Pàgina 6 - A word of one syllable is termed a monosyllable, a word of two syllables, a dissyllable; a word of three syllables, a trisyllable; and a word of four or more syllables, a polysyllable. All words are either primitive or derivative. A primitive word is that which cannot be reduced to any simpler word in the language; as, man, good, content.
Pàgina 61 - The final consonant of any word accented on the last syllable, if preceded by a single vowel, is doubled before a suffix beginning with a vowel ; as, debar, debarring. Debar is accented on the last syllable ; the final consonant, r, is preceded by a single vowel, and is doubled before the suffix ing.

Farewell, my foes ! My peace with these, my love with those — The bursting tears my heart declare, Farewell, the bonnie banks of Ayr ! THE FAREWELL.
Pàgina 15 - When one letter of an improper diphthong, or of a triphthong, is marked, it is to be taken as representing the sound of the combination, and the letter or letters which are not marked, are to be regarded as silent, as in aim, clean, ceil, people, group, soul, journal, tow, &c.
Pàgina 171 - The chief words in the titles of books should begin with capitals ; as, Pope's Essay on Man.
Pàgina 171 - The Comma represents the shortest pause ; the Semicolon, a pause double that of the comma ; the Colon, double that of the semicolon ; and the Period, double that of the colon.
Pàgina 171 - REFERENCE. 1. The first word of every sentence should begin with a capital letter.
Pàgina 5 - U, after q, and sometimes after g and s, is a consonant equal to w, as in quit (kwif), languid, assuage. A TRIPHTHONG is the union of three vowels in the same syllable; as ieu in lieu. A CONSONANT is a letter that represents a sound of the voice, modified by some interruption from the organs of speech.
Pàgina 58 - Monosyllables ending, as pronounced, with the sound of k, and in which c follows the vowel, have usually k added after the c ; as in black, knock, buck.
