of all the simple and compound elementary principles 
 
 lof P^o^unciation, the true nature of our Accent and Emphasis, and the Rules of English

iv PREFACE. 
 
 Versification, &c., which precede the Dictionary, and substituting in their room " 559 Rules, 
 or Principles of Pronunciation," and, from them, deducing a key-line of the vowel sounds, 
 which runs along the head of every page of his Dictionary, mixing up in it the only four 
 diphthong sounds that he allows us, instead of twenty-five, and adding the two con- 
 sonant sounds marked by th, taken from Mr. Sheridan, without acknowledgment, which 
 key-line is exactly given by me in page 8, of my Principles of Pronunciation. Assuming also 
 the oSice of a hypercritic over Sheridan, Kenrick, Elphinstone, Nares, Scott, Perry, &c., by 
 picking out particular words, and agreeing vdth, or differing from some of those authors in the 
 pronunciation ; thereby indirectly intimating, that all theSe authors had produced Pronouncing 
 Dictionaries. 
 
 Now, whoever will take the trouble of examining their works, as I have done, will perceive 
 that no work like Mr. Sheridan's had been previously given as a Pronouncing Dictionary ; and 
 that the works of all those authors, except Kenrick's, are mere Pocket Grammars, giving, 
 under the head of Orthoepy, some correct, and some most absurd and incorrect lists of words, 
 to exemplify the different sounds which the vowel characters, or letters represent ; Kenrick, 
 the most conspicuous, and Mr. Walker, foUovidng in the same track ; not possessing -ears acute 
 enough to distinguish that, y and w, the touchstones of their mistakes, always represent vowel 
 sounds, the former in every place in which it appears, in the beginning, the middle, and the 
 end of words, the sound e, or the diphthong i, as in ye, lovely, by, hi ; and the latter, invariably 
 !hat of in do : as oe, we ; ao, now ; as Louth and Sheridan have demonstrated. 
 
 The following specimen from Kenrick's Dictionary, who lays down sixteen different 
 sounds of the vowels, and refers to them by figures, will show that he merely gives the words, 
 first in their order undivided, with the accentual mark invariably placed over the vowel cha- 
 racter of the syllable which he distinguishes as accented ; and then, divides them into syllables, 
 without any alteration, or addition ; and, without marking the accented letter further than by 
 figures placed over the vowels in each syllable. 
 
 A'dmiral — ad-mi-ral. Adju'st— ad-just. 
 
 A'djutant — ad-ju-tant. A'bbot — ab-bot. 
 
 A'bandon — a-ban-don. A'bdicate. 
 
 Mr. Perry, in his Dictionary, very judiciously taking a hint from Mr. Sheridan, 
 makes the accent fall either on a consonant or vowel, instead of following the absurd 
 practice of all the editors of Johnson, including Todd, of always placing the accentual mark 
 over the vowel. 
 
 Now, though I cannot, at present, enter upon an examination in which I should be able 
 to prove that Mr. Sheridan's Principles of Pronunciation are correct, and that, for one error 
 which he has committed in practically marking the pronunciation of our words, Mr. Walker 
 has committed two, I shall, in common justice to him, briefly point out the grounds upon 
 which he was more particularly qualified to give a Fac-simile Pronouncing Dictionary of the 
 English Language. At the same time, I cannot help expressing my astonishment that, in 
 representing the pronunciations to the eye, ho did not exemplify the first of the four rules 
 which he lays down in his Principles, and which, though it more immediately refers to words 
 as represented to the eye in the spelling or writing of them, has an equal reference to the 
 ear in the pronunciation. The following are the rules : — 
 
PREFACE. V 
 
 K " When written words are considered i^ the types of sounds, in order to make them 
 
 correspond to their archetypes, the four following rules should be strictly observed : — 
 
 " 1. No character should be set down in any word which is not pronounced. 
 
 " 2. Every distinct simple sound should have a distinct character to mark it, for 
 
 which it should uniformly stand. 
 " 3. The same character should never be set dowTi iis the representative of two 
 
 different sounds. 
 4. All compound sounds should be marked only by such characters, as will 
 
 naturally and necessarily produce those sounds, upon their being pronounced 
 
 according to their names in the alphabet." 
 
 Mr. Sheiidan was the third son of the Rev. Doctor Thomas Sheridan, of Quilca, in the 
 County of Cavan, in Ireland, at whose house Dean Swift, young Sheridan's Godfather, spent a 
 great deal of his time, and wrote his Gulliver's Travels ; »nd, together with the father, took great 
 pains with his Godson, in giving him instruction, till, at a very early age, his father sent him to 
 Westminster School. In that seminary he formed friendships with the sons of several of the 
 nobility, the GrenviHes, Percys, Lord Bute, and in particular with the Rev. Dr. Markham, after- 
 wards Archbishop of York ; Sheridan and Markham being accounted the two best scholars of 
 their standing. Thence he was removed to the University of Dublin, in which he took his first 
 degree of A.B,, in 1736, and the degree of A.M. soon after. In November, 1768, he was, on 
 account of his literary reputation, admitted in congregation to the degree of A.M. in the Uni- 
 versity of Cambridge ; and, on the 16th of March, 1759, he was admitted to a similar distinction, 
 in the sister University of Oxford. He gave Lectures on the English Language, and developed 
 his principles of Pronunciation in both Universities, as well as in London, Dublin, and 
 Edinburgh ; and was honoured with the freedom of this last City, which was presented to 
 him by Robertson, the historian. He was also the intimate friend of the Rev. Dr. Robert 
 Sumner, Master of Harrow School ; and of the Rev, Doctor Parr, who succeeded Sumner. In 
 1762, he published his scheme for a Pronouncing Dictionary, and in it developed the correct 
 simple principles on which it should be founded; and in 1762, his late Majesty George the 
 Third, on account of his literary reputation, granted him a Pension of two hundred a-year ; the 
 intelligence of which was communicated to him by his early friend and Patron, the Earl of 
 Bute ; to whom he suggested the propriety of a provision for Doctor Johnson ; and was the first 
 who conmiunicated to Doctor Johnson the Royal intention. Both Pensions were given out of 
 His Majesty's Privy Purse. In 1775, he published in London his Art of Reading Prose, and 
 his Art of Reading Verse, in two volumes ; both of which the compiler of this work read to him 
 in 1776, and 1777, imbibing, from his instructions, that correct knowledge of the fundamental 
 principles of the English language, which, befng gifted with a good ear, has enabled him, after 
 a lapse of so long a period, to fulfil his laborious and difficult undertaking.

 In the first place, they should be able to pronounce 
 properly all the words and sounds in the key-line ; 
 which, in default of masters, they may easily learn to do, 
 Vy hearing them from the mouth of any Englishman. 
 
 And it will be necessary to get the key-line by 
 heart, so as to be able to repeat, and to exemplify, any 
 one of the vowel sounds, separately, in any syllable of a 
 word that presents itself to their eye. 
 
 As this is the master-key to the marks for the vowel 
 sounds throughout, it will be necessary that all, who 
 would know them at sight, should have the perfect 
 use of it according to the above directions. 
 
 Foreigners should also be frequently exercised in the 
 pronunciation of the consonant sounds, preceding them 
 Oy any of the short vowel sounds, as the short sound re- 
 presented by ^— ^m', ^n', ip', it', &', ^t', ^v', eth', ^th', 
 «', ^sh', ^zh', !ng, which, throwing the organs into the 
 exact contact necessary to produce and perfect each of 
 them, will show which of them may be dwelt upon, for 
 a little time, when accented, by keeping the organs to- 
 gether, and which cannot be dwelt upon for the smallest 
 space of time, because the organs must be instantly 
 separated, in order to perfect the sound ; the former, as 
 iV, M', iff, the latter as ^k', ^p', et', of the mutes ; 
 and showing that the sounds of the semivowels may be 
 dwelt upon almost at pleasure, as, el, em, er, &c. 
 
 And in order to conquer the sounds of ^tB and ^th, 
 and other consonants, it will be good practice to follow 
 the sound of the consonant by the vowel sounds, as they 
 Wlow in the key line : as, eth-4, i&i-k, itt-i, ^ffiifi, 
 eth'i, Mi6', eth^!,', im^h', Miit', &c. 
 
 This point obtained, the next step will be to show 
 foreigners how they may acquire the use of such sounds 
 in the English tongue as peculiarly belong to it, whether 
 simple or compound ; with which they were not preac- 
 quainted, and to which, as being novel to them, they 
 find it difficult, and in some cases, for want of proper 
 instruction, impossible, to give utterance. For which 
 purpose I shall point out the difference between the 
 French language and ours in that respect, as that is the 
 most generally known and spoken by foreigners. 
 
 In the French tongue are to be found the sounds of 
 all our vowels ; but it is not so with regard to the con- 
 sonants and diphthongs. 
 
 There ore five of our consonants, which, though 
 marked by two letters each, are in reality simple sounds ; 
 and these are t&, th, sh, zh and ng ; the first two to 
 be ^onnd in the words thin and then, the last in ring, 
 and the sound zh, ezh, in azure, osier. 
 
 Th. 
 
 The consonant th has two powers, according as it is 
 formed by the voice, or the breath : the one may there- 
 fore be called vocal, the other aspirate. Of the former, 
 there has been an example given in the word then , the 
 power of the latter will be found in the word thin. To 
 distinguish them from each other in the Dictionary, the 
 1 atter, or aspirate, has a small line drawn across the h, 
 thus — tfi. As this sound has hitherto been found to be 
 unconquerable by Frenchmen, and most foreigners, it 
 will be necessary to show the cause of the difficulty, and 
 then, by removing that, to point the means by which a 
 right pronunciation of it may be easily attained. 
 
 It is to be observed, then, that in the French tongue, 
 
 all the articulations are formed within the mouth, and 
 the tongue is never protruded beyond the teeth ; con • 
 sequently, unless he is shown how to do it, the foreigner 
 will never of himself place the organ in a position that 
 it never had been in before ; so that, when he is urged 
 to pronounce that new sound, as in the word then, with- 
 out having the position of the organs in forming that 
 sound pointed out to him, he naturally utters the sound 
 that is nearest to it in his own tongue, and, instead of 
 then, says den, and for ffiin, tin ; changing eth to a d, 
 and clh to a t. And this he continues to do all his 
 life, for want of being taught the following plain simple 
 method of necessarily producing those sounds, if it be 
 but strictly followed. Suppose, then, you were desirous 
 of showing a foreigner how he should form the sound eth 
 when it begins a word or syllable ; desire him to pro- 
 trude the tip of his tongue between his teeth and a little 
 beyond them ; in that position let him press it agaii< 
 the upper teeth without touching the under ; then let 
 him utter any voice with an intention of sounding the 
 word then, drawing back the tongue at tlie same 
 time behind his teeth, and the right sound will necessa- 
 rily be produced. To pronounce the eSi, or aspirated 
 th, the organs must be exactly in the same position 
 with the former; but previous to the withdrawing of 
 the tongue, instead of voice, he must emit breath only, 
 which will as necessarily produce the proper power of 
 the aspirated tti, as in the word thin. 
 
 When these sounds end a word, or syllable, as in the 
 words breathe, breath, he must be told, that mstan- 
 taneously after sounding the preceding letters, he is to 
 finish the word by applying the tip of the tongue to th* 
 upper teeth, as before, and in sounding the word 
 breathe, the voice is to be continued to the end ; while 
 in that of breath, the voice is cut off at the vowel, and 
 the consonant th is formed by the breath only. In 
 both cases, it will be of use to continue the tongue i? 
 the same position for some time, prolonging the soun4 
 of the voice in the former, and of the breath in the 
 latter, till the sounds become distinct and easy by prac- 
 tice. This will the more speedily be effected, if he 
 will for some time every day repeat from a vocabulary 
 all the words beginning with th, and form Usts of such 
 words as terminate with it. 
 
 Ng. 
 As to the simple sound or consonant marked by the 
 junction of the two letters ng, it is, perhaps, a sound 
 peculiar to the English language, as in the word sing- 
 song ; and seems to have been taken from the noise 
 made by bells, mimicked in the expression of ding-dong 
 bell. There is a sound in the French nearly approach- 
 ing to it, to be found in such words as dent, camp, and 
 in all their nasal vov/els ; but these are imperfect 
 sounds, and can scarcely be called articulate ; and there 
 only wants to perfect the articulation to make the 
 French exactly the same with the English : the only 
 difference between them being, that, in the French 
 similar sounds, the tongue does not touch the roof of 
 the mouth, as in pronouncing the English ing, though 
 in other respects it be in a similar position. If, there- 
 fore, a foreigner wants to produce this sound, he haa 
 only to raise the middle of his tongue into a gentle 
 contact with the roof of his mouth in pronouncing anv

 of the nasal vowels, which cotnpleteg the articulation, 
 and in this way the French nasal vowel heard in the 
 word dent, will be converted into the English consonant 
 funded in the syllable dong ; and so on of the rest. 
 
 J. 
 
 This letter has a very different sound in English from 
 what it has in French. In the latter it has a simple 
 sound ; in the former it is the representative of a com- 
 pound sound made of d and an aspirated z. This is a 
 difficult sound to such foreigners as have it not in their 
 several tongues : and to enable them to pronounce it, 
 it is only requisite to desire them to form the letter d 
 with a vowel before it, as ed ; keeping the tongue in the 
 game position that it has when that letter is so formed ; 
 then let them try to unite it to the French j, which is 
 exactly the same sound with what I have called the 
 aspirated z or zh, and the compound sound of edzh, or 
 dzha, will be produced. But as foreigners are equally 
 strangers to the combination of the two letters zh, and 
 would therefore not know what sound belonged to it, it 
 will be proper to substitute the French^ in the room of 
 zh in spelling all words containing that sound, as thus, 
 edje ; and in order to begin a syllable with that sound, 
 which is more difficult than to conclude with it, let 
 them place the tongue in the position of sounding ed, 
 keeping it in that position, and then the first sound 
 uttered must necessarily be that of d, which connected 
 with the subsequent j followed by a vowel, of course 
 must form the compound to be found in the words 
 
 <&'oy (joy), "^jo^e (Joi^^)- . , 
 
 The sound of this letter has been sometimes marked 
 m the Dictionary by a combination of the letters dzh ; 
 and sometimes by the letterj. But if a foreigner will 
 consider the zh as equivalent to the French j, the 
 right pronunciation will soon become familiar to him. 
 
 Ch. 
 
 The sound annexed to this combination of letters is 
 different in the English from what it is in the French : 
 in the former it is a compound, in the latter a simple 
 sound; in the same way as that of j, just described. 
 The sound of the French ch is exactly the same as the 
 English sh ; and, in order to facilitate the pronuncia- 
 tion of our compoond ch, it will be only necessary to 
 follow the same method as has been above proposed 
 with regard to the letter j ; with this difference, that a 
 t instead of a d is to be formed in the manner there 
 described, preceding the sound of the French ch, as, etch. 
 It is true, we have some words in our tongue where 
 the ch is preceded by a t, producing the same indivi- 
 dual sound, as in the words itch, stitch, which the 
 French never fail to pronounce properly, being guided 
 to it by seeing the letter t placed before the ch ; but 
 to other words, of exactly the same sound, though 
 differently spelt, by the omission of the t, as rich, which, 
 they always annex their own simple sound of ch. So 
 that here is a plain simple rule to guide foreigners in 
 the right pronunciation of the English ch, which is, by 
 always supposing combined letters preceded by a t ; 
 thus, in the words cheese, charm, let them suppose them 
 spelt tcheese, tcharm ; and if they find any difficulty at 
 first in uniting those sounds at the beginning of words, 
 on account of the eye's not being accustomed to such a 
 combination of those letters, let them do as was before 
 directed with regard to j ; let them begin with placing 
 the organs in the position of sounding t, which will be 
 done by placing a vowel before it, as et ; the t being 
 thus formed, let them keep the tongue in that position : 
 the sound of t must necessarily be the first uttered on 
 changing that position, and will readily coalesce with 
 the following sound of ch. 
 
 This compound sound, as above described, is what 
 uniformly prevails in all native English words ; but 
 there are some few derived from the French which re- 
 tain their primitive pronunciation, such as chagrin, 
 champaign, chevalier, &c. ; and some, derived fronj 
 the Greek, take the sound of k, as chaos, chorus : bu 
 the number of these is but small, easily learned by use 
 jsd the difference is properly marked in the Dictionary 
 
 Sh. 
 
 This is a combination of letters not to be four.d in (he 
 French language, and therefore foreigners know not 
 what sound to give it ; but the usual way is to pro- 
 nounce it like a simple s. Thus : for shal, they say 
 sal; for shame, same, &c. But, to attain the right 
 sound, it will be only necessary to inform them, that 
 the English sh has uniformly the same sound as the 
 French ch, in the words charite, chere : thus, if thej 
 supppose the words shall and shame, above-mentioned, 
 to be written, chaU and chame, they will pronounce them 
 properly. 
 
 Diphthongs. 
 
 Having said all that is necessary of the vowels ana 
 consonants, the next article to be considered is that o . 
 the diphthongs. It is in these that the chief difference 
 between the English and French tongues consists, as 
 there are many diphthongs in the former not to be found 
 in the latter. 
 
 Of the Diphthongs i and u. 
 
 These two have hitherto always passed for simpla 
 sounds, because Ihey are for the most part marked by 
 single letters as above : their sounds are marked in the 
 scheme of the vowels, by the words fight, blue ; and 
 these are the sounds given to those vowels in repeating 
 the alphabet. But in reality they are perfect diph- 
 thongs, and therefore foreigners can never attain their 
 right pronunciation, till they are first made acquainted 
 with the simple sounds whereof they are composed. 
 The diphthong i is a compound of the fullest and slen- 
 derest of our vowels h and ^ ; the first made by the 
 largest, and the last by the smallest aperture of the 
 mouth. If we attend to the process in forming this 
 sound, we shall find that the mouth is first opened to 
 the same degree of aperture, and is in the same posi- 
 tion as if it were going to pronounce &., but before tho 
 voice can get a passage through the lips the under jaw 
 IS drawn near to the upper, in the same position as 
 when the vowel d is formed ; and thus the full sound, 
 checked by the slender one, and coalescing with it, 
 produces a third sound different from both, which is the 
 diphthong i. There is a sound in the French somewhat 
 resembling our i, to be found in such words as vin, Jin ; 
 but that there is a difference between them, will be im- 
 mediately perceptible by sounding after them our 
 words, as vin, wine — -fan, fine i and the difference con- 
 sists in this, that their diphthong is formed of the second 
 sound of a, S. and 5, and ours of the first, 4 d ; so that, in 
 order to produce that sound, you are to desire a fo- 
 reigner to open his mouth as wide as if he were going 
 to pronounce i, and meant to sound that vowel ; but on 
 the first effort of the voice for that purpose, to check its 
 progress by a sudden motion of the under jaw towards 
 the upper, till the two sounds coalesce, and then in- 
 stantly to stop all further effusion of voice. Thus, as 
 the sound of a is not completed, nor the sound of k con- 
 tinued, there results from the union of the two a third 
 sound or diphthong, which has no resemblance to either 
 and yet is a compound of both. 
 
 The diphthong u is compounded of the sound e and b, 
 the former so rapidly uttered, and falling so quickly 
 into the sound 6, that its own power is not perceived, 
 while that of 6, being a little dwelt upon, is distinctly 
 heard. There is a sound in the French that somewhat 
 resembles this, to be found in the words dieu, mieux 
 but the differeiivie will be immediately perceived bv 
 sounding after them our words dew, mew ; and it con- 
 sists in this, that their diphthong terminates in the 
 French vowel eu, a sound which we have not in our 
 tongue, and is found therefore very hard to be formed by 
 English organs ; and ours termiriates in 6, the same as 
 the French ou. To form it properly, therefore, a fo- 
 reigner is to be told that it is composed of the sounds S 
 and 5, the first not completed, but rapidly running into 
 the latter, which he is to consider as the same sound 
 with the French ou ; our pronoun you is an exact re- 
 presentation to a French eye o our diphthong u.

 Of the Diphthong oi, or oy. 
 
 This diphthong, which is sometimes spelt with an i, 
 and sometimes with a y, is formed by a union of the 
 same vowels as that of i : that is k e, with this difference, 
 that the first vowel k being dwelt upon, is distinctly 
 heard before its sound is changed by'its junction with 
 the latter vowel 5, as in the words noise, akes, boys, 
 biSz, n^-ez, nk&z, hk-^z, hkiz. 
 
 To form this diphthong, it is necessary to pronounce 
 the full sound of k, dwelling a little upon it before the 
 sound is intercepted by the motion of the under jaw, to 
 the position of forming the slender sound 5, and then 
 the voice is instantly to cease. This diphthong differs 
 from that of i only in this, that the first vowel k is dis- 
 tinctly heard before it unites with the latter vowel i. 
 
 Of the Diphthong on, or ow. 
 
 This diphthong, though differently marked, like the 
 foregoing one, sometimes by ou, and sometimes by ow, 
 has always the same sound, and is composed of the 
 vowels k and 5 ; the organs being at first in the position 
 of sounding k, but before that sound is perfected, by a 
 motion of the under jaw and lips to the position of 
 sounding 6, the first sound A, is checked and blended 
 with the latter 6, from which results the diphthong ou 
 or ow, as in thou, now, (thkbn, nidw. ) 
 
 All the other diphthongs of our tongue are formed by 
 the short sounds of 6 and S, marked by the characters w 
 and y, preceding other vowels, and combining with 
 them in the same syllable ; as thus 
 
 to or short o.

 To Instruct foreigners in the true pi^wunciation ol 
 these, it will be only necessary to inform uiem that our 
 w answers in sound and power to the French ou, when 
 it forms a diphthong. As, for instance, our pronoun we 
 is individually the same sound as their affirmative oui : 
 and the mistake which they constantly commit of sound- 
 ing that letter like a v, is owing to their not being in- 
 formed of the true nature of that letter, and taking up 
 their idea of it from the printed character, wherein two 
 interwoven vees (w) are exhibited to view; but if in 
 all diphthongs commencing with that letter, they will 
 place their lips in the position of forming the French ou, 
 they cannot fail of producing the proper sound. In like 
 manner, all diphthongs formed by y, are to be considered 
 as commencing with the sound given to that character 
 in the French, which is the same with their vowel i. 
 
 All who make themselves masters of the few direc- 
 tions and rules given above, will be enabled to produce at 
 sight the right pronunciation of every word which they 
 shall look for in the Dictionary. 
 
 The accent is placed throughout over the letter on 
 which it is laid m pronunciation ; over the vowel or 
 diphthong, when the stress of the voice is on the vowel ; 
 over the consonant when it is on that. As thus : —

 The syllables of the words are divided according to 
 the mode of pronouncing them ; that is, all letters 
 which are united in utterance in the sajne syllable, are 
 kept together also in writing, and separated from 
 the rest ; which certainly is the natural division, though 
 it be contrary to the fantastic mode followed in our 
 tpelllng-books and grammars. 
 
RULES 
 
 TO BE 
 
 OBSERVED BY THE NATIVES OF IRELAND AND WALES, 
 
 IN ORDER TO ATTAIN A JUST PIONUNCIATION OF ENGLISH. 
 
 Extracted from Mr. Sheridan's Works, with some Alterations, by J. Knowles.

 The chief mistakes made by the Irish in pronouncing 
 English, lie for the most part in the sounds of the two 
 first vowels, a and e ; the former being generally 
 sounded k by the Irish, as in the word bir, in most 
 words where it is pronounced d, as in day, by the Eng- 
 lish. Thus, the Irish say, patron, mdtron, the vowel 
 3. having the same sound as in the word father ; while 
 the English pronounce them as if written, paytron, 
 maytron. The following rule, strictly attended to, will 
 rectify this mistake throughout the whole language. 
 
 When the vowel a finishes a syllable, and has th<i ac- 
 cent on it, it is invariably pronounced d [day] by the 
 English. To this rule there are but three exceptions iti 
 the whole language, to be found in the words father, 
 papi, mamd. The Irish may think also the word 
 rather an exception, as well as father ; and so it would 
 appear in their manner of pronouncing it, rd-ther, 
 laying the accent on the vowel a : but in the English 
 pronunciation, the consonant th is taken into the first 
 syllable ; as thus, rath'er, which makes the difference. 
 
 Whenever a consonant follows the vowel a in the 
 same syllable, and the accent is on the consonant, the 
 vowel a has always its second sound, as hat', min' ; as 
 also the same sound lengthened when it precedes the 
 letter r, as fa'r, bi'r, though the accent be on the 
 vowel ; as likewise when it precedes hn, as ba'lm, 
 psa'lm. The Irish, ignorant of this latter exception, 
 pronounce all words of that structure as if they were 
 written bawm, psdwm, quawm, cawm, &c. In the first 
 sound of a, marked by difl'erent combinations of vowels, 
 or consonants, such as au in Paul ; aw, in law ; all, 
 in call ; aid, in bald ; alk, in talk, &c. the Irish make 
 no mistake, except in that of Im, as before mentioned. 
 
 The second vowel e is, for the most part, sounded ee 
 by the English, when the accent is upon it ; whilst the 
 Irish in most words give it the sound of second 4, as in 
 hate. This gound of e [ee] is marked by different com- 
 binations of vowels, such as ea, ei, e final mute, ee, and 
 ie. In the two last combinations of ee and ie, the Irish 
 never mistake ; such as meet, seem, field, believe, Ac; 
 but in all others, they almost universally change the 
 sound of 6 into k. Thus, in the combination ea, they 
 pronounce the words tea, sea, please, as if they were 
 spelt tay, say, plays ; instead of tee, see, pleese. The 
 English constantly give this sound to ea, whenever the 
 accent is on the e, except in the following words, great, 
 a pear, a bear, to bear, to forbear, to swear, to tear, 
 to wear. In all which the e is sounded as in there, 
 thdre. For want of knowing these exceptions, the 
 gentlemen of Ireland, after some time of residence in 
 London, are apt to fall into the general rule, and pro- 
 nounce these words as if spelt greet, beer, sweer. Sec 
 
 Ei is always sounded ee by the English, and as & by 
 the Irish ; thus, the words deceit, receive, are pro- 
 nounced by them as if written desnte, resave. Ei is 
 always sounded ee, except when a g follows it, as in the 
 words, reign, feign, deign, &c. ; as also in the words, 
 rein (of a bridle), rein deer, vein, drein, veil, heir, 
 which are pronounced like rain, vain, drain, vail, air. 
 
 The final mute e makes the preceding e in the same 
 syllable, when accented, have the sound of ee, as in the 
 words supreme, sincere, replete. This rule is almost 
 universally broken through by the Irish, who pronounce 
 all such words as if written suprdme, sinsdre, repldte, 
 &e. There are but two exceptions to this rule in the 
 English pronunciation, which are the words, there, 
 where, &c. 
 
 on', was', at' — good'^w, o — y, e, or i — ^i, u. 
 
 In the way of marking this sound, e, by a double e, a!< 
 thus, ee, as the Irish never make any mistakes, the best 
 method for all who want to acquire the right pronun- 
 ciation of these several combinations, is to suppose that 
 ea, ei, and e, attended by a final mute e, are all spelt 
 with a double e, or ee. 
 
 Ey is always sounded like S, by the English, when the 
 accent is upon it ; as in the words prey, convey, pro- 
 nounced pray, convay. To this there are but two ex- 
 ceptions, in the words key and ley, sounded kee, lee. 
 The Irish, in attempting to pronounce like the English, 
 often give the same sound to ey, as usually belongs to 
 ei : thus, for prey, convey, they say pree, convee. 
 
 A strict observation of these few rules, with a duo 
 attention to the vei y few exceptions enumerated above, 
 will enable the well-educated natives of Ireland to pro- 
 nounce their words exactly in the same way as the more 
 polished part of the inhabitants of England do, so far as 
 the vowels are concerned. The diphthongs they com- 
 mit no fault in, except in the sound of r ; which has 
 been already taken notice of in the Grammar. Where 
 likewise the only diflerence in pronouncing any of the 
 consonants has been pointed out ; which is the thick- 
 ening the sounds of d and t, in certain situations ; and 
 an easy method proposed of correcting this habit. 
 
 In order to complete the whole, I shall now give a 
 list of such detached words, that do not come under any 
 of the above rules, as are pronounced differently in Ire- 
 land from what they are in England.

 These, after the closest attention, are all the words 
 not included in the rules before laid down, that I have 
 been able to collect, in which the well-educated natives 
 of Ireland differ from those of England. 
 
 With regard to the natives of Scotland — as their 
 dialect differs more, and in a great number of points, 
 from the English, than that of any others who speak 
 that language, it will require a greater number of rules, 
 and more pains to correct it. The most material dif- 
 ference in point of pronunciation, and which pervades 
 dieir whole speech, is that of always laying the accent 
 «n the vowel, in words where it ought to be on the con- 
 sonant. This has been already taken notice of in the 
 Grammar, and the method of curing that habit pointed 
 out. In this article, therefore, they should chiefly exer- 
 cise themselves, till they attain a facility in accenting 
 \he consonants, and givmg their true sounds to the pre- 
 ceding vowels, according to the rule there laid down ; 
 fcr it 13 in this that the chief difference between the 
 Scotch and English pronunciation consists. With re- 
 gard to intonation, indeed, or what is commonly called 
 the Scotch accent, they totally differ from the English ; 
 of which I have treated at large in my Lectures on the 
 Ari of Reading. But in this, written rules can be of 
 ittle use, except when assisted by the living voice ; and 
 therefore the aid of masters, who shall join example to 
 precept, is here required. If the same ardour continues 
 for obtaining a just and polished delivery, which I found 
 preva.A among the young gentlemen of Scotland, when 
 1 delivered my Course of Lectures at Edinburgh, they 
 will no-v have it in their power to compass the point 
 upon certain grounds, chiefly by their own labour and 
 application. Nor will they long be without due assist- 
 ance, where that is reauisite, upon proper encourage- 
 ment ; for as there could be no hopes of having skilful 
 masters to teach this art, without first having a proper 
 method of instruction ; so that method being now laid 
 open, will no doubt induce numbers to apply themselves 
 to the mastery of it, in order to become preceptors in 
 that most useful and ornamental of all arts. 
 
 Nor are there wanting examples to stimulate thosa 
 
 who are in pursuit of this object, and to insure success 
 to their endeavours. There was a gentleman of that 
 country, in London, in a high oflSce of the law, who 
 did not leave Scotland till after he had been some 
 years advanced in manhood ; and yet, after having 
 received instruction for a few months only, according 
 to the method laid dovim in this work, his speech was 
 not to be distinguished from that of the most polished 
 natives of England, both in point of pronunciation and 
 intonation ; and he became at that day the best pat- 
 tern to be followed with regard to both, whether in the 
 House of Commons, or at the bar. 
 
 And yet there was a more extraordinary instance 
 which I met with at Edinburgh, in a Lord* of Session, 
 who, though he had never been out of Scotland, yet 
 merely by his own pains, without rule or method, only 
 conversing much with such Englishmen as happened to 
 be there, and reading regularly with some of the prin- 
 cipal actors, arrived even at an accuracy of pronuncia- 
 tion, and had not the least tincture of the Scottish 
 intonation. 
 
 I shall now say a few words to the inhabitants of 
 Wales; in order to show how easily they might get 
 rid of their provincial dialect. 
 
 The peculiarity of the Welsh pronunciation arises 
 chiefly from their constantly substituting the three pure 
 mutes, in the room of the three impure ; and the three 
 aspirated semivowels, in the place of the three vocal. 
 Thus, instead of 6, they use p ; for p, they use k, or hard 
 c ; and for d, they employ t. For blood, they say plut ; 
 for God, they say Cot ; and for dear, tear. In like 
 manner, in the use of the semivowels, they substitute/ 
 in the place of » ; » in the place of z ; eth in the room 
 of eth ; and esh in that of ezh. Thus, instead of virtue 
 and vice, they say, firtue and fice ; instead of zeal and 
 praise, they say, seal praisse ; instead of these and those, 
 thesse and ffiosse ; instead of azure, osier, they say, 
 ashur, oshur. Thus, there are no less than seven of our 
 consonants which the Welsh never pronounce at all. 
 Now, if the difference in the manner of formation be- 
 tween these seven consonants and their seven corre- 
 spondent ones, were pointed out to them, in the way 
 described in the grammar, they might in a short time 
 be taught the perfect use of them. 
 
 The people of Somersetshire pronounce the semi- 
 vowels m a way directly opposite to that of the Welsh, 
 For whereas the Welsh change the vocal into the aspi- 
 rate, they of Somersetshire change the aspirate into the 
 vocsJ. For father, they say, vather ; for Somersetshire, 
 Zomerzetshire ; for Qiin, thin. So that their methoo 
 f)f cure, is to take the direct opposite course to that oi 
 the 'Welsh.

 OF THE 
 
 PRINCIPLES ON WHICH HUMAN SPEECH IS FOUNDED. 
 
 Before 1 proceed to give a complete developement 
 •f the nature, the number, and the properties of all the 
 nimple and compound sounds of the English language, 
 I think it necessary to give the following philosophical 
 and practical statement of the fundamental principles of 
 human speech, as applicable to all languages. 
 
 OF HUMAN SPEECH. 
 
 SECTION I 
 
 '' The povyer of speech,'' that is, of articulate speech, 
 as the medium of human thoughts, " is a faculty pecu- 
 liar to man ; and was bestowed on him, by his benefi- 
 cent Creator, for the greatest and most excellent uses ; 
 but, alas ! how often do we pervert it to the worst of 
 purposes?" — Louth's Grammar, p. 17. 
 
 " Thou man alone canst speak. Wonder at thy glo- 
 rious prerogative, and pay to Him who gave it mee 
 rational and welcome praise ; teaching thy children 
 wisdom — instructing the offspring of thy loins in piety." 
 —Economy of Human Life. 
 
 In the following reflections and attempts at an accu- 
 rate exposition of the above subject, the origin, nature, 
 and powers of vocal speech are anatomically and philo- 
 sophically considered, with respect to all languages, and 
 practically applied to the English language, in a deve- 
 lopement and examination of all its simple and compound 
 articulations, vowels, consonants, and diphthongs — their 
 nature, formation, properties, and number, as charac- 
 teristically different from each other, and as forming 
 syllables and words. 
 
 Of the Mind, Intellect, or Understanding ; or, in 
 other words, of the Brain of Man, and its various 
 Passive and Active Powers, as the Sources of Speech 
 or Language. 
 
 By a physical knowledge of the human mind, philo- 
 sophers, metaphysicians, and logicians mean a know- 
 ledge of its essence : that is, a knowledge of the parti- 
 cular motions of the animal spirits, as proceeding from 
 the heart and operating on the brain, on which thinking 
 depends ; and, whether the formation of our ideas 
 depends upon matter or not. 
 
 Now, this is a knowledge possessed only by the Cre- 
 ator, which will, most probably, be for ever hidden from 
 man, in this his earthly state of existence. The Su- 
 preme Being, however, having, in his wisdom and 
 goodness, created man not only as a sentient, but, a 
 thinking being, and a free agent, endowed him also with 
 the powers of consciousness, reflection, and reasoning, 
 to enable him to distinguish right from wrong, in 
 thinking, speaking, and acting, under the pure guidance 
 •f his revealed will, word, and ordinances ; and not 
 under the headstrong influence of his own sinfui, cor- 
 rupt, and selfish imaginations, — ^which have become so 
 through the disobedience of our first parents, and their 
 consequent fall from the original purity of heart and 
 mind with which God endowed them. 
 
 But, a knowledge of the mere animal nature, sub- 
 Stance, and susceptibilities of the brain of man, the 
 perceptions and powers of which, under the constant 
 influence of his will, his desires, and passions, and the 
 emotions of his heart, constitute what is called his 
 mind ; a knowledge also that the brain receives the first 
 impressions, called ideas, from all the external objects 
 Hut present themselves to his senses, and an additional 
 / 
 
 knowledge that, tTie ideas so received operate en one 
 another, and are commingled so as to produce a second 
 set of ideas, which, together with the first, form, by the 
 help of words, as their si'^-VS, what is called language ; 
 all these have been, with g.'eat approaches to accuracy, 
 ascertained and developed by aiip.toniists, logicians, phi- 
 losophers, and grammarians, as the only apparent sources 
 on which thinking, and the formation of man's ideas 
 depend ; and as the apparent boundaries beyond which 
 his Creator has ordained he should not pass in his re- 
 searches to discover any other co-existing causes on 
 which they may also partly depend. 
 
 The orthoepist, or grammarian, is not called upon to 
 describe the texture of the brain, or the cavities which 
 contain it, but simply to state, that, anatomists say the 
 brain of man is more voluminous than that of almost 
 every other animal, and that the quantity or dimen- 
 sions of it are proportioned to the size of the head, and 
 generally in direct proportion to the capacity or com- 
 prehensiveness of the mind, or understanding ; and that, 
 a man eminently distinguished for the extent and power 
 of his mental faculties is almost invariably found to havo 
 a large head. From these discoveries and observations 
 of anatomists, however accurate they may be, it is not 
 to be taken for a fact, that every man having a large 
 head is necessarily a man of superior mental capacity, 
 genius, or talents in one way or another ; for, there are 
 many causes of an augmentation of the size of the head, 
 beside the size or quantity of the brain ; and it may be 
 observed here, that, the only way of estimating the vo 
 lume of the brain in any living person is, to measure the 
 dimensions of the skull. 
 
 God has been pleased, in his mercy and goodness, to 
 endow many of his other creatures beside man with a 
 social disposition ; and all with a natural language of 
 tones, looks, and gestures, suited to their several wants 
 and feelings, and to their different spheres of action 
 and utility. 
 
 But, man, whom he ordained to have dominion over 
 all the other creatures, and to walk erect upon the 
 earth, and exercise his power in mercy over them all, 
 he not only endowed with a social disposition, and a na- 
 tural language of tones, looks, and gestures, but, also, 
 with the power of forming an artificial language, to be 
 used, not merely as the common means of social union, 
 and moral happiness, in his intercourse with his fellow 
 men, but, as the great instrument by the use of which 
 he was to hold communion with his Creator, by prayer 
 and thanksgiving ; and also draw forth, cultivate, and 
 bring into action, all the nobler powers of his nature, 
 and the pure emotions of his heart, and keep in sub- 
 jection to these, all the merely animal feelings, appe- 
 tites, and passions, which he possesses in common with 
 the brutes. Man, therefore, has his mouth, and the 
 various organs connected with it, so fashioned by his 
 Creator as to render them capable of forming, with the 
 greatest nicety of distinction, a great variety of articu- 
 late sounds, which constitute spoken language, of which 
 written language is the type. 
 
 But, the peculiar fitness of man's organs to form a 
 certain number and variety of articulate sounds was not 
 of itself sufllicient to produce language, for, parrots anc 
 other birds have been taught to utter articulate sounds 
 and whole sentences, distinctly enough, though utterly 
 debarred, by the will of their Divine Creator, from e»- 
 
EXPOSITION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SPEECH. 
 
 CToaching on the prerogative of man, by attaching 
 meaning to them ; so true it is, as Buffon says, that 
 " no disposition" (rather formation), " of matter, but 
 that which the Creator has willed, can give mind." 
 
 To the complete formation of language, it was there- 
 fore necessary that man should be able to use certain ar- 
 ticulate sounds, called words, agreed upon by a kind of 
 tacit compact, the result of imitation in different coun- 
 tries, as signs of all the perceptions received into 
 his mind; that is, received by his brain, from all 
 external objects, through the medium of his five 
 senses, which are seeing, hearing, tasting, feeling, and 
 smelling. 
 
 Under these fundamental sources of spoken language, 
 the first process was, to call each impression made on 
 the brain by the external objects which the senses per- 
 ceive, an idea, thought, or notion. The second, to call 
 all the articulate sounds, whether simple or compound, 
 which are made use of in speaking, or, by their marks 
 In writing, as the signs of those thoughts, ideas, or no- 
 tions, words ; as being the media, the instruments, 
 by which whatever passes in the heart and mind of one 
 man, is conveyed to the hearts and minds of his fellow 
 men, accompanied by tones, looks, and gestures, as ex- 
 pressive of the feelings, emotions, and passions, which 
 are generated by those ideas. 
 
 The second process necessary to the construction of 
 language was, that words should be made use of not 
 only as signs of the impressions which the mind receives 
 from all external objects through the medium of the 
 senses, called in grammar, ideas, &c. ; but also, that, 
 they should be made use of as signs of the ideas gene- 
 rated in the mind or brain itself, by the various opera- 
 tions of those first ideas upon one another, in the acts 
 which are called thinking, recollecting, willing, reason- 
 ing, &c. ; by which operation, another class of ideas are 
 generated or formed, called ideas of reflection ; so that 
 sensation and reilection are the only sources of all our 
 thoughts or ideas. 
 
 In the third place, neither were the uses of words to 
 stand as symbols of single thoughts, derived externally 
 from the senses ; or formed internally by the operations 
 of those first thoughts upon one another, sufficient to 
 make words as extensively useful as they ought to be ; 
 for, it is not enough for the perfection of language that 
 words can be made use of as the signs of single thoughts ; 
 they must be made use of as comprehending under one 
 complex, or general term, several individual ideas of 
 persons, places, and things, &c. of the same genus, or 
 species ; for, the multiplication of words, each of which 
 was to be used as the sign or name of only one place, 
 person, or thing, action, emotion, passion, event, &c. 
 spoken of, would have perplexed the use of words, and 
 been found an impossible attempt. 
 
 To remedy, therefore, this inconvenience, language, 
 whether spoken or written, had yet a farther improve- 
 ment to make, in the use and adoption of general, or 
 complex terms ; whereby one word is used to mark, or 
 include under it, as a common name, a number, or class, 
 or multitude of particular persons, things, places, &c. ; 
 that is, of individual existences. This necessary, and 
 advantageous use of words, is obtained by using one word 
 as the sign or name of a whole class or species of per- 
 sons, places, things, &c. ; as man, cow, palace, arti- 
 choke, rose ; or, as the sign or name of several species 
 or classes, as animal, building, vegetable, flower, &c., 
 such words being properly called complex, or general 
 terms ; for, as Home Tooke observes on Mr. Locke's 
 use of the term "complex idea," throughout his " Essay 
 on the Human Understanding," there is no such thing 
 in nature as a complex idea. fc 
 
 Again, for the sake of brevity or despatch in dis- 
 course, language required still farther improvements. 
 It required that one word should be made use of fre- 
 quently to convey the meaning of several dissimilar 
 ideas, as constitutmg a whole phrase or sentence, which 
 had been expressed in a preceding part of a discourse, 
 or, 01 several sentences or paragraphs, &c. For exam- 
 ples of all these methods used for the sake of despatch, 
 the curious reader is rsferred to Mr. Locke's "Essay 
 on the Human Understanding," and to Home Tooke's 
 ' Diversions of Purley." 
 
 These few preliminary ooservations lead us to a prac- 
 
 tical consideration of the general uses of speech, and a 
 more particular elucidation of the principal powers and 
 actions of the brain, or mind, and exertions of the will, 
 which are employed in the formation of language. 
 
 SECTION 11. 
 
 OF THE POWERS, PASSIVE AND ACTIVE, OF THE HUMAN 
 BRAIN, AND THE IMPRESSIONS MADE ON IT, WHICH 
 ALTOGETHER FORM WHAT IS CALLED THE MIND, IN- 
 TELLECT, OR UNDERSTANDING. 
 
 Independently of considering man as a social, reli- 
 gious, and moral being, accountable to his Maker for 
 the use which he makes of all the wonderful faculties 
 and privileges with which he has endowed him, one of 
 the most remarkable distinctions between s^him and the 
 brute species is, that, whilst all the faculties of brutes 
 grow up with them without any assistance from man, 
 all the nobler faculties of man require pains to unfold, 
 direct, and carry them to perfection ; for, though formed 
 for social life, he would neither be capable of recognizing 
 the proper subjects of discourse, nor of discoursing con- 
 sistently, nor to any distinct purpose, if he were not en- 
 dowed, in a pre-eminent degree, with many faculties 
 which brutes either want entirely, or possess only in a 
 very limited degree. 
 
 Of these faculties the following are the principal : — 
 
 First, sensation ; or, a capability in the brain of re- 
 ceiving, through the medium of the senses, a distinct., 
 though not always an indelible impression, from every 
 person, place, or thing, action, quality, essence, motion, 
 &c. &c. , that can in any way become an object of the 
 senses ; which povrer is called perception, or sensation, 
 the brain of man, when he is born, being, like a sheet 
 of white paper, void of any impressions ; that is, he is 
 not born with innate impressions, innate ideas of per- 
 sons, places, or things of any kind ; sensation, there- 
 fore, is our first observation employed about external 
 perceptible things, objects, &c. ; and we receive the 
 ideas of sensation from the impressions made on our 
 organs of sense by external sensible objects ; as a man, 
 a tall man, a flower, a yellow flower, a stone, a hard 
 stone, a cry, aloud cry, an apple, a sour apple, a weed, 
 an offensive weed, &c. Sensation is thus the first 
 source or inlet of our ideas ; of all knowledge, merely 
 human. 
 
 Secondly, reflection ; which is our observation exer- 
 cised about the internal operation of our ideas, passive 
 and active ; is the second power of the brain or mind. 
 It is the power which enables us to view, over aiid over 
 again, the first impressions made on the brain by all 
 external objects, through the medium of the senses, and 
 examine them as we would the features of our face in a 
 glass ; and combine and exercise them so as, out of 
 their various operations, to form new internal ideas, 
 which, on account of their being so formed, are called 
 ideas of reflection ; so that, the whole stock of our ideas 
 become ranked under the two general heads, or classes, 
 of ideas of sensation, and ideas of reflection. 
 
 " We receive the ideas of reflection," says Locke, " from 
 the operations of our ideas in thinking, which operations, 
 when the mind perceives them, furnishes those ideas of 
 reflection. Examples of reflection are the operations 
 of doubting, reasoning, willing." Reflection is called 
 by Locke an internal sense, from its resemblance in its 
 powers to sensation ; for, as sensation imparts ideas to 
 the brain, from the impressions made on the senses by 
 all external objects ; reflection also generates other 
 ideas, from all the ideas that are impressed on the brain 
 in both these ways. 
 
 From the preceding observations and definitions, we 
 draw the following conclusions ; that sensation, strictly 
 so called, is always employed about external objects ;■ 
 reflection, about internal. 
 
 In any particular instance, a sensation means an im- 
 pression made on some part of the body, and noticed by 
 the brain. In this sense, and in other respects, the 
 brain is passive ; for no man can refuse to perceive 
 ideas of objects presented to him ; nor be ignorant of 
 what he d;*s when he thinks. 
 
 The brain, like a mirror, is forced to receive impres- 
 sions, just as external objects make them ; and like it, 
 cannot refuse to receive, cannot alter, cannot obliterate, 
 
EXPOSITION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SPEECH. 
 
 any impression made on it by any object presented to it, 
 though disease may, as it were, in spite of our wishes to 
 "etain them, totally eflTace some of the impressions 
 j ifMch it has received. 
 
 ! Whatever is perceived in any way, externally, or m- 
 ' temally, is called an object. 
 
 The stock of our ideas is increased by reflection, ex- 
 . perience, and composition. Perception is frequently 
 ' called thinking ; but, thinking is not a proper term for 
 this faculty ; because, thinking implies action ; but, in 
 perception the brain is passive. 
 j From various causes, the brain, or mind, does not 
 ; always notice the impressions made on the senses by 
 I external objects ; hence, two things are necessary to the 
 ' existence of any idea in the mind ; these are sensation 
 • and perception ; for, perception is the inlet to all our 
 i knowledge ; and it is absolutely necessary to perception 
 : that the brain should take notice of all the impressions 
 ' made on the senses by all external objects. 
 I Memory, or retention, is the third power of the brain, 
 
 or mind ; and, consists in storing up, and retaining in the 
 I mind, the simple ideas of sensation and reflection ; and 
 i the complex, or general terms, which are the signs for 
 whole classes of individual ideas, each bearing some 
 common resemblance to all the rest. Locke calls me- 
 mory the storehouse of the mind, the storehouse of our 
 ideas ; thus attaching to it a passive, and an active sig- 
 nification. He says there are two kinds of retention, 
 contemplation and memory. The former, he says, is 
 keeping an idea for some time actually in view. The 
 latter is, the power of reviving in the mind ideas that 
 had disappeared, after having been imprinted on it ; 
 but, this latter power of retention, or memory, ought 
 rather to be called recollection, or reminiscence. 
 
 Memory depends very much on the constitution of 
 our bodies. Its business is to furnish to the mind dor- 
 mant ideas when o<;casion requires. 
 
 Memory differs from simple perception by the addi- 
 tional perception annexed to ideas of memory; viz., 
 that we had them before. 
 
 Mr. Locke, from whose Essay the greater part of 
 these definitions are taken, calls memory a second jier- 
 cej)tion, from the notice which it takes of ideas, and 
 says that, it is sometimes active, and sometimes passive ; 
 active, when it sets itself to work in searching out an 
 idea, which employment he calls turning, as it were, 
 the eye of the soul on its ideas ; passive, when ideas, of 
 their own accord, appear in the mind. 
 
 Recollection, or reminiscence, is the fourth power of 
 the brain, or mind, and is the power of recalling, or 
 bringing back, or perhaps more properly bringing out 
 from the storehouse of the brain, after they had been used 
 and laid by, and forgotten for a time, impressions which 
 it had received some time before. 
 
 Discerning, is the fifth faculty of the brain, or mind, 
 and is the power of distinguishing between ideas in the 
 mind. It prevents confusion among our ideas, and on 
 it depend the evidence and certainty of a great many 
 general propositions. The mind gets the idea of the 
 operation of discerning by reflection. 
 
 Exactness of judgment, and clearness of reasoning, are 
 obtained by clearness of discerning. 
 
 Comparing ideas with one another, says Locke, is 
 another faculty of the mind ; and the ideas that de- 
 pend on this faculty are all comprehended under rela- 
 . tion. This power, says he, extends only to general 
 propositions, used in abstract reasonings. He does not 
 mention this power as one of the four acts which con- 
 stitute the power called reason, though the words which 
 he uses in marking its force ; viz., that "it extends 
 only to general propositions," sufficiently denote that it 
 does not apply to mere simple ideas of sensation and 
 reflection, and to complex or general terms, of which 
 only he has treated in his Essay. I have, therefore, 
 included comparison under the term reason, as one of 
 the four exercises which constitute this faculty. 
 
 Reason is the sixth power of the brain or mind. It 
 consists in examining, arranging, combining, and com- 
 paring our ideas of persons, places, and things of all 
 kinds, as presented to the mind, and impressed upon it 
 by the senses ; and all those which are generated in the 
 mind by reflection on the various operations of those 
 first simple ideas, combined and acting upon one ano- 
 
 ther, and on the mind itself;- and also in arranging, 
 examining, combining, and comparing the complex 
 terms under which many classes of ideas, as expressing 
 genus and species, are included, those complex terms 
 or words, as including several individuals, being called 
 common names ; the lexical, or grammatical distinci.v..s 
 of names being, that every word, or general term, that 
 is a name for several classes, as the word animal, i» 
 called a common name expressing genus ; every word 
 that is the name of only one class, as man, is called a 
 common name expressing species ; and every word 
 whi(;h is the name of only one of a class, as London, is 
 called an individual, or proper name. 
 
 Imagination, or fancy, is the seventh power of the 
 mind, a power arising out of the exercise of reflection, 
 and often unconsciously e-xercised, even in sleep, in a 
 wonderful manner. It consists in forming in our 
 waking hours, pictures, or resemblances of persons, 
 places, and things of iJl kinds already known, when not 
 present to the senses ; or, in creating out of them beings 
 of its own, bearing some strange resemblances to known 
 beings ; of examining their nature, properties, and es- 
 sences ; of reviewing the actions performed, or said to 
 be performed by them ; and of making them pass be- 
 fo-.-o the mind, either in their natural forms, under the 
 guidance of nature, truth, reason, and revelation ; or, in 
 grotesque, disorderly, and discordant forms, uncon- 
 trolled by nature, truth, reason, and revelation, and 
 under the sole guidance of falsehood, the passions, and 
 impiety. 
 
 In a discourse, annexed to the first volume of his 
 " Art of Reading," published in London about the year 
 1774; Mr. Sheridan has given so just and striking a 
 ckscriptiou of this faculty, that I trust my readers will 
 not be displeased at my presenting them with the whole 
 of what he says of it. 
 
 " Man is a compound being. He is the link between 
 spiritual and animal existence ; and partakes of both 
 their natures : but, he has also something peculiar to 
 himself. His intellectual faculties, prove his alliance to 
 a superior class of beings. His sensual apjHitites and 
 passions, show kis affinity to brutes : but, it is in the 
 powers of the imagination, that we are to seek for his 
 own peculiar, or human nature, as distinguishing him 
 from the brute species, on the one hand, and the purely 
 spin tual, on the other. 
 
 " As reason, presides over the intellectual ; passion, ovet 
 the sensitive ; so fancy, governs this part of the human 
 frame. And, of all the faculties belonging to man, this 
 seems to be the most constant in its operations ; and 
 t)ie most extensive in its influence. The power of 
 fancy over ideas of sensation, and reflection, is un- 
 bounded. She creates beings of her own ; and, so 
 great is her influence, that beings of her creation often 
 make deeper impressions on the minds of men, than 
 such as have a real existence. She excites, modifies, 
 and directs the passions of man, at her will. Not only 
 his sports and pleasures, but, even his more serious pur- 
 suits in life, are too frequently under her direction. 
 The history of every nation in the world, will furnish 
 out innumerable instances, of her unbounded in- 
 fluence, over the most important concerns of man, 
 in religion, government, laws, morals, philosophy, 
 and the arts. And her present despotic power, which 
 she exercises over most articles in life, cannot better be 
 described or explained, than by the single term, fashion, 
 
 " Nor shall we wonder at the mighty influence of 
 fancy, when we consider that, this faculty never ceases 
 to act. When the intellect is weary of its labours, and 
 and demands rest ; when the sensual appetites and pas- 
 sions are sated, and dormant ; fancy still continues for 
 ever on the wing ; fM- ever unwearied in her pursuitsi 
 Nay, in sleep itself, when every other faculty is locked 
 up, she asserts her empire over the human mind, and 
 frolics there at large, in all the wild luxuriance of 
 dreams. 
 
 " From this view of her power, we may see that, though 
 she may be an excellent ally to reason ; yet, if she does 
 not acknowledge his superiority ; and is not content 
 with a state of subordination to his orders ; she may 
 either strengthen the animal part of man's nature ; or, 
 set up an independent power of her own, superior to 
 both. Let us consider her in these three lights. As 
 ii2 
 
EXPOSITION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SPEECH. 
 
 aa ally to reason, she partakes of the divine nature of the 
 »oul ; and has the whole store of intellectual ideas at 
 command. She takes her flight with a bold wing 
 through infinity, uncircumscribed by space or time ; 
 reaspn, her chief and guide, all the while aiding and di- 
 recting her course. In this employment, she adds plea- 
 sure to the operations of the intellect, and adorns 
 science, so as always to make it delightful. Thus, she 
 produces a fund of pleasure far superior to those of 
 the sensual kind ; and, of course, obtains an ascendant 
 over the animal faculties ; and draws them after her 
 into a due subordination of the intellectual. Such were 
 the effects produced by the cultivation of the nobler 
 arts, in ancient Greece and Rome. 
 
 " As an ally to the passions, I mean of the sensual kind, 
 she is confined with them to crawl the earth. In this 
 abject state she soon becomes a slave to the passions ; 
 and her exertions in this employment, serve only to 
 degrade men below beasts. This depraved condition of 
 man, has been largely set forth, in the history of the 
 Epicurean sect, in that of the Sybarites, the Capuans, 
 and modern Italy. It is to be feared, too, that examples 
 of this sort, are not wanting in our own country. 
 
 " When she sets up for herself, and acknowledges no 
 superior, her vigorous and wild sallies through unknown 
 regions, without guide or director, are either vain and 
 fruitless, as has been seen in the vast variety of systems 
 in speculative philosophy, which have been produced in 
 different ages and countries in the world, by the wild 
 imaginations of men ; or else, they have been productive 
 of the worst disorders in human affairs, when exerted 
 about the practical duties of life, in religion, politics, 
 and morals. Her efforts here serve only to pervert man 
 from the great end of his being; to rob him of all 
 his animal, as well as rational enjoyments, in order to 
 •ubstitute her own visionary ones in their room, and, 
 often to change his nature, and incline him to that, 
 which we are told belongs to spirits reprobate. Such, 
 we know, have been the effects at all times, of extrava- 
 gant enthusiasm, and wild superstition. 
 
 *' When we look into the history of the world, we 
 shall find that fancy has been but seldom employed in 
 her most glorious sphere, that of assisting human nature 
 in its progress towards perfection ; on the contrary, her 
 chief office has been, to debase, or pervert mankind. 
 The reason of which is, that this part of the human 
 frame, has, in most nations of the world, been wholly 
 neglected and left to chance. There has been care 
 taken in many, even to excess, to improve the intellec- 
 tual powers ; by which, numbers have spent their lives, 
 fruitlessly, in abstract speculations ; and useless, often 
 impenetrable metaphysics. Lawgivers and magistrates 
 have endeavoured to restrain the passions most dan- 
 
 Serous to society, within proper bounds, by penal laws, 
 loralists and philosophers have tried to prevail on men 
 to do their duty, by showing them what it is ; while 
 the imagination left to itself, unguided and unrestrained, 
 laughs at their vain attempts ; and shows itself para- 
 mount to aU the dictates of reason, to all laws, chvine 
 and human." 
 
 Judgment is the eighth power of the mind. It is the 
 power of discerning, by the aid of all the preceding ones, 
 the various relations which subsist between all the pro- 
 positions advanced in the course of a discourse or argu- 
 ment ; their agreement, or disagreement ; their truth, 
 or falsehood, and their exact bearing on the subject of 
 discourse ; and of deducing clear and consistent conclu- 
 sions from the whole. 
 
 These are the principal sources of all our ideas, 
 and the principal powers by which they are regulated 
 and governed ; but, Mr. Locke has enumerated others, 
 —as, composition, enlarging, naming, abstraction, &c. 
 He thus defines composition, as a separate act : — " Com- 
 position consists in putting together the ideas received 
 from sensation and reflection, in order to form complex 
 ideas, and also successions of propositions or sentences. " 
 He should have said, complex, or general terms. 
 
 " Enlarging is, putting ideas of the same kind to- 
 gether ; as, for instance, putting together a number of 
 units to make a dozen. It may be ranked under the 
 head of composition ; but, the composition of ideas in 
 enlarging is not so apparent as in smiple composition ; 
 because it does not extend to tuch a number oi ideas. 
 
 " Naming is the act of making words the signs of our 
 ideas, and is another faculty of the mind." 
 
 Abstraction is another faculty of the mind, which 
 consists in considering ideas as they are in the mind- 
 as separate existences ; and, from the impossibility ol 
 giving every single idea a name peculiar to itself, arises 
 the necessity of including several under oTie head, or 
 name, from some common resemblance which belongs 
 to them all ; and so forming abstract ideas, as they are 
 called, or complex general terms ; such as, being, crea- 
 ture, animal, beast, reptile, man, woman, whiteness, 
 blackness, &c. 
 
 Thus we see, that, though the brain of man is ori- 
 ginally without any ideas — any impressions of outward 
 objects, and that, it gi-adually receives its first class of 
 ideas, called ideas of perception, through the medium of 
 the senses ; yet that, aft*r the mind has been stored 
 with a number of those ideas, it soon begins to exercise 
 them in the various ways before mentioned, so as to ge- 
 nerate within itself a new class of ideas, called ideas of 
 reflection, and to advert in a variety of ways to their 
 individual and collective influence on itself, and on the 
 minds of others ; thus forming, by the help of words, as 
 their signs, a language of ideas. 
 
 From the premises thus laid down, the following con- 
 clusions are drawn : — 
 
 First, — ^that, so far as mere ideas are to be considered, 
 by the mind is to be understood the whole body of ideas 
 with which it is stored by the senses and by reflection, 
 and by all their operations, and by whatever means, and 
 in whatever way those operations are produced. 
 
 Secondly, — that, oral language, as the type of ideas, is 
 the result, partly of man's social affection, and partly of 
 the powers which have been described. 
 
 Thirdly, — that language is the principal medium and 
 instrument by, and through which, all the nobler facul- 
 ties of man are cultivated, and brought to perfection ; 
 and that, those inquiries which have for their object to 
 show how the speech of any nation, or any division 
 thereof, may be naturally resolved into its first consti- 
 tuent simple principles, and all its combined powers 
 developed, must be considered, not only as interesting, 
 but useful and liberal in a high degree. 
 
 SECTION IIL 
 
 Having thus endeavoured to enumerate and describe 
 the principal powers of the brain, or mind, as employed 
 in the formation of speech, I should now pass on to a 
 developement of the rules of grammar in general, or 
 philosophical grammar, and more particularly to the ap- 
 plication of those rules to the English language ; but 
 such a developement forms no part of my present work, 
 as not promised in my prospectus. I shall, therefore, 
 merely make a few observations on orthoepy, the first 
 division of the rules of grammar in general, and give an 
 outline of the particular principles and rules by which 
 the dictionary which I present to the public is distin- 
 guished from every other pronouncing dictionary ; and 
 refer the reader, for further and more particular in- 
 formation as to the simple and compound sounds of the 
 English language, and the true nature of our accent and 
 emphasis, to the matter which precedes Mr. Sheridan's 
 and Mr. Walker's dictionaries ; the whole of whose 
 rules will precede this dictionary, and thus be laid be- 
 fore the public in general, but more particularly teach- 
 ers, in order to enable them to form a just estimate of the 
 respective merits of these gentlemen. 
 
 Of Oral Speech in General. 
 All the rules of grammar are properly classed under 
 five heads: — orthoepy, orthography, etymology, syntax, 
 and prosody ; but, in all modern grammars, orthoepy is 
 entirely omitted ; and, contrary to reason, the natural 
 distinction between speech and writing, and the very 
 derivation of the word orthography, from o^Sos, ortlios, 
 right ; and y^ajnu, grapho, to write ; it is very gravely 
 said, that " Orthography treats of the sound of letters^ 
 syllables, and words, and the right manner of spelling 
 words." Now, this is a manifest mistake, for, it is well 
 known that the ancients, who never made use of an^ 
 term without applying it to a specific use, made use of, 
 and included under the term orthoepy, as its derivatiot

 rom ofiat, right, and »«•»?, epos, a sound, imports, all 
 he rules that are laid down for the pronunciatioa of 
 ietters, syllables, and words. 
 
 Of the Organs which produce the Voice. 
 
 The breath, or air from the lungs, is changed into the 
 Clear, distinct, audible sound called voice, by strong ex- 
 ertions of the lungs, and the whole cavity of the chest, 
 throat, and mouth, and in particular made capable of 
 answering the purposes of speech, by certain organs 
 which lie at the top of the windpipe. 
 
 The trachea, or windpipe, is that tube which conveys 
 nr into and from the lungs, and consists of cartilages, 
 or gristles, so strong as to enable it to stand firm and 
 uncompressed. 
 
 The top of the windpipe consists of four cartilages, 
 which altogether form what is called the larynx ; and the 
 epiglottis forms a fifth cartilage belonging to the wind- 
 pipe. 
 
 The epiglottis is a broad triangular cartilage, very 
 clastic, and like to an artichoke leaf. It has a powerful 
 influence upon speech ; but, its peculiar office is to de- 
 fend the aperture or opening of the windpipe into the 
 mouth ; which opening is called the glottis ; and to pre- 
 vent anything from falling down into the windpipe by 
 this passage. In this respect the epiglottis acts like a 
 Talve, standing directly over the glottis, and flaps down 
 upon it, like the key of a wind instrument, the mo- 
 tion of the tongiie instinctively laying it flat over the 
 glottis, so that it is a perfect guard upon the aperture of 
 Uie trachea. 
 
 The air, or mere breath from the lungs, is formed 
 into voice by the movements of the larynx, and by the 
 vibrating action of the membranes which line it, but, 
 Viore particularly by two very fine semicircular mem- 
 Dranes which are attached to the sides of the upper 
 cartilages of the larynx. The space between these two 
 membranes forms, and is called, the glottis ; and the 
 action, the expansions, and contractions of these mem- 
 branes, are performed with an accuracy and minuteness 
 so exquisitely nice, that, for every change of note in 
 singing, they are contracted, or expanded, in a propor- 
 tioned degree, every contraction, or expansion, producing 
 a different note. The space, or distance between these 
 membranes, is not greater than about the eighth of an 
 inch ; and is, naturally, greater in men, than in boys and 
 women ; in consequence of which, the voices of men are 
 naturally deeper, or graver, than those of women and 
 ooys ; and the voices of women and boys higher, or more 
 acute, than those of men. Touch or press forcibly with 
 your finger the upper part of your windpipe, when you 
 are drawing your breath backwards and forwards, or, 
 when you are articulating any of the aspirated conso- 
 nants, as es, esh, eth, ef, and you will not perceive the 
 slightest movement of the upper part of the windpipe, 
 because that, by an effort of your will, you do not make 
 your breath act upon the larynx and glottis, and you 
 are uttering breath only. Utter any of the vowels, as 
 & in all, i. in art, i in ace, by themselves, or any of the 
 consonants, as eV, ed', eg', and press forcibly the very 
 upper part of your windpipe with your finger whilst ut- 
 ternig those sounds, and you will perceive that your 
 windpipe resists, swells out, and presses strongly against 
 your finger, because that, by an unconscious, merely 
 mechanical effort, you are making the mere air or 
 breath from your lungs act upon the larynx and glottis, 
 which convert it into the clear sound called voice. 
 
 SECTION IV. 
 
 OF THE ORGANS OF SPKECH AND AKTICUIJkTION. 
 
 1 . The voice being produced as we have described, and 
 fitted for the purpose of articulation and speech, is 
 formed into the first simple, or primary articulations, 
 called, in all languages, vowels and consonants ; and into 
 diphthongs, syllables, and words, by the peculiar organs 
 called the organs of speech. 
 
 2. These organs are the uvula, the arched cavity of the 
 mouth, the tongue, the palate, the lips, the teeth, the 
 gums, and the nose, all of which are put in motion, or 
 made to produce different contacts, and acted upon by 
 the voice, in order to produce the different simple and 
 compound sounds of speech. 
 
 3. Of these organs there is only one which requires to 
 be particularly described, and that is, the uvula; which 
 has a very powerful influence, not merely on articulation, 
 but on the voice itself. The uvula is that round soft 
 body, or tongue, which is suspended from the extreme 
 back of the palate, or roof of the mouth, over the glottis, 
 or opening of the wundpipe. It is an extremely deli- 
 cate and flexible organ ; of the existence, or situation o> 
 which, few persons, except surgeons and physicians, 
 can be aware, unless they have happened to discover 
 and remark it, on looking into the mouth of a person 
 complaining of having a sore throat. 
 
 When I held the office of head master of the English 
 department in the Belfast Academical Institution, into 
 which I was unanimously elected, and which I held 
 from the opening of it, in 1814, till the government 
 grant of £1500 a year was withdrawn in 1817, I had a 
 young gentleman under my care as a boarder, whose whole 
 speech was most disagreeably obscured by his having; 
 as it appeared to me, a double uvula, in consequence 
 of which he forced all his words through his nose. But, 
 a surgeon, to whom I since mentioned the circumstance, 
 assured me, that, what I considered as a double organ, 
 was only a separation of the uvula, in the nature of a 
 hare lip ; and that the parts could have been united by 
 sewing them together, which perhaps might have re- 
 moved the difficulty that prevented me from totally 
 reforming his speech. It is very remarkable that his 
 parents were not aware of the circumstance, othervi'ise 
 a surgeon would have remedied the natural irregularity 
 of the organ. 
 
 4. The tongue is called the principal organ of speech ; 
 because, it is either brought to a contact with some other 
 organ, or, it is more or less raised, or depressed, con- 
 tracted, or expanded, and placed in a particular position, 
 in producing every sound. In short, it is very much 
 like a wave of the sea, which is perpetually undulating. 
 
 SECTION V. 
 
 OF ARTICULATION IN LANGUAGE, AND PARTICULARLV 
 OF THE FUNDAMENTAL, OR PRIMARY ARTICULA- 
 TIONS, OUT OF WHICH THE WORDS OF THE ENGLISH 
 LANGUAGE ARE FORMED. 
 
 1. Articulation, in language, is the forming of the 
 human voice, accompanied by the breath, in some few 
 consonants, into the simple and compound sounds, 
 called vowels, consonants, and diphthongs, by the assist- 
 ance of the organs of speech ; and the uniting of those 
 vowels, consonants, and diphthongs together, so as to 
 form syllables and words, and constitute spoken language. 
 
 2. The definition, therefore, of a simple, articulate 
 sound must, in all languages, be, that it is the sound of 
 the human voice, formed by a mere opening of the 
 mouth, without any contact of the organs of speech ; or, 
 by an opening of the mouth, and a contact of two or more 
 of the organs of speech, the tongue, the lips, the teeth, the 
 gums, the palate, the roof of the mouth, and the nose. 
 
 3. The first, and most simple articulations, in all 
 languages, are the former, which are formed by one 
 impulse, or stroke of the voice, and one opening of the 
 mouth, to give that impulse a form and passage, without 
 any particular movement or contact of the organs, to 
 intercept the voice. This species of articulation is, in 
 all languages, called a vowel ; and in the English lan- 
 guage it is so called from the French word voyelle, de- 
 rived from the Latin word vocalis. 
 
 4. The definition of a vowel, therefore, is, that it is a 
 simple, that is, a single articulate sound, formed by one 
 impulse, or stroke, of the voice, and one opening of the 
 mouth in a particular manner, to eive the voice a pas- 
 sage and form, without any contact of the organs of 
 speech. This will be plainly perceived, by sounding, 
 by themselves, the following long vowels, as heard in 
 the words all, art, ace, eve, ore, do ; as i, i, a, e, o, o. 
 The figures placed ever the above vowels have refer- 
 ence to the scale of the vowels which will presently be 
 exhibited. , , i. • 
 
 5. The next articulations called simple, though, m 
 fact, they are really compound sounds, are the conso- 
 nants, which are formed by different contacts of the 
 organs of speech ; but, as no contact of any of the 
 organs can, by itself, produce an articulate sound, everj 
 
EXPOSITION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SPEECH. 
 
 movement and contact must be assisted by an impulse, 
 or stroke of the voice, which, by its action on the or- 
 gans, gives them the power of producing a sound, which 
 is called a consonant sound, at the same time that the 
 impulse, or stroke of the voice, assumes the form of 
 gome particular vowel, at the will of the speaker, and 
 according to the degree in which the mouth is opened, 
 to give the two sounds thus united a passage ; as ab, ap, 
 am, ad, at, al, ak, &c. or ba, pa, ma, da, ta, la, ka, 
 making the vowel sound either precede or foUow the 
 contact of the organs. 
 
 2. The definition of a consonant, therefore, is, that it 
 is a compound articulate sound, formed by the action of 
 a vowel or diphthong on some of the organs of speech, 
 fthen brought to a contact, which vowel, or diphthong, 
 striking on the organs of speech as it passes through the 
 mouth, gives them the power of producing a sound, 
 which mixes itself witli the vowel or diphthong sound, 
 and is inseparable from it, and which is called a conso- 
 nant, from the Latin word consonans, sounding with, or 
 together, because it sounds, or is heard, in conjunction 
 with the vowel or diphthong. 
 
 3. In uttering a consonant, therefore, we hear two 
 sounds, but two sounds which cannot be divided into 
 two separate articulations ; for, take away the vowel or 
 diphthong from the whole sound produced by its action 
 on the organs which are brought together to produce 
 the consonant, and the consonant can no more have ex- 
 istence than the wheel of a mill can have motion, if you 
 remove the water or any other power which moves it. 
 Thus, b, p, m, are formed by three different contacts of 
 the same organs of speech, the lips, preceded or followed 
 bv some vowel sound, as ab, ap, am, or ba, pa, ma. But 
 it is evident that, though the b, p, and m are produced 
 by bringing the lips to a contact, the lips receive the 
 power of producing these consonants from the action of 
 the vowel upon them, as it passes between them, at the 
 instant of their separation ; and that, if the lips were 
 brought together a thousand times, unassisted by a vocal 
 sound acting on them, they would not produce those 
 sounds. 
 
 4. Finally, with respect to a vowel and consonant 
 sound, in every language it is to be observed, that, 
 
 1st, In uttering a vowel, the ear must hear only one 
 simple sound, and that sound must consist of only one 
 impulse or stroke of the voice, passing through an o].en 
 mouth, more or less, without any contact of the organs 
 of speech to intercept it. 
 
 2. That, whether the vowel be a full or a slender one, 
 a long or a short, depends, partly upon the impetus 
 given to the voice, partly upon the manner in which, 
 by an effort of our will, the voice is made to act upon 
 the larynx and glottis, and partly upon the degree in 
 which the mouth is opened to give it a passage ; by 
 which it becomes more or less full, as it is made to ad- 
 vance along the palate, and strike on the extreme back 
 part of it, or nearer towards the teeth. 
 
 3. In uttering a consonant, two united simultaneous 
 soimds must be heard, the one that of a pure vowel or 
 diphthong, preceding a contact of two or more of the 
 organs of speech, or following it, in the instant of sepa- 
 rating the organs ; the other that of a co-existing sound 
 produced by the action of a vowel or diphthong upon 
 two or more of the organs when brought to a contact, 
 but inseparable from the vowel or diphthong, inasmuch 
 as no contact of the organs can of itself produce a con- 
 sonant, and to complete every consonant a separation of 
 the organs is absolutely necessary, as the sound cannot 
 be perfected as long as thev are kept together. 
 
 Concluding Observations on the Formation of the 
 Vowels. 
 In examining Mr. Sheridan's principles, it will be 
 seen that he has, with considerable accuracy, described 
 the manner in which the vowel sounds arc formed ; but, 
 if any teacher, any critic, wishes to be more particular, 
 let him look into a child's mouth whilst he is repeating 
 them deliberately, or place himself before a magnifying 
 glass, and look into his own mouth, and I venture to 
 Msert that he will draw the following conclusion as to 
 the precise manner in which each of thera is produced, 
 proceeding from the sound of a, in all, to that repre- 
 sented by u, in but. 
 
 k% i'lt, 4'ce, e've, 6're, t6', b^t, b!t, bfit. 
 k I. I B b b ihf ih' fih' 
 Instead of t, I have placed an h after the three short 
 vowels, which are, in their very nature, incapable of 
 prolongation, to show that, in the attempt to utter them 
 by themselves without a consonant following them, 
 the aspiration h follows the vowel, and connects itself 
 with it. 
 
 In sounding i he will perceive that the mouth, that 
 is, the jaws, are opened wider than in sounding a ; that 
 the tongue is drawn back towards the opening of the 
 glottis, leaving a considerable cavity, or space, between 
 it and the roof of the mouth, or palate ; and that the 
 impulse, or stroke of the voice, is directed against the 
 back part of the palate, near the passage through which 
 the voice issues : that in sounding 4 the tongue is much 
 advanced towards the teeth, and raised up considerably 
 towards the palate, leaving a less space between it and the 
 tongue ; in consequence of which the stroke of the voice is 
 less full, and more advanced along the palate. In sounding 
 k, he will perceive that the tongue is swelled up, and 
 raised towards the palate, and spread out on both sides ; 
 by which means a small space is left between it and the 
 palate, and the sound consequently becomes less full 
 than the preceding two, and the stroke of the voice 
 is more advanced towards the teeth. In sounding e, he 
 will find that the jaws are almost closed, so that he 
 cannot see the back part of the tongue, whereas in 
 sounding k and a he can see as far back as the uvula 
 and the opening of the glottis ; that the tongue is 
 swelled, or raised up, and thickened as it were, so as to 
 block up considerably the space between it and the pa- 
 late, and to direct the stroke of the voice nearer to the 
 teeth, and render the sound of the voice still less full 
 tlian that of k. In sounding 6, he will perceive that he 
 can see far back into the mouth ; that the point of the 
 tongue is thickened, and turned down on the palate of 
 the underjaw ; and that, along the tongue, which is 
 drawn back, a groove is formed, by the swelling up of 
 the tongue on each side, toward the middle, not far from 
 the edges of it, over which the voice passes ; at the 
 same time that the under lip is raised up and pushed 
 out, and the upper corresponding with it, they conjointly 
 form a groove corresponding with that formed by the 
 tongue, the cavity within the mouth being so great as 
 to render the sound a full one, notwithstanding that the 
 mouth is so much closed by the pushing out of the lips. 
 In sounding 6, he will find that the position of the 
 tongue, and the groove in the middle of it, over which 
 the voice passes, are exactly the same, but that the sides 
 of both lips are brought closer together, and pointed, 
 and pushed out more than in sounding 6, in consequence 
 of which, in forming the sound, he cannot see so fully 
 into his mouth as he can in sounding 6. In both he 
 will perceive that the voice, which has passed along the 
 groove formed by the tongue, acts strongly on the lips 
 as it passes between them. In uttering the sounds ar- 
 bitrarily marked by e, i, u, in et', it', ut', he will perceive 
 that the sound represented by e in et, is produced by a 
 movement of the larynx and glottis, which throws out 
 a short and quick percussion of the voice upon the 
 tongue and palate, which is directed towards the front 
 of the mouth ; that the extremity of the tongue is 
 pointed strongly down to 'i,he lower palate, or gums ; 
 that it is considerably raised in the mouth, but not 
 drawn back ; and th.w it rises towards the back part, so 
 as to receive the impulse of the voice, and throw it for- 
 ward, as I have said. In uttering the sound represented 
 by i, in it, he will perceive that the position of the 
 tongue is the same as in the former sound ; but that, 
 the tongue raises itself more, and throws the sound up 
 to the roof of the mouth. In uttering the sound repre- 
 sented by 6 in ut, he will perceive that the end, or 
 point of ' b . tongue, is looser in the mouth than it was 
 in the f jr jier sounds, and drawn a little farther back 
 from the lower gums, though it rests upon the lower 
 palate ; ihat it is drawn back so much as to leave a con- 
 sideraJi ^e space between it and the palate ; and that, by 
 a stro'ig movement, it raises the back part of it up, so 
 as to "Jirow the voice against the extreme back pai-t and 
 sides if the palate. 
 
 I have dwelt the raor'^ particularly upon the nature of 
 these three »hort soundti, because, neither Mr. Shendan, 
 
EXPOSITION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SPEECH. 
 
 aar any other orthoepist, or grammarian, has, in the 
 siightos*. degree, described them farther than as the 
 thri.ti sliort sounds, which are " incapable of prolonga- 
 tion." — ^ee Mt. Sheridan's Principles of Pronun-

 SECTION VIL 
 
 OF DIPHTHONGS AND THE DEFINITION. 
 
 A diphthong, or compound vowel, as it is called, but 
 which should rather be called a compound vocal articu- 
 lation, is the union of two or more vowels in one arti- 
 culation, or syllable, and is produced by pronouncing 
 the one so instantaneously after the other, that the 
 former flows into, or unites with the latter, so as to 
 form a third compound articulation, or syllable, as ^k, 
 in the word water ; -Aa., in the word waxen ; -^1, in 
 wafer ; Vte, in the pronoun we, &c. &c. ; ya, in the word 
 yawn ; fk, in yard ; ye, in year ; e6, in yoke, &c. &c. 
 
 Here follows a Ust, or table, of all the diphthongs and 
 triphthongs in our language, with the different vowel 
 characters which mark their sonnds ; of which diph- 
 thong zounds no two are alike ; that is, though the 
 vowol characters which represent them be similar or 
 very different from each other, yet each diphthong 
 differs from every other in the table, as not being, in 
 the individual vowel sounds which are heard in its pro- 
 nouciation, oomposed of the same two long vowel sounds, 
 
 the same two short vowel sounds, the same »ong vowel 
 sound followed by a short, or the same short vowel 
 sound followed by a long vowel sound. The same 
 diphthong is sometimes represented by two vowel cha- 
 racters, sometimes by three, as in ye, year, yield : womb 
 woo ; queen ; we, weep, weave ; ware, wear, &c. 
 
 Table. 
 
 There are twenty-five diphthongs, and three triph- 
 thongs, represented mostly by the following vowel cha-

 SECTION VIII. 
 
 OBSERVATIONS ON ARTICULATION, WITH REFERENCE TO 
 THE SIMPLE SOUNDS OF SPEECH. 
 
 1. My first observation is, that; as the definition of 
 an articulate sound is, that it is the sound of the human 
 voice, formed by the organs of speech ; it may be ob- 
 jected against those consonants which are formed en- 
 tirely by the breath, as ef, es, eth, esh, that they cannot 
 be called articulate sounds. Now, this objection would 
 be correct and conclusive, if it could be shown that, 
 a consonant sound could be completed without the as- 
 sistance of a vowel, and that the mere breath, acting 
 upon any movement, or contact of the organs, would be 
 sufficient to enable them to perfect the consonant for 
 the purposes of speech ; but, if we observe the process 
 of articulation, in forming any of the aspirated conso- 
 nanti, keeping our organs for a long time in the position 
 of forming these hissing, serpent, or goose-like sounds, 
 which we may do as long as we please, we shall find, 
 that, though the consonant is in itself entirely sounded 
 by the action of the mere breath upon the organs, whils* 
 they are in contact, yet it cannot be completed into an 
 
8 
 
 EXPOSITION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SPEECH. 
 
 urticulation, fit for the purposes of speech, until some 
 "owel is made to precede, or follow, and unite itself 
 with the contact of the organs, by its being thrown, as 
 it were, upon them, in the very act of bringing them 
 together, or made to follow, in the very act of sepa- 
 rating them. 
 
 2. For instance, I shall take the aspirated consonant 
 ettt, as in theme, path, as sufficient to exemplify my ob- 
 servations. 
 
 Now, if I place my tongue between my teeth, and 
 keep it in that position for a long time, making my 
 breath only act upon these organs, without the previous 
 utterance of any vowel on the instant of throwing them 
 into that position ; or, if I withdraw my tongue, without 
 an actual utterance of some vowel in doing so, I cannot 
 complete the aspiration ffi, any more than a goose can ; 
 but, if I make any vowel either precede or follow the 
 contact, so as to unite with the aspiration, I then com- 
 plete the as})iration, and it becomes a perfect consonant 
 articulation — consonans, that is, sounding with the 
 vowel, as when I say ofli, afli, effi, iffi, ufli, oaQi, &c., 
 or ffii, QiS, thi, ttiS, th6, &c., &c., ffieme, paffi. 
 
 3. My second observation, which will exemplify in 
 a very striking manner, the characteristic difference 
 between a vowel and a consonant, is, that, though in 
 making the breath act upon the organs, whilst in the 
 position necessary to produce the aspirated semivowels, 
 f, s, Qi, sh, an actual incipient, but incomplete degree 
 of sound is heard, yet the case is not the same with 
 respect to the mutes or the rest of the semivowels. 
 On the contrary, the action of bringing and keeping 
 the organs together, without the assistance of a vowel, 
 produces absolute silence ; for, let any person place his 
 organs in the positions necessary to produce b, p, m, n, 
 
 , t, k, d, ng, &c., and keep them together for some 
 time, without uttering, or letting his voice pass, to form 
 a vowel sound, as persons do who stutter ; or, let him 
 litter any vowel sound previously to bringing his organs 
 together, and, instead of separating them to perfect the 
 consonant, let him compress and keep them together, 
 not separating the organs to form a vowel, and he will 
 find that a total absence of articulation must be the 
 consequence. 
 
 4. My third observation is, that, as, in forming the 
 vowels, there is a palpable movement of the mouth and 
 tongue, though there is no actual contact of any of the or- 
 gans, and, as four of the semivowels, es, ez, esh, ezh, are 
 produced by movements and contacts of the tongue, which 
 are not so palpable as those necessary to produce the 
 other consonants ; it may be questioned whether there 
 be any sensible and absolute difference between these 
 four and the vowels. To this I answer, that these con- 
 sonants are formed chiefly by the action of the breath 
 on the organs whilst they are forming ; that they cannot 
 be perfected without the distinct assistance of some 
 vowel, preceding or following the action of the organs ; 
 and that, in uttering them, we hear two sounds united ; 
 whereas every person's ear and organs must be sensible 
 of the fact, that, in uttering any of the vowels, he hears 
 only one articulation ; that, in uttering a consonant, he 
 hears two ; and that nothing can be more evident than 
 this, that a vowel has a positive existence without the 
 aid of any consonant, but a consonant can have no ex- 
 ist«nce without the aid of a vowel. 
 
 6. My fourth and last observation is, that, as h is a 
 very efficient, expressive, and powerful assistant in all 
 languages, so much so that it cannot be dispensed with, 
 and is to be found in a variety of combinations, it may 
 be asked how it can with propriety be said, in all lan- 
 guages, that it is not a letter ; and, as ef, es, etti, and 
 esh, are formed entirely by the breath, it may also be 
 asked upon what ground they can be called articulate 
 ttounds. To these questions I answer, that, as the defi- 
 nition of an articulate is, " the sound of the human 
 voice, fonned by the organs of speech," the character h 
 iH-ing merely the mark of an aspiration, or breathing, 
 without the least mixture of the voice, or contact of the 
 »rgan», it cannot have any claim to be called an articu- 
 late sound ; and that, with respect to cf, es, eth, and 
 fiih, though, in forming them, the breath only, without 
 »ny mixture of the voice, continues to act upon the 
 lyrgans as long as they are kept in the positions neces-. 
 arj to produce thc»c sounds, and no longer ; yet that, 
 
 unless a vowel sound precede or follow the several con. 
 tacts, the consonants cannot be completed. 
 
 I have dwelt the longer on this part of my subject 
 which has reference to the characteristic difference be. 
 tween a vowel and a consonant in all languages, because it 
 is evident that, the farther our writers on grammar 
 have advanced in their cultivation of the language, in 
 other respects, the greater and more palpable is the ig- 
 norance which they have shown upon this point ; and 
 because I consider that it would be the height of pre- 
 sumption in me, to charge such a present authority as 
 Mr. Walker, and every other modern orthoepist, except 
 Dr. Louth and Mr. Sheridan, with ignorance upon a 
 subject apparently so simple, were I not certain that I 
 should be able to prove that the lines which I have 
 drawn are correct. 
 
 OF THE PRINCIPAL IMPROVEMENTS IN 
 THIS DICTIONARY. 
 
 The principal improvements in this Dictionary are — 
 1st. The following key line, which exhibits the nine 
 simple vowel sounds of the English language, of which 
 no two are characteristically the same, with the short 
 quantity of the only three which admit of a short quan- 
 tity, and with the sounds always represented by the 
 vowel characters, w, y, i, u, will be continued through- 
 out the Dictionary, as the head line of every page.

 and of the Vowel Characters, w, y, i, u. 
 
 ill, i'rt, i'ce, e've, n6', t^, b^t', b5t', bflt'— 6n', iXis' ; if; 
 g6od' ; ^, 6 ; ^, e, or i ; i, u. 
 2nd. The following is the key or foot line of the 
 simple consonant sounds, in all 1 9 and 1 pure aspira- 
 tion ; h, to run across the bottom of the first page only 
 with the superfluous and compound letters, and their 
 sounds ; 2 superfluous, c, k, or s ; q, k ; 3 compound, j, 
 ej ; X, eks, or egz ; ch, etsh. For the reason why a 
 short vowel sound should precede each contact of the 
 organs, I refer to Mr. Sheridan's " Principles," preceding 
 this work ; — 
 
 eb', ed', ef , eg', ek', eV, em', en', cp', er', es', et', ev', ez' 
 eOi', eth', esh', ezh', ing', c, k or s ; q, k ; j, ej ; x, 
 eks, or egz ; ch, etsh ; h, an aspiration, eh, ha. 
 
 3d. Contrasted with these, Blr. Walker's head-line; 
 which runs across every page of his dictionary — Mr. 
 Sheridan gives no head-line — will follow it in the second 
 and third pages only : — 
 569. F4te 73, far 77, fill 83, fit 81_mi 93, mit 95—. 
 
 pine 105, pin 107 — nb 162, m^ve 164, nur 167, nd. 
 
 163— tube 171, tub 172, bflll 173—611 229— pSiin-i 
 
 313— thin 466, this 469. 
 
 In this line, the reader will perceive, by only pro- 
 nouncing the words given as examples, that Mr. Walker 
 gives the mere short quantity of the same individual 
 vowel as a characteristically different vowel ; that he 
 allows the language only four diphthongs as running 
 through the whole body of our sjl'ables, namely, i, in 
 pine, u, in tube, 8i, in oil, and ?/u, in pound ; of which 
 number any car, upon sounding the word oil, will in- 
 stantly perceive that in this word, as in boy, coy, toy, 
 both vowels are long, and that, though he has correctly 
 marked the o, as representing the same full S( und as a, 
 in fall, he proves tnc incapacity of his ear to distinguish 
 with exactness the difference between one sound and 
 another, as marked by different vocal characters, in dif- 
 ferent words, or syllables ; for the other vowel, i, does 
 not represent the absolutely short sound denoted by i, 
 in pin, but the sound of i, in m5 ; the diphthong being 
 truly ie, fii, as he should have marked it ; for it would 
 be impossible to give the i the same sound in fiil, bfly, 
 tS^, c3^, as that which it represents in pin. Suppose 
 that, instead of pin, he had given the preposition in as 
 his example of the sound which i reoresents in tnis 
 word, and had placed the same figure of 2 over the i, to 
 denote the ]ieculiar sound which he intended to point 
 out, surely no ear, after pronouncing pin and in, would 
 acknowledge that it heard the sound of i, in m^, in 
 either word ; or, suppose he had given the word cflin, 
 as his example of the diphthong, marking the i by the

 pin, surely any man whose ear was capable of distin- 
 •mishing one sound from another, would immediately 
 perceive that, in order to preserve the short sound 
 marked by I, he must make two syllables of the word, 
 and pronounce it ci-in ; or pronounce the word as one 
 syllable, and give to the o the somid of 4, in fill, and to 
 the i the sound of i, in m^, ciln, c5in, or as two, thus, 
 eSi-ln. 
 
 To this key line of vowel and diphthong sounds, he 
 adds two words, ffiin, this, which contain the two Saxon 
 consonant sounds, arbitrarily marked by th, by our first 
 grammarians, just as if there were a peculiar necessity 
 for adding these two only, and not the other three, sh, 
 th, ng, esh, ezh, ing, which are not to be found in the 
 Latin language, and consequently to represent which no 
 consonant characters are to be found in the Roman al- 
 phabet, as adopted by our first grammarians, in the 
 place of the Saxon, to represent our simple sounds. 
 Now the reader will perceive that these five single con- 
 sonant sounds, as Mr. Sheridan has shown, are each 
 produced by one single contact of the organs which pro- 
 duce them, as simple as those which produce b, p, m ; 
 and the reason why they are marked by two letters is, 
 that, as the Romans had no such consonant sounds, 
 there were consequently no characters in the Roman 
 alphabet to mark them ; and our grammarians, instead 
 of forming five distinct characters to represent them, 
 fell upon the expedient of marking only three of them 
 by two letters, eth, the Greek 4 ffieta, by joining t and 
 h together ; esh, by joining an s to h, sh ; and ing, by add- 
 ing an n to g, ng ; leaving eth and ezh, as in then, azure, 
 ozier, to shift for themselves, the former to be also re- 
 presented by th, and the latter sometimes by z, some- 
 times by s, as in the words just given, azure, osier. 
 
 4th. My key line of the vowels contains the exact 
 number of vowel sounds of the English language, of 
 which no two are characteristically the same. They 
 are given to the number of nine — See Mr. Sheridan's 
 "Principles ;" — each, in its order, in a kind of articulate 
 scale, as issuing from the larynx and glottis, and, from 
 them, striking on, and proceeding along the palate, or 
 roof of the mouth, from the hollow or back part of the 
 mouth, in sounding i in all, the fidlest vocal sound in 
 any language, to the front, near the teeth, in sounding 
 ?, in eve, the slenderest vocal articulate sound in any 
 anguage, and terminating in the pushing out of the 
 .ips in 6, in the word no, to &, in the word to, the last 
 of the first six of the line, which may be called long, or 
 doubtful vowels, in point of quantity ; because that, 
 compared with the last three, marked by e, i, u, in b^t, 
 bit, bflt, their quantity, when accented, is long, when 
 unaccented, short ; whereas e, i, u, are incapable of 
 being sounded by themselves without an aspiration fol- 
 lowing them in the attempt to do so, as when we say, 
 eh', ih', uh' ; and are therefore absolutely short, and 
 require a consonant accented to follow them, us in ]m!\/, 
 bit', but' ; der', dir', dur', though all consonant accented 
 syllables, as esh', ish', ush', ; eng', ing', nng' ; and, 
 therefore, have no comparative quantity. 
 
 4th. That the three duplicates, or short sounds, a, in 
 was', 4, in at', and 6, in good', are never distinguished in 
 the dictionary by the mark of short quantity placed over 
 them, as I have shown them in the key line, because 
 that, as they are never heard except when they precede 
 
 consonant, as in the words just given, with the accent 
 upon that consonant, it is impossible to mistake their 
 quantity ; and they must be snort, as it would be im- 
 possible to distinguish the consonant by an accent, or 
 smart stroke of the voice, without passing quickly over 
 the vowel or diphthong which precedes it in the same 
 syllable, and reducing the vowel or diphthong to a short 
 quantity. Accordingly, it will be perceived, that the 
 sound a, which is accented, and therefore pronounced 
 fully, and dwelt on, in all ; or, capable of being dwelt 
 un, is reduced to a short quantity in i^as', because the 
 ronsonaiit, s, is accented ; and the two vowels forming 
 a drjihtbong tre rapidly passed over, in order to accent 
 die oonsunant. The 6, in on', is also the same charac- 
 teristic sound as h., in all, differing only in quantity, in 
 cance([uence of the accent being on the n : the h,, in at', 
 dSffers utJy in quantity from tne ^ in k'rt ; the sound 
 of 6, 131 good', and of ft, in bull, and bflsh', differ only in 
 
 quantity, not sound, from ft, in t&, dfi', or prAvc, by tie 
 accent being on the consonant in the former — on I'.ie 
 vowel in the latter. These duplicates, therefore, 
 throughout the dictionary, are always marked by th« 
 figures that are placed over their correlative long sounds, 
 the consonant which follows them showing that thry 
 are sounded short. Another reason for not slwny's 
 placing the mark of long or short quantity over the long 
 or short vowels, in addition to the figures, is, that the 
 type would take up too much space, and make the lines 
 appear very unsightly. 
 
 7th. The vowel sound 6, in n^, g6' ; the vowel sound 
 3., ii' i'ce, pa'ce ; and the vowel sound &, in e've, hiyre, 
 &c., whether accented and prolonged, or not, are always 
 the same, and can scarcely be said to have a short quan- 
 tity ; so that three of the long vowels, k, h, 8, as in ill, 
 i'rt, t(/, have a short quantity in ^As', S,t', g6od' : the 
 other three, d, e, 6, have not a short quantity. 
 
 8th. That the sound of the letter w, in every syllable 
 and word in which it appears in the writing of words, 
 whether in the beginning, middle, or ending, represent- 
 ing exactly the same sound as that of 6, in to', whether 
 it be sounded long or short, will always be represented 
 by the vowel 6, being always a vowel. 
 
 9th. That the letter u, in diphthongs, representing 
 exactly the same sound as w, in wit, will, like w, be re- 
 presented by 6 ; for, take the words wit', wick', quit', 
 quick', and remove the q from the latter two, and you 
 will instantly perceive that the w, the u, and the vowel 
 o, in to, represent exactly the same sound in the diph- 
 thongs wi and ui, as wit', wick', uit', uick', 6it', ftik'. 
 The u, therefore, like w, when used in forming diph- 
 thongs, will be represented by 8. 
 
 10th. That as the letter y always represents the sound 
 ^, or i ; ^ in the beginning of every word, ye', yo'u, yet', 
 young', ^e, ^6, eit', efing' ; and frequently in the ending, 
 as in lovely, Iflv'-le ; when so sounded, its sound will be 
 invariably represented by the figure 4 over the y : and 
 when it is sounded i, as m try, by the letter i and a dot 
 placed over it, as tri. 
 
 1 1th. When the letters i and u, as named in the al- 
 phabet, are so sounded, as diphthongs, but not accented, 
 as in contrite, destitute, and in all syllables in which . 
 they precede e not sounded, I distinguish the sounds 
 thus, d^'s'-te-tu't, k6n-tri't, with the accentual mark ; 
 the 6 in trite, as in all words of one syllable ending in 
 e, as in late, mate, rate, grate, rite, prate, and tute, 
 being left out, as not sounded, the vowels in such ter- 
 minating syllables being long, as a't, e't, i't, o't, u't; 
 and also to distinguisn more strikingly the diphthong 
 sound of the i and u, in such syllables, from the corre- 
 lative, short, simple vowel sounds, of which these letters 
 are often the marks, as in b!t, bAt. And, whenever the 
 i and u are accented, I merely place the accentual mark 
 over them, as in di'ce, du'ce, di's, du's. But in all syl- 
 lables in which i and u retain their full sounds, unac- 
 cented, I do not place any mark over them, as thusi 
 r^f-lu-^nt, k6-&g-\i-l&t', r^k'-t^-fi-^r, rek'-u-zant, 
 ^d'-«-fi. 
 
 12th. ITiat, as the letters o, in on', and a, in wa«^, 
 both represent the short quantity of i, in all, I am not 
 particukr in mfirking these short sounds in diphthongs 
 by A only, or by A ; but sometimes by one, sometimes by 
 the other, as in was', 66z', watch, 6atsh, quantity, qua- 
 lity, k68n'-tit-5, k8il'-it-5. 
 
 13th. That, when a diphthong occurs in a syllable, 
 the diphthong, and not the following consonant, is often 
 the accented sound, as in foul, oil, boi'l, bou'nd; f481. 
 ael, bii'l, bA6'nd ; and I mark the diphthong by placing 
 the accent after the latter vowel, as ie'l. But, when 
 the following consonant, and not the diphthong, is ac- 
 cented, as in was', watch', 8iz', ft6tsh', I mark the con- 
 sonant ; both the vowels, and the whole syllable, or word, 
 being short. I here repeat what I have already laid 
 down, that three of the six vowel sounds, i, i, 6, have 
 a short quantity, when the accent is upon a following 
 consonant, as in ^4s', n6t', it', gftod', pAl'l, bfil'l ; the 
 \owel character 6, throughout the language, and not 
 the character A, as in was, almost invariably represent- 
 ing the short quantity ot 4, as b61', p61', f61', d61', &c.,to 
 z and ng, in I6ng', and the "vowel character u sometimes 
 representing the short quantity of 6. But I defy any, 
 ' tilt) nicest car, to prove that the other three long vowel 
 
10 
 
 EXPOSITION OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SPEECH. 
 
 soundsi, J, e, 6, have any short quantity ; though their 
 sounds, when they are accented, may be prolonged at plea- 
 sure ; and I also defy any person to take the sound ^, as 
 preceding any consonant from b to z, and to squeeze it. 
 Air. W^alker's term in speaking of ee, or shorten it, 
 : nto the peculiar sound which i represents in ib', if, it', 
 iz', ing' ; diifering characteristically from each of the 
 other eight, whether sounded long or short, or whether 
 the following consonant be accented or not. 
 
 14th. That the sounds of the consonants, and of the 
 superfluous, and compound letters, follow the vowels at 
 the bottom of the first page only, with a short vowel 
 sound preceding each, in order to enable the student, or 
 foreigner, to make accurate observations on the manner 
 in which the organs of speech are brought together to 
 form them ; and the nice distinctions between them ; 
 in consequence of the slight differences which the dif- 
 ferent contacts of the very same organs occasion, as in 
 b, p, m, accordingly as they are more or less compressed, 
 or as a greater or less portion of them is brought to- 
 gether ; or as they may be kept in contact for some 
 time, to prolong the articulations, as in eb', ed', eg' ; or 
 must be instantly separated, as in ep', ek', et' ; in which 
 latter three, the attempt to keep the organs together 
 .'or the smallest space of time would only prevent a com- 
 pletion of the articulations. Or, again, as in eOi, in 
 Bieme, and eth, in then, the nice distinction between 
 these two sounds, the contact of the tongue placed be- 
 tween the teeth, resting on the under, and pressing 
 slightly against the under part of the upper, the breath 
 only acting on the organs in the former etH, and the 
 breath and voice united, with a closer pressure of the 
 tongue against the teeth, acting on the latter, and con- 
 stituting the nice characteristic difference between 
 them — eOi, eth. — See Mr. Sheridan's "Principles," and 
 observe that throughout every syllable in the dictionary 
 they will be distinguished from each other as they are here. 
 
 15th. I have to observe, that the sound ng, ing, does 
 not commence more than two or three words in our 
 language ; as inguinal, ingle, pronounced ing-guin-al, 
 ing^l ; and that zh, ezh, does not commence a single 
 ■word, as it does in a number of French words, as jar- 
 dine, jamais, jambe, jarre, jambaje, &c. ; but, that it 
 commences, as well as ends, many syllables, supplying 
 the place of s ; as in the words adhesion, cohesion, trea- 
 sure, measure, pronounced ad-he-zhun, ko-he-zhun, 
 trezh-ur, mezh-ur. 
 
 16th. Throughout the dictionary, instead of dzh, 
 which Mr. Sheridan makes use of, as the compound 
 sound of which soft g and j are composed, and their re- 
 presentatives, that is, the sound of d united to zh, dzh, 
 edzh, I make use of j, as Mr. Walker sometimes cor- 
 rectly and judiciously does. But, whereas he places d 
 before the j in many words, I give the j singly, as a 
 perfect mark for the full compound sound ; the sound 
 of d before j, ir any one syllable in the language, not 
 being heard by any ear, though Mr. Walker's led him to 
 suppose it could be heard preceding j in the very same 
 syllable, as in grudje, judje, lodje, trudjc, &c. ; thus, 
 in several instances, constituting his eye, not his ear, 
 the judge of sounds, and in this very word, judge, fol- 
 lowing the spelling, and taking it for granted that it 
 must be heard preceding its own sound, incorporated 
 with zh, ez\ in the pronunciation of g, because the d 
 precedes the g in the spelling. I give Mr. Sheridan's. 
 Mr. Walker's, and my pronunciation of the following 
 words, dreds^e. drudge, grudge, judge, lodge, trudge, as 
 lollow : — Mi. Sheridan, dredzh', drudzh', grudzh', 
 dzhudzh', lodzh , trudzh' ; correct ; but the dzh has an 
 uncouth appearance, though he properly omits the e, as 
 not being sounded. My pronunciation, drej', druj', 
 gruj', juj', loj', truj'. Mr. Walker, dredje, drudje, 
 grudje, judje, lodje, trudjc : three errors ; first, the d 
 not sounded; second, the e not sounded; third, no 
 letter marlced as the accented sound ; an omission re- 
 markable throughout his dictionary, not a single word 
 of one syllable being marked with an accent, though, 
 in fact, even the smallest words have an accented letter 
 — no'haso'; to' has o'; if has f; in' has n'. In fine, I defy 
 any critic, any teacher, in England, Scotland, or Ire- 
 land, to prove ^at 1 have advanced, in these assertions 
 »nd observations, a single one that is incorrect ; and I 
 clusu them with an expression of my astonishment that, 
 
 it did not occur to Mr. Sheridan, that, in order to forji) 
 a correct pronouncing dictionary of the English lan- 
 guage, that should be, as it were, a fac-simile repre- 
 sentation to the eye of the actual pronunciation of its 
 words, it was necessary to leave out every letter, whe- 
 ther a simple, or compound mark, in every syllable of 
 the language, for which the ear does not perceive a 
 sound, in the usual manner of pronouncing every word, 
 as he has done in dredzh', drudzh', grudzh', dzhudzh', 
 lodzh', trudzh', which exactly correspond to mine, given 
 in a simpler form — drej', druj', gruj', juj', loj', truj'. 
 
 I here state a few circumstances connected with the 
 publication of 31r. Sheridan's and Mr. Walker's dic- 
 tionaries, and the discontinuance of the former, of 
 which no persons, except the publishers of the latter, 
 could be aware. Mr. Sheridan's dictionary was first 
 published in 1780, and printed for J. Dodsley, Pail Mall, 
 C. Dilly, in the Poultry, and J. Wilkie, St. Paul's 
 Church-yard. Mr. Sheridan died at Margate, in the 
 arms of his younger son, the late R. B. Sheridan, on 
 Thursday, the 14th of August, 1788, just eight years 
 after the publication of his dictionary, which he left in the 
 hands of a very near relative and his pubhshers, who, in 
 consequence of some misunderstanding, discontinued it. 
 
 Mr. Walker was, at that time, a practical teacher of 
 elocution in several schools in and about London ; and, 
 being apprised of these circumstances, was encoura/,ed 
 by tl"> booksellers to take Mr. Sheridan's dictionary 
 and form another upon the basis of it ; which, for the last 
 forty-four years, has been admitted as the standard for a 
 correct pronunciation of the words of the English 
 language. 
 
 17. In marking all the diphthongs commencing with 
 the vowel characters e and i, I make use of the letter y, 
 as sounded e, as in onion, fin-yfin, righteous, ri't-yfis, 
 instead of those vowel characters. 
 
 Concluding Statements, which mark some of the most 
 striking features that distinguish the Author^ s Dic- 
 tionary from Mr. Sheridan's, Mr. Walker's, and 
 every other that has been presented to the Public 
 since the publication of theirs. 
 
 1. A fac-simile of a correct pronunciation of every 
 word, and the natural division of it into syllables, by the 
 organs of articulation, is presented to the ear, as well as 
 to the eye ; for a single letter, vowel or consonant, docs 
 not appear, in any syllable, for which the ear will not 
 be able to perceive a sound, in a correct pronunciation 
 of every word. 
 
 2. He has not only followed the example of Dr. Web- 
 ster, in his American dictionary, in giving all the parti- 
 ciples and participial explanations of the active transitive 
 verbs, as distinct words, but he has added to them all 
 the verbs and their participles, and numbers of other 
 parts of speech, hitherto only noticed as " not in use," 
 or " obsolete," by Johnson, Webster, &c. ; thus sub- 
 mitting them to the judgment of our prose and poetical 
 writers to re-introduce them into the language, as still 
 in use in many parts of England and Scotland, and upon 
 the principle that, as long as the works of Chaucer, 
 Spenser, Douglas, Shakspeare, &c. exist, in which they 
 are to be found, they cannot be considered as obsolete. 
 
 3. In the words ab'bess, sum'mer, run'ner, telling, 
 rob'ber, rob'bing, ful'ler, sob'bir,-g, snap'pish, whip'ping, 
 — in short, in every word in the English language, in 
 the spelling of which two consonants come together, 
 with the accent upon the first, the closeness of the pres- 
 sure of the organs, as absolutely necessary to form the 
 accent, renders it impossible to bring them back to the 
 same contact, without an actual stop, to give them time 
 to collapse again, in order to repeat the same sound ; in 
 all such words, therefore, the imagination and the eye 
 of Mr. Sheridan and Mr. Walker deceived the ear, and 
 they have in every word given the two consonants in 
 marking the pronunciation, though only one is hearfj. 
 which one only is presented to the eye throughout mj 
 dictionary, upon the general principle already laid down. 
 To my astonishment, also, I find that, even in words 
 containing only one accented consonant, both Mr. She- 
 ridan and Mr. Walker double that consonant, in giving 
 the pronunciation, as in the words particularity, parti- 
 cularize, particularly, which they thus mark — par-tiki 
 ku-ler-ize, par-tik-ku-lor-le, par-tik-ku-lar'it-c ; m-

 glead of per-tik-u-lariit-e, per-tikiu-ler-le, per-tik-u- 
 ler-iz ; abol'ish, anal'ogy, a-bol-lish, a-nal-lo-gy ; 
 pronunciations grossly inconsistent with the freedom of 
 articulation and the correctness of pronunciation. 
 
 4. It has been already stated, that even the smallest 
 words of one syllable, such as, as', in', if, no', to', do', 
 not', which, as Home Tooke has shown, are absurdly 
 called particles, have each an accented letter ; and Mr. 
 Sheridan, the first and the only writer that ever ex- 
 plained and exemplified the true nature of our accent 
 tind emphasis, has accordingly marked every word of 
 one syllable by its distinguished accented letter. On 
 the contrai'y, it is a singular fact, that Mr. Walker has 
 not, in a single word of one syllable throughout the 
 language, marked an accented letter. This leads me to 
 my statement that, 
 
 3th. As in most syllables in our language ending in 
 e, preceded by another vowel, as ate, ite, ote, nte, the 
 first vowel is long, and the latter, or last, not sounded, 
 according to my general rule, I omit the terminating e, 
 and place the accentual mark aft«r the preceding vowel, 
 thus, b4't, hd't, dd't, m4't, fd't, ri't, n6't, instead of 
 bate, hate, date, mate, rale, rite, note ; the accentual 
 mark placed after the vowel, in any part of a word, pre- 
 venting the syllable from being confounded with bat , 
 hat', dat', mat', rat', rit', not', &c. Here I may observe, 
 that all unaccented syllables are not short, for some, as 
 in the last syllable in con-trit', des^ti-tut', are longer 
 liian the accented syllables, con' and des'. 
 
 Though Mr. Walker does not give ee and doable oo 
 
 in his key-line, as marks of diphthong sounds, he, in 
 every syllable in the language in which they occur, 
 marks them as such : thus, ^i, 6S, tshi^r, tshSSze, 
 though, in every syllable of the kind, no ear but his 
 could perceive more than one i, one S. 
 
 6. I have already stated that Mr. Sheridan's dic- 
 tionary was first published in 1780, and that he died in 
 1 788. His dictionary, as well as Mr. Walker's, pub- 
 lished in 1791, exactly three years after, exhibits to the 
 eye thousands of errors and corruptions in the pronun- 
 ciation and division of words into syllables ; and both 
 present, perhaps, a million of letters, for which the ear 
 does not hear a single sound. But, I challenge any 
 critic to point out a single error, in his developement of 
 the exact number, nature, and properties of the simple 
 and compound elementary sounds of the English lan- 
 guage, as exemplified in his " Art of Reading Prose," 
 and in the rules which precede his dictionary. Further, 
 as I am indebted to his very early instructions for every 
 jot of accuracy upon this subject, every source of in- 
 formation, every thing but the adventitious possession 
 of a good ear, I should consider it a duty which I owe 
 to his memory — to the memory of a good man, and an 
 evangelical Christian, in practice as well as belief — to 
 call my dictionary " Sheridan's Corrected," were I not 
 aware that my doing so would not remove the im- 
 pression which, for forty-four years, has rested almost 
 universally on the public mind, that Mr. Walker's dic- 
 tionary contained a pure standard of English pro- 
 nunciation.

 From the above specimens it must appear, 1st, that I 
 do not present to the eye a single letter, in a single syl- 
 lable, of any word, for which the ear does not perceive 
 a sound, in the best pronunciation of that word ; 2d, 
 that, where the perfect ease and freedom of articulation 
 will allow me, I keep the primitive syllables together, 
 and make no difficult or unnatural divisions ; 3d, that I 
 am the first person who has pointed out every diph- 
 thong in the language ; 4th, that, though Mr. Sheridan 
 gives double consonants not sounded, and even doubles 
 single consonants, he marks the accented letter cor- 
 rectly ; 3th, that he does not corrupt the natural pro- 
 nunciations as much as Mr. Walker does ; 6th, that he 
 never absurdly marks the accent, as if it fell upon a 
 letter not sounded at all, as the e, in caprice', abridge', &c. , 
 and never presents an impossibility to the eye, that of two 
 consonants forming a syllable,as bl,in amiable,capable,&c. 
 
 Having closed my observations on the vowel, conso- 
 
 nant, and diphthong sounds of the language, I challenge 
 the closest, the severest criticism, to discover a single 
 error, except a casual, typographical one, ^n my deve- 
 lopement of the simple and compound ciCments of 
 speech ; but I deprecate any attempt at criticism, unless 
 the critic shall have first satisfied his ear, that, in the 
 key line of the vowels, he hears exactly the nine vowel 
 sounds of the English language, of which each is cha- 
 racteristically different from the other eight, and the 
 exact sounds represented by w, y, i, u ; or, unless he 
 can prove that there are fewer, orsiore vowel sounds in 
 the Lanffuaffe. 
 
 It remams now merely to observe, that Chalmers'

 ACCENTS, &c. 
 
 Throughout his Dictionary, Dr. Johnson invariably 
 placed the mark of the acute accent of the Greeks 
 over the vowel of the accented syllable, and that prac- 
 tice has been continued to the present day in all edi- 
 tions of his Dictionary, as Todd's, Chalmers's, and, 
 I believe, in every other ; a practice which, if foreigners 
 did not very naturally trust to their ears, not their 
 eyes, and catch up the sounds of our words, in common 
 conversation with the natives of England, Scotland, 
 and Ireland, would have concealed from them the correct 
 accentual pronunciation of every word in which the 
 
 accent is placed, or falls, on the consonant, See Mr. 
 
 Sheridan*! exposition of the cause of Dr. Johnson's 
 
 doing so, as he has exemplified it in his " Art of 
 Reading Prose," together with his explanation of the 
 true nature of our accent, which cannot be given 
 here. 
 
 It will be necessary for foreigners, particularly (he 
 French, who have not the sound of the Greek theta 
 in their language, which is marked in the English lan- 
 guage by t joined to h, to take notice that the aspirated 
 sound, as in ffieme, flieatre, paQi, with, &c., will be 
 distinguished from the partly vocal, and partly aspirated 
 sound heard in thy, then, loathe, &c., by a stroke 
 across the top of the letters t and h, thus, ^, as often 
 as it occurs.— See Principles of Pronunciation. 
 
A CRITICAL AND FACSIMILE 
 
 PRONOUNCING AND EXPLANATORY DICTIONARY 
 
 OF THE 
 
 MR. WALKER'S OBSERVATIONS ON THE 
 LETTER "A." 
 
 *OK THE ALPHABETICAL PRONUNCIATION OF THE 
 LETTER A. 
 
 So many profound and ingenious observations have 
 been made upon this first step to literature, that vo- 
 lumes might be filled with the erudition that has been 
 lavished on this letter alone. The priority of place it 
 claims, in all alphabets, has made it so much the object 
 of attention, that philologists suppose the foundation of 
 learning but weakly laid, till the natural and civU his- 
 tory of the first letter be fully settled. 
 
 But, however deep have been their researches into 
 the origin of this letter, we find no author in our lan- 
 guage has hitherto attempted to settle the disputes that 
 have arisen between the natives of England, Ireland, 
 and Scotland, about the true sound of it, when called 
 by its name. Instead, therefore, of tracing this cha- 
 racter through the circles of Gomer, the Egyptian hie- 
 roglyphics, the mysterious Abraxas, or the Irish Ogum, 
 I shall endeavour to obviate a difficulty that frequently 
 arises when it is pronounced in the horn-book ; or, in 
 other words, to inquire what is the true name of the 
 first letter of the English alphabet — whether we are to 
 «ay. Aye, B, C; Ak, B, C; or Aw, B, C. 
 
 And first, it will be necessary to consider the nature 
 of a vowel ; which grammarians are generally agreed 
 in defining to be " a simple articulate sound, formed by 
 the impulse of the voice and the opening of the mouth 
 in a particular manner. " Now, as every vowel by it- 
 self is sounded long, as nothing but its junction with a 
 consonant can make it otherwise, it is natural, when 
 pronouncing this vowel alone, to give it the long open 
 sound; but as this long open sound is threefold, as 
 heard in face, father, and water, a question arises, which 
 of these long sounds shall we adopt as a common name 
 to the whole species of this letter ? The English make 
 choice of the a in face, the Irish of that in father, and the 
 Scotch of that in water. Each party produces words 
 where the letter a is sounded in the manner they con- 
 tend for ; but when we demand why one should have 
 the preference, the controversy is commonly at an end ; 
 any farther reasons are either too remote or too insigni- 
 ficant to be produced ; and, indeed, if a diversity of 
 names to vowels did not confound us in our spelling, or 
 declaring to each other the component letters of a word, 
 it would be entirely needless to enter into so trifling a 
 question as the mere name of a letter ; but when we 
 nnd ourselves unable to convey signs to each other, on 
 account of this diversity of names, and that words them- 
 selves are endangered by an improper utterance of their 
 component parts, it seems highly incumbent on us to 
 attempt an uniformity in this point, which, insignificant 
 as it may seem, is undoubtedly the foundation of a just 
 and reguar pronunciation. 
 
 The first rule for naming a letter, when pronounced 
 alone, seems to be this : Whatever sound we give to a 
 letter when terminating a syllable, the Fame sound ought 
 to be given to it when pronounced alone ; because, in 
 both cases, they have their primary, simpie sound, un- 
 influenced by a succeeding vowel or consonant ; and, 
 therefore, when we pronounce a letter alone, it ought 
 to have such a sound as docs not suppose the existence 
 of any other letter. But wherever a terminates a syl- 
 lable with the accent upon it, (the only state in which 
 it can be said to be pure,) it has always the English 
 sound of that letter. The only exceptions to this rule 
 are, the words fu-ther, master, and ica-ter ; and that 
 these are merely exceptions appears from the uniformity 
 with which the a is pronounced otherwise in parent, 
 papal, taper, fatal, &c. The other vowels have their 
 names exactly similar to the sound they have in a simi- 
 lar situation, as the e like that in ine-grim, the i like 
 the i in ti-tle ; the o as the o in no-ble, and the u like 
 the u in tu-tor. Thus, as it appears from the general 
 analogy of pronunciation, that the sound of the a, which 
 the English adopt, is the only one that does not neces- 
 sarily suppose the existence of any other sound, it in- 
 evitably follows that theirs only is the proper appellation 
 of that letter. 
 
 But, there is another analogy by which we may de- 
 termine the true sound of the vowels when pronounced 
 singly ; and that is, the sound they have when preserved 
 long and open by the final e. Thus we call the letter e 
 by the sound it has in theme, the letter i as it sounds in 
 time, the letter o as heard in tone, and the m as in tune ; 
 and why the letter a should not be pronounced as heard 
 in face cannot be conceived, as each of the other vowels 
 has, like a, a variety of other sounds, as they are united 
 with letters which, in some measure, alter their quality. 
 In consequence of entertaining a different idea of the 
 a, when pronounced in the alphabet, we see the natives 
 of Ireland very prone to a different pronunciation of the 
 words where this letter occurs ; and, indeed, it is quite 
 consistent with their doctrine of the sound of a, that 
 the words parent, papal, taper, and fatal should be 
 pronounced pah-rent, pah-pal, tah-per, and fah-tal. 
 We find the Scotch, likewise, inclinable to the same 
 pronunciation of a, when in words, as when alone. 
 Thus we hear Sawtan for Satan, saw-cred for sacred, 
 and law-ity for laity ; and this is perfectly consistent 
 with the manner in which they pronounce the letter a, 
 when alone : there is no medium. If this be not the 
 true pronunciation of these words, the a is certainly to 
 be sounded as the English do : for, whenever the Eng- 
 lish give the Italian sound, as it may be called, to the 
 a, except in the words father and master, it is always 
 in consequence of its junction with some consonant, 
 which determines it to that sound ; as in monosyllables 
 terminating in r, as bar, car, far ; but where it is not 
 affected by a succeeding consonant, as in the words poi- 
 rent, papal, natal, fatal, we then hear it pronounced 
 as the slender English a, both in and out of composition. 
 It will, perhaps, be objected, that the most frequent 
 
 13 
 
sliort sound of a, as heard in cat, rat, mat, carry, marry, 
 parry, is the short sound of the Italian a in father car, 
 mar, par, and not the short sound of the a in care, 
 niare, pare ; but it may be answered, that this want of 
 correspondence between the name of the letter, and the 
 most frequent short sound, is common to the rest of the 
 vowels : for the o, as heard in cot, not, rot, is not the 
 short sound of the o in coat, note, wrote, but of the a 
 in water, or of the diphthongs in caught, naught, and 
 wrought; and if we ought to call the a, ah, because its 
 short sound corresponds to ah, for the very same reason 
 we ought to call the o, au ; and a similar alteration must 
 take place with the rest of the vowels. As therefore, 
 from the variety of sounds the vowels have, it is impos- 
 sible to avoid the inconvenience of sometimes sounding 
 the letter one way in a syllable, and another way in a 
 word, we must either adopt the simple long sound when 
 we would pronounce the letter alone, or invent new 
 names for every different sound in a different word, in 
 order to obviate the difficulty. 
 
 It must not be dissembled, however, that the sound 
 of a, when terminating a syllable not under the accent, 
 seems more inclined to the Irish than the English «, 
 and that the ear is less disgusted with the sound of Ah- 
 mer-i-cah than of A-mer-i-cay : but to this it may be 
 answered, that letters not under the accent, in a thou- 
 sand instances, deviate from their true sound ; that the 
 vowel a, like several other vowels in a iin^J syllable not 
 accented, has an obscure sound, bordering on u ; but if 
 the a, in this situation, were pronounced ever so dis- 
 tinctly, and that this pronunciation were clearly the a 
 in father, it would be nothing to the purpose : when 
 the a is pronounced alone, it may be said not only to be 
 a letter, but a distinct character, and a noun substan- 
 tive ; and, as such, has the same force as the letters in 
 an accented syllable. The letter a, therefore, as the 
 first character in the alphabet, may always be said to 
 have the accent, and ought to have the same long, open 
 sound, as is given to that letter when accented in a syl- 
 lable, and not influenced in its sound by any preceding 
 or succeeding consonant. 
 
 " We may therefore conclud ";.. that if all vowels, when 
 pronounced alone, are accente i laid long, if spelling be 
 the pronunciation of letters elone, (as it would be ab- 
 surd to suppose ourselves acquainted with the different 
 consonants that determine the sound of tbg vowels 
 before they are pronounced,) it follows, that i». CDelling, 
 or repeating the component parts of a word, w^ ought 
 to give those parts their simple and uncombined sound : 
 but there is no uncombined sound of the vowel a, except 
 the slender sound contended for, unless in the words 
 father and master,- and, therefore, when we repeat 
 letters singly, in order to declare the sound of a word, 
 we must undoubtedly give the first letter of the alphabet 
 the sound we ever give it in the first syllable of the nu- 
 merous class la-dy, pa-gan, ma-son, ha-sin, &c. 
 
 " Thus, after placing every objection in its strongest 
 light, and deducing our arguments from the simplest 
 and clearest principles, this important question seems at 
 last decided in favour of the English ; who, independent 
 of the arguments in their favour, may be presumed to 
 have a natural right to determine the name of the letter 
 in (juestion, though it has been so often litigated by 
 their formidable and learned, though junior, relations. 
 For though, in some cases, the natives of Ireland and 
 Scotland adhere rather more closely to analogy than 
 the English themselves, yet in this we find the English 
 pronunciation perfectly agreeable to rule ; and that the 
 slender pronunciation of the letter a, as they pronounce 
 it in the alphabet, is no more than giving it that simple 
 aound it ever has, when unconnected with vowels or 
 consonants that alter its power. " 
 
 The broad sound resembling that of the German a h 
 found in many of our monosyllables, as all, wall, malt, 
 salt : in which a is pronounced as au in cause, or aw 
 in law. A open, not unlike the a of the Italians, is 
 found. Dr. Johnson says, in father, rather, and more 
 obscurely in fancy, fast, &c. This pronunciation is 
 indeed found in rath, but not in its derivative rather, 
 the a of which is usually uttered as in fancy. A slender, 
 or close, is the peculiar a of the English language, re- 
 sembling the sound of the French e masculine, or diph- 
 thong at in pais, or perhaps a middle sound between 
 them, or between the a and the e ; to this the Arabick 
 a is said nearly to approach ; as in the words place, 
 face, waste, and all those that terminate in ation ; as 
 relation, nation, generation. A is also, in some words, 
 transient and unobserved, as in the last syllable of car- 
 riage and marriage ; in others less faintly sounded, as 
 in those ■ of captain and chaplain ; and in some ob- 
 scurely uttered, as in collar, jocular. A, an article set 
 before nouns of the singular number ; a man, a tree. 
 Before words beginning with a vowel and h mute, it is 
 written an ; as, an ox, an egg, an honour, an habitual 
 practice. A is sometimes a noun ; as, a great A. A 
 is placed before a participle, or participial noun ; and is 
 considered as a contraction of at ; as, I am a walking. 
 It also seems to be anciently contracted from at, vphen 
 placed before local surnames ; as, Thomas a Becket. 
 In other cases, it seems to signify to ; and in some cftses 
 it signifies in. A, prefixed to many or few, implies one 
 whole number ; as, Told of a many thousand warlike 
 French. — Shnks. A has a peculiar signification, de- 
 noting the proportion of one thing to another ; as, The 
 landlord hath a hundred a year. In burlesque poetry, 
 it lengthens out a syllable, without adding to the sense ; 
 as, line-a, rhyming to China. — Dryden. A is some- 
 times corruptly put for he ; as, will a come ? for will he 
 come? It is also a barbarous corruption for have. A, 
 in composition, seems to have sometimes the power of 
 the French a in these phrases, a droit, a gauche, &c. , 
 and sometimes to be contracted from at. Dr. Johnson 
 says ; as, aside, aslope, afoot, asleep, athirst, aware. 
 Yet some of these are not so contracted. They are the 
 same as on side, on foot, on sleep. So adays was for- 
 merly written on days ; aboard, on hoard. There are 
 words of which the a is become so component a part as 
 not to be displaced ; as, afresh, alive, aloud, anew ; but 
 it is redundant in arise, arouse, awake. A, in abbre- 
 viations, stands for artium, or arts; as A.B., bachelor 
 of arts, artium haccalaureus ; A.M., master of arts, ar- 
 tium magister ; or anno ; as A.D., anno domini. A, 
 with the addition of the two Latin words per se, mean- 
 ing hy itself, is used by our elder writers to denote a 
 nonesuch. It may have been adopted from the custom 
 of the child's school, in which every letter, we may pre- 
 sume, was taught to be expressed per se." 
 
 The following are the Observations of Mr. Todd, or 
 Mr. Chalmers, on the letter A, as taken from Todd's 
 Johnson's Dictionary : 
 
 " A, has, in the English language, regularly only two 
 •ouuds peculiar to itself ; a short and a long one ; all 
 other sounds being irregular ; and those of a are va- 
 riooi, according to its combination with other letters. 
 
 MY OBSERVATIONS ON THE LETTER " A," AND ALSO ON 
 THE OBSERVATIONS OF MR. WALKER, AND THOSE 
 CONTAINED IN TODd's JOHNSON's DICTIONARY, AS 
 JUST GIVEN. 
 3 
 
 A. The first letter of the alphabet ; so pronounced 
 by the English in naming it, in the alphabet, in spelling, 
 and, in every word of one syllable, and in every syllablte 
 of words in which it precedes the letter &, not sounded, 
 as in dee, bdse, else, dilce, fice, rSce, hilste, w^ste ; in 
 short, in every word and syllable of similar construction ; 
 and, in every vford of more than one syllable, in which 
 it ends the syllable, with the accent upon it, as in ma- 
 tron, pdtron, Sdtan, Ddthan ; &c., except the words 
 f3,ther, Mpti, mimS., and perhaps a few others. 
 
 Mr. Walker has given the preceding note on this 
 letter, and its sounds ; and, his reasonings, as to its 
 being called k, in the alphabet, rest particularly on the 
 facts, that, in va-t numbers of words, and syllables, it is 
 pronounced as we have both stated ; but, notwithstand- 
 ing these facts, he has not proved how it happened, 
 that the Saxons, or English, came to call it I, or decide 
 that it should be so pronounced, and not S,, as the Irish 
 used to call it ; and, as many of them continue to call 
 it, not only in the alphabet, but, whenever it ends 'a 
 
svllable, with the accent upon it, as in pil'tron, mi'tion ; 
 or, IS the Scotch used to pronounce it, as in Si'tan, 
 sA ired, li'ity, according to Air. Walker's instances, as 
 here taken from his note. For the fact of its being 
 calU'd k, by the English, in repeating the alphabet, he 
 is totally unable to account ; and, notwithstsmding his 
 assertion that " volumes might be filled with the erudi- 
 tion that has been lavished on this letter alone," eru- 
 dition by the way, so profound, that, it has left the 
 question in " darkness visible ;" I apprehend that, the 
 oai'kness will never be dispersed ; for, there is no proof 
 on which to rest anything like a conclusion ; or, to 
 show, that, our Saxon grammarians, or, changing the 
 name, our English, after them, or, the mass of the 
 people, adopted the name, and the general sound of it 
 in the instances already given, from the Celtic (pro- 
 nounced keltic) language of the Britons, whom they 
 conquered, and rooted out ; and still less reason is there 
 to suppose, that they adopted the name from the lan- 
 guage of their Norman conquerors, from any affection 
 they had for them, or knowledge of their language, in 
 the pronunciation of whose alphabet, the letter is pro- 
 nounced i, as in our word 4'11. 
 
 By the same analogy of pronunciation, as when the 
 accent is on the letter 4 in words of one syllable, or in 
 syllables in which e ends the syllable ; and in words of 
 more than one syllable, the letter e, as in e've, is always 
 pronounced 6, as in rd're, cS're, me're, the'me, sche'me, 
 adhS're, cohere, dS'ity, be'ing, ge'nius. In short, when- 
 ever the accent is upon the letter c, according to the 
 Saxon, or English practice of pronouncing the syllables, 
 and words containing the letter, it is generally sounded 
 ^, as a, in similar situations, is sounded d ; and, from 
 whatever cause it originated, that, our ancestors came 
 to pronounce them so, in the situations which have 
 been mentioned, instead of pronouncing the one i, as 
 in father, or 4, as in 411, and the other e as in 6ve, and 
 not h. as in there, pronounced th4re; there can be little 
 doubt, that, the general rec-'rrence of the sounds d, in 
 ice, and &, in eve, was th- 'eason, why, in naming 
 them in the alphabet, and, in -•jelling, they pronounced 
 them d and e. 
 
 It is a trifle ; but, a trifle necessary to notice, that, 
 in the words which Mr. Walker gives, as proofs of his 
 observations on the different sounds d, 4, 4, which A re- 
 presents, he unwittingly furnishes two striking proofs 
 of the inaccuracy ol his ear, both as to the sound of 
 letters, and the division of words into syllables ; for, 
 look at his proof of the Irish manner of pronouncing 4, 
 and, it will be perceived that he marks it by adding the 
 mark of aspiration to the vowel a, thus, ah, as if he 
 couid not have represented it, as a vowel, by the 4 
 alone with his figure of 2 over it, to denote its sound as 
 in f4r, in his key line ; for, the fact is, that the Irish 
 do not add an aspiration to the vowel in pronouncing 
 the words, parent, papal, taper, fatal, as he has marked 
 them thus, pah-rent, pah-pal, tah-per, fah-tal ; and 
 again in Ah-mer-i-cah ; and though the fact must be 
 admittwi, that, the mass of the poorer orders of Irish- 
 men, pronounce parent, fatal, papal, with the sound of 
 & in 4rt, I do not think that, any person has ever heard 
 the, most ignorant of them pronounce the word taper as 
 either t4h-per, or t4-per. The cause perhaps is, that, 
 having little use for tapers, the word has not yet been 
 introduced among them, the light of a turf fire, 
 or of a rush dipped in grease, generally serving 
 them instead of the luxury of candles, or tapers. 
 The word master, which he gives as an excep- 
 tion to the rule, that the sound of 4 is heard, except 
 in two or three instances, when it ends a syllable with 
 the accent upon it, he divides thus, ma-ster. Now I 
 would appeal to the ear, even of a child, to say, whether 
 the word master properly pronounced, is, or is not, thus 
 divided m4's-ter, even by the most negligent speakers, 
 whether English, Irish, or Scotch ; and I can, from the 
 most accurate observation, say that, however vulgarly, 
 or, disagreeably, in point of intonation, and accent, 
 some of the Irish, or Scotch, may pronounce their 
 words, they less change or omit the sounds of the vowels 
 (I speak of well-educated ladies and gentlemen), iiid 
 pronounce their words more distinctly, without adding, 
 or leaving out, or changing, the sounds of consonants, 
 than numbers of ihe provincial English ; and those who 
 
 may be properly called cockneys in London. I here 
 leave Mr. Walker, and his note, to the judgment of the 
 reader ; and proceed to mal;e an observation, or two^ 
 upon what I find in Mr. Todd's Johnson's Dictionary, on 
 the sounds of the letter A ; to which I refer the reader. 
 
 The dictionary says, " A, has, in the English lan- 
 guage, regularly only two sounds, peculiar to itself; a 
 short, and a long one ; all other sounds being irregular ; 
 and those are various, according to its combination with 
 other letters. The broad sound resembling that of the 
 German a, is found in many of our monosyllables, as 
 all, wall, malt, salt, in which a is pronounced as au in 
 cause, or aw in law. A open, not unlike the a of the 
 Italians, is found, Dr. Johnson says, in father, rather, 
 and more obscurely in fancy, fast, &c. This pronun- 
 ciation is indeed found in rath, but not in its derivative 
 rather, the a of which is usually uttered as in fancy." 
 To this representation of the sounds of the letter a, so 
 far, my observations are, 1st, that Mr. Todd leaves his 
 reader to guess that, the " regular two sounds" are, 4, 
 in 4'rt, and 4 in at', the only difference between which 
 is, that the accent on the 4 in 4'rt marks the quantity of 
 the sound as long ; whereas, being on the consonant in 
 at', it marks it as short ; the act of carrying the impetus 
 of the voice to the consonant, reducing the vowel to a 
 short quantity. 
 
 Proceeding in his observation on the sounds of the 
 letters, he quotes the opinion of Dr. Johnson, insteeid 
 of pointing them out himself; and exemplifying them 
 by the accuracy of his own ear. Now the sound 4, is 
 found both in father, and rather, if the accent be laid on 
 the a, sounded 4, and not d, as some persons sound it, 
 rd'ther ; and, if the word be divided as rath-er, laying 
 the accent on the consonant th', the sound is still the 
 same, only reduced to a short quantity. The sound is 
 also long, in fd'st, but short in fan'cy ; and, unless the 
 difference in quantity constitutes obscurity, there is no 
 more obscurity in the 4 in fan'cy, than in f4'ther ; and, 
 there cannot be any in fa'st, simply, because, the vowel 
 is as long, and as full, in this word, as in fa'ther ; and 
 the same diflference of quantity is observable in r4'th, 
 and rath'er, and fan'cy, the sound being the same, but, 
 the difl"erence in the pronunciation lying in the quan- 
 tity ; so that, Mr. Todd's implied refutation of the cor- 
 rectness of Dr. Johnson's examples, of the sound of 4, 
 in the four words, fa'ther, r4th'er, fan'cy, fa'st, is not 
 correct ; and, only proves that, his ear was not correct, 
 any more than Dr. Johnson's; nor more capable of 
 finding out what it was that constituted, what they 
 term obscurity, in the very same characteristic soimcl, 
 in diflferent words. Of this he gives demonstrative 
 proofs in saying, '* A, is also, in some words transient,- 
 and unobserved, as in the last sj'Uables of carriage, and 
 marriage ;" (he should have said the last syllable, for, 
 he refers to the last syllable in each ; and not to any 
 other) " in others, less faintly sounded, as in those of 
 captain and chsplain, and, in some obscurely uttered, ais 
 in collar, jocular." To this, the counter observations 
 are, the a in age, the last syllable in both words, may 
 have been transient to, the writer's eye, but, could not 
 have been unobserved by it, if he looked at the words ; 
 but, with respect to the sound of the letter, that could 
 neither be transient, nor unobserved, for this plain rea- 
 son, that, the ear perceives no such sound in the usual 
 pronunciation of the words, which I here exhibit, re- 
 ferring to both eye, and ear, according to the usual di- 
 vision of them into syllables, car^riage, mar-riage, or, 
 as I might divide them nearer to the pronunciation, 
 carr-iage, marr-iage ; or, still more exactly, and in fact 
 correctly, according to my method, throughout the fol- 
 lowing dictionary, that, of not exhibiting any letter to 
 the eye, for which the sound is not heard in the actual 
 pronunciation of every syllable, and word ; kar-ij, m4r- 
 ij ; the demonstrative fact being, that, m, a, r, with the 
 accent on the r', are the only soimds heard in the first 
 syllable ; !, j, the only sounds heard in the latter, m4r-5j ; 
 the same in the pronunciation of carriage, k4r-ij, k, 4, r', 
 !, j, the three simple sounds heard in the first syllable ; 
 the short sound i, represented by i, and the compound 
 ,'ound dzii, represented by j, the only sounds heard in 
 tne latter sylkble ; as also in the latter syllable of the for- 
 mer — "less faintly sounded, (says he, ) as in captain, chap- 
 lain — obscurely uttered in some, as in collar, jocular."

Here is a discovery indeed ! nay, here are two dis- 
 coveries ; the one, of a less faintly sounded in the words 
 captain and chaplain, than in marriage and carriage ; 
 and the other, of the same sound a, obscurely uttered, 
 as in collar, and cellar. Obscurely and faintly enough 
 in all reason may the sound be said to strike upon the 
 imagination, not the ear, in the pronunciation of the 
 four words, for, though the latter syllable in captain, 
 chaplain, collar, and the last in jocular, contains the 
 letter §,, it contains it, as a sleeping partner, in the form 
 of the whole word. It does not contain the sound i, or 
 & for which It may have been intended to stand in the 
 pronunciation of the syllables ; but, in place of either i, 
 or S., the short sound almost always represented by i, is 
 substituted in its place, in the actual pronunciation of 
 captain, and ch*aplain, which is this, tshap-lin, kap-t!n ; 
 and in cellar, jocular, the short sound represented by ^ 
 is substituted, the syllable being pronounced ^r, kW-^r, 
 Sfcl-^r, only one 1, also, being sounded in each. If in- 
 deed the syllables be pedantically divided, and pro- 
 nounced thus, tshlp-li'n, kap-ti'n, kil-lar', sSl-lar', 
 then indeed the sound k would be heard, in the former 
 two words, instead of the sound k, which is never heard 
 in the pronunciation of the most pedantic stickler for 
 sounding every letter that appears in a word ; and, the 
 sound i, would be heard in pronouncing sel-lS,r, k61-lar ; 
 but, this constrained pronunciation is not the accus- 
 tomed one, either in familiar discourse, or, in public 
 speaking ; and, the man who would attempt to intro- 
 duce it would be justly ridiculed as an unpleasant speaker, 
 and a pedant. 
 
 The author of " Virginius, whose imagination was 
 corrected by sound judgment, with equal beauty, and 
 accuracy of thought, makes Virginius, in his delirium, 
 in calling for his daugnter, whom he had killed, to 
 save her from falling into the hands of Appius Claudius, 
 recollect the softness, and sweetness, of her voice, and, 
 imagining he hears the sound of her voice, say, 
 
 " Is it a voice, or nothing answers me ? 
 I hear a sound so fine^ — there's nothing lives 
 'Twixt it and silence. Such a slender one 
 I've heard, when I have talk'd with her in fancy ! 
 A phantom sound !" 
 
 Now Virginius's reasoning in his delirium of mind is 
 perfectly natural and consistent with the unbidden train 
 of ideas, which madmen, or persons, whose imaginations 
 are disordered, in fever, or sleep, spontaneously pour 
 forth from some master thoughts which suddenly rise 
 up and dart across the mind ; as every body knows who 
 has taken a particular interest, in such a person ; and 
 the truth, delicacy, and beauty of the recollection, rest 
 upon the expression — 
 
 " I hear a sound so fine — ^there's nothing lives 
 'Twixt it and silence"— 
 
 which sound may actually exist, as proceeding from 
 the rustling of trees, or the water of a rivulet at 
 a distance ; and not merely as, " A phantom sound," 
 as Virginius's imagination unconsciously speaks of 
 it. But, here is a gentleman, for I know not whe- 
 ther, in the dictionary which lies before me, I am 
 speaking of Mr. Todd, or Mr. Chalmers, in full pos- 
 session of his reasoning faculties, and the sense of hear- 
 ing, and who, having just set his foot upon the first 
 step of the temple of literary knowledge, undertakes, by 
 the sense of seeing, to prove to those who arc about to 
 enter it with him, that certain words, which are in- 
 scribed on its portal, contain, in their last syllable, a 
 certain vowel character, which usually represents three 
 different sounds ; and that, one of those sounds, which 
 he names, is heard in the pronunciation of those sylla- 
 bles; when, in fact, that sound is not heard in the 
 usual pronunciation of any one of them. A, or an, is 
 used, and so pronounced us the singular article, and 
 placed before nouns signifying only one of a kind, or 
 sort ; or, a whole class, or species of persons, places, or 
 things ; and when it precedes a noun singly, or, as 
 words are arranged in sentences, it is governed, in its 
 use, both in speech and writing, by the first sound that 
 is heard in the word that follows it ; and is pronounced 
 and written simply S, or has the letter n added to it, as 
 a man, a hone, an hostler, an egg, an ear, an eye, on 
 16 
 
 hour, an honest man, a woman, a year, a history, an 
 honourable woman ; an amiable woman ; a captain ; 
 a year, an abundant year, a very prosperous year. 
 
 From these examples it will appear that, in point of 
 sound, both in speaking, and writing, it is governed by 
 the sound of the first letter that appears, or rather sound 
 that is heard, in the word which immediately follows it 
 in a phrase, or sentence ; that is, if the sound be a 
 vowel, except the vowels y, w, and the full diphthong 
 sound of u, it is pronounced and written an ; so that, 
 when any word intervenes between it and the noun 
 with which it is grammatically connected, it is invaria- 
 bly governed by the first sound in that word. If the 
 word begin with a vowel sound, except y and w, it is 
 written an. If it begin with a consonant, it is written 
 a. If it begin with h, not sounded, it is written an. 
 If it begin with h sounded, it is written a, unless the 
 accent be on the second syllable. 
 
 Examples : an awl ; an arm ; an ace ; an ear ; an 
 ore ; an ankle ; an egg ; an eye ; an inkhorn , an uncle. 
 A boy ; a day ; a fire ; a girl ; a kite ; a lute ; a man ; 
 a nail ; a pear ; a queen ; a rose ; a slave ; a task ; a 
 view ; a wave ; a year ; a zone. A sharp awl ; a 
 strong arm ; a lucky ace ; a nice ear ; a rich ore ; a 
 small ankle ; a fresh egg ; a glass inkstand ; a kind 
 uncle. An idle boy ; an inclement day ; an alarming 
 fire ; an industrious girl ; an ugly kite ; an agreeable 
 lute ; an unostentatious man ; an iron nail ; an early 
 pear ; an amiable queen ; an odoriferous rose ; an in- 
 carcerated slave ; an unconscionable task ; an agreeable 
 view ; an overwhelming wave ; an unfortunate year ; 
 an unhealthy zone. A horse ; a huntsman ; a history. 
 
 Finally ; if the h be sounded, and the accent is on 
 the second syllable, the article an should be used, as an 
 historian, an historical writer. Before words beginning 
 with the diphthong sound of i, ou, oi, oy, it is written 
 and pronounced an ; as, an ice-house ; an ounce ; an 
 oil-bottle ; an oyster. Before the diphthongs begin- 
 ning with w, that is, 8 as in d8, it is written and pro- 
 nounced a ; as, a watch ; a wasp ; a wan cheek ; a 
 wave ; a week ; a wove handkerchief ; a diseased 
 womb ; a wet day ; a witty saying. Before the diph- 
 thongs beginning with y, that is, ^ ; it is also written 
 and pronounced a ; as, a year ; a yawl ; a yard ; a yare 
 feat ; a yoke ; a young lady ; a youth. 
 
 It may be asked, why do not the words which begin 
 with y and w, and the full sound of u, admit the article 
 an, to be used before them, as well as before words 
 commencing with the sounds of any of the other vowels, 
 or, rather, the marks for vowels ? To this the answer 
 is, because, these sounds e, and 8, f, -v^, unite with the 
 vowels which follow them, and form part of a diphthong 
 sound, in every word or syllable which they commence ; 
 and there would be some difBculty in first moving the 
 organs of speech, from the contact of the flattened part 
 of the end of the tongue, to the termination of the pa- 
 late, above the upper gums, in sounding n, and then 
 bringing them to the positions, and movements neces- 
 sary to produce the united vowels in such words, as 
 every person will perceive, who will take the trouble to 
 say an word, an year, an useful thing, the letter u in 
 the word useful representing a diphthong composed of 
 the sounds e and 5, 58, u. For a contrary reason the 
 diphthongs beginning with k in ill, as M, the sounds 
 which produce i, and kf>, and i^, as in 6flnce, 6'^S■1, 6i1, 
 i'ce, do not admit the article a, to be sounded before 
 them, but the article an ; because, the action of the 
 voice, and its movement in sounding ie and i6, passes 
 with perfect ease from the hollow of the mouth where 
 it commences, to the front of it, where it terminates ; 
 and follows the sound of n, so smoothly, that the arti- 
 cle an, and whatever w ord, or syllable possesses those 
 diphthongs, commencing with a, and ending with e, 
 or 8, act with a perfect euphony ; as, an ounce, an owl, 
 an ice, an idle boy, an oil-skin cap, an oyster. 
 
 By mistake, I suppose, Chalmers's abridged edition o 
 Todd's .Johnson, gives the word habitual in the phrase 
 " an habitual practice," as an example in which an is 
 placed before a silent h. Now, every person must per- 
 ceive that, in general, the h is sounded, in the word ha- 
 bitual, the proper pronunciation of which is h3,-bit-u-ill ; 
 and I say that it is an easier articulation to say, an ha- 
 bitual, than a habitual.

 either & or 6. The nearest approach that can be 
 made to its sound is, to push the lips out to a point, 
 and sound iS, and running the L rapidly into 6. But, 
 after all, as we have no such sound, and I cannot 
 speak by letters, the best way of all, as Yorick would 
 say, will be, for an Englishman, Scotsman, or Irish- 
 man, to get the assistance of a Frenchman, or rather, 
 a French lady, to assist him to master the sound ; for, 
 he must have a very obtuse ear indeed that a French 
 lady's tongue would not penetrate. Once for aU, I 
 have to observe, that, to a number of French words, 
 and very sweet and expressive ones, that we have in- 
 troduced into our language, I have endeavoured, as 
 nearly as I can, to attach the French pronunciation.

 I, i', or 4.6, n. Is in English considered both as a 
 vowel and consonant — Johnson. 15y what con- 
 tact of the organs is the consonant sound produced ? 
 — J.K. 
 
 I, vowel, has a long sound, as fine, thine, which is 
 usually marked by an e final ; and a short sound, as 
 fin, thin. Prefixed to e, it makes a diphthong of the 
 same sound with the soft i, or double e, ee : thus, 
 Jield, yield, are spoken asfeeld, yeeld; except /r/'wiJ, 
 which is spoken /renri. Subjoined to a ore, it makes 
 them long, as fuil, neigh ; and to o, makes a mingled 
 sound, which approaches to the notion of a diphthong, 
 as oil, coin. The sound of i before another i, and at 
 the end of a word, is always expressed by y — Johnson. 
 There is only one vowel sound in field, fc'ld. " Oi, 
 352 
 
 oil, coin, approaches to the notion of a diphtnong." 
 — Johnson. It does not "approach the notion;" but 
 it touches the sound, " of a dipththong," for it is ac-

 in order to avoid the double sound of sh in the same 
 word, I would prefer the sound of the s, in the pro- 
 nunciation of all, as I have done in a number of other 
 words ; but the above words are in so common, every- 
 day use, that I fear the inveteracy of custom could not 
 be overcome by any showing of mine, that the sound 
 of the s is easier to the organs, and more agreeable to 
 the ear ; and therefore I have admitted the sh, because 
 that, in my corrections, I war not so much with 
 general custom, as with absolute vulgarity, absurdity, 
 and the pedantry of distorting words, such as edu- 
 cate, from the simplicity of the spelling, by substi- 
 tuting a difficult compound sound, formed of a conso- 
 nant and a single vowel, in the place of a diphthong 
 of the most striking euphony, which, with perfect 
 ease to the organs of articulation, follows the sound 
 of d, making the pronunciation of the whole word 
 pleasing to the ear, without any alteration of the letter

 s. 
 
 S, h^. Has in English the same hissing sound as in other 
 languages, and unhappily prevails in so many of our 
 words that it produces in the ear of a foreigner a con- 
 tinued sibilation. In the beginning of words it has 
 invariably its natural and genuine sound : in the 
 middle it is sometimes uttered with a stronger appulse 
 of the tongue to the palate, like z ; as rose, roseate, 
 tost/, osier, nosel, resident, busy, business. It some- 
 times keeps its natural sound; as loose, designatioti. 
 In the end of monosyllables it is sometimes s, as in this: 
 and sometimes z, as in as, lias ; and generally where es 
 stands in verbs for eth, as gives.' — Walker. The above 
 assertion of a " continued sibilation " is a very great 
 mistake, arising from the grossest ignorance of the 
 actual pronunciation of our words, and of pronuncia- 
 tion in general, as a part of every language ; and the 
 absolute fact is, that the English language does not 
 abound so much in the sound of s, as either the Greek 
 or Roman ; and that, in hundi-eds of syllables, in 
 which foreigners suppose it to be sounded s, it is 
 really sounded z. Beside this, in the third person 
 singular, of every verb, it is sounded z ; and in the 
 double s, in great numbers of syllables it is sounded 
 ezh, or esh, and the single s also, as in vision, de- 
 cision, salesman, vtzh^fln, de-sizh-tin, sdlzmiln, and 
 in the plurals of almost all nouns, it is sounded 
 z. Reader, try thousands of plurals. It is con- 
 trary to all harmony, and the rules of accent ; it 
 is in fact barbarous in articulation, to dwell upon the 
 sound of any consonant, when it commences a word, 
 for this simple reason, that no consonant, nor union 
 of consonants, as in strength', stri've, grind, ground', at 
 the commencement of a syllable, can be dwelt on 
 without disgusting a nice, and judicious musical car ; 
 because it, or t/iey. cannot be accented ; the consonant, 
 invariably, throughout our nervous, beautifully con- 
 structed language, always ending the syllable. How- 
 ever, therefore, the admirers of a late celebrated actor 
 may have been pleased with his invariably grinding 
 out such consonants, I hesitate not to say, in the very 
 teeth of ignorance of verbal criticism, that the cus- 
 tom was barbarous in the extreme ; and that a Greek, 
 or Roman audience, would 1 ave hissed him off the 
 stage, as Demosthenes was linscd till he reformed bis 
 
 pronunciation. The s, therefore, or any other con- 
 sonant, or combination of consonants, is never dwelt 
 on by good English speakers when it begins a word ; 
 and, when it is followed by any vowel, or diphthong, 
 it flows sweetly into that vowel, or diphthong, as if it 
 were itself a vowel, as in s4.1t, s>^det', siting', sv^im', 
 sVif^'ep, s^i'rm, &c. — J. K.

 evincing a io;al ignorance of the very nature and powers 
 of the simple sounds, and letters as their signs, and of 
 the actual reason for calling some semivowels, some 
 mutes, Ike. The simple fact is, that the semivowels are 
 so called, in contradistinction to the mutes, because the 
 organs can be kept together, almost at pleasure, in 
 pronouncing them, as, ef, el, em, en, er, es, ez, esh, 
 ezh, ing, esh, eth ; whereas, in pronouncing the mutes, 
 as ob, ed, eg, ek, ep, et, the organs cannot be kept 
 together, at pleasure ; and in pronouncing three of 
 them, ek, ep, et, they cannot be kept together for the 
 smallest space of time ; and the attempt to prolong 
 their sounds by keeping the organs together, pro- 
 duces absolute silence. The semivowels are therefore 
 so called, as comparing them v;ith the long vowels,

 W, dflbl-u, n, is a letter of which the form is not to be 
 found in the alphabets of the learned languages ; 
 though it is not improbable that by our w is expressed 
 the sound of the Roman v, and the Eolick/. Both 
 the form and sound are excluded from the languages 
 
 derived from theLatin Todd's Johnson. Webster has 
 
 taken from Mr. Sheridan the correct knowledge of 
 the sound of the letter w, that it always marks a 
 vowel sound. Its name has no connexion with its 
 
 sound J. K.

 the verb as a verb transitive, vt., and not at all as at 
 active, intransitive verb. vi. Dr. Johnson's Dii;- 
 tionai-y marks it as merely a verb neuter, vn. , an ac- 
 tive intransitive verb. Every verb in language, b; 
 the way, is an active verb, except the verb to he 
 which, in every language, is the only neuter, or in- 
 transitive verb. Both explain it as a verb neuter,unle^; 
 that, by implication, we are to take the paiticipli 
 whizzing, in the line which Dr. Webster gives froii 
 Dryden, in an active sense, as governing the won 
 Air, understood as the verb cut governs " tin 
 liquid way" — 
 
 " It flew, and whizzing, cut the liquid way" — 
 It flew, and whizzing (the air), cut the liquid way ;— 
 which would destroy the measure of the verse, ever; 
 line in poetry being a verse. I have presumed t( 
 give the verb an active, transitive significatior , ti:

 [Whoever was the author of this additional and sati- 
 rical no-explanation of the term " Worm," as ap- 
 plied to a dog, he has only shown his own absurdity, 
 by the positive assertions he has made of the non-ex- 
 istence of an operation of which he is totally ignorant. 
 The fact is, that there is a round, white, soft nerve, 
 of about an inch and nearly a half long, that lies not 
 far from the point of the under part of a dog's tongue, 
 which the compiler of this dictionary has often re- 
 moved ; and the positive effect of which removal is, 
 that though the dog may be bitten by a mad dog, he 
 will not bite any person ; but I am not certain whe- 
 ther his being wormed, as it is called, will prevent 
 him from going mad. Take a puppy, or a small dog, 
 between your knees, — the back of his head must of 
 course be undermost ; and take firm hold of the point 
 of his tongue with a towel, to prevent the tongue 
 from slipping through your fingers ; then, with a 
 sharp pointed penknife, or a lancet, make a small 
 longitudinal incision of the skin that lies over th<! 
 nerve, sufficient to uncover it, and allow you to im- 
 mediately put a wire, or single prong fork, crosswise

 There is a peculiar, and fine-sounding diphthong, terminating a number of Hebrew wovds, which I have 
 marked by uniting in the middle, and last syllable of many words, the vowels ii— the sounds being ki—ki, 
 ending in fact in ai. The English have not such a diphthong. 
 
 The obstacles to ascertaining the true pronunciation of the Scripture Proper Names are these. First, 
 it is not known whether the Bible is written in Hebrew, Chaldee, or a dialect formed from both. Secondly, 
 the Jews themselves confess that they know not the true power of the letters ; and that, the ancient pronun- 
 ciation is lost. Thirdly, the learned generally acknowledge one letter to be doubtful, and differ about others. 
 Fourthly, many of the Scripture Names have been so perverted to suit the Latin, or Greek orthography, that 
 it is useless to give the true pronunciation even when known : as, for instance, Shomeron, (now written 
 Samaria, and generally pronounced, by the clergy, Sama'ria, as I have accented it on the letter a, but, by 
 some, Samari'a, with the acent on the i,) and many others. Amidst these difficulties, I have contented 
 myself with following the common usage of well-educated men ; and any Hebrew scholar who wishes to be 
 singular can follow his own fancies ; and, under these circumstances, easily defend them. 
 
 It is to be observed, that the Ancients never laid an accent on a consonant, upon which their acute, 
 grave, and circumflex, could not possibly fall. But we, in consequence of the ancient pronunciation beir^ 
 almost entirely lost, frequently accent the consonants, in our pronunciation of Latin and Greek, agreeablv 
 to the nature of our own accent ; to which we frequently make the Latin and Greek conform.
