Synopsis
Excerpt from Johnson's Dictionary: Improved by Todd, Abridged for the Use of Schools; With the Addition of Walker's Pronunciation; An Abstract of His Principles of English Pronunciation, With Questions; A Vocabulary of Greek, Latin, and Scripture Proper Names
The Principles of Pronunciation, which follow this Preface, arl selected almost entirely from Walker's Dictionary. It is not common to study these Principles in our schools; and, hence, Dictionaries are very imperfectly understood. The Editor earnestly recommends that they should be studied thoroughly and frequently by every scholar who can understand them; and that teachers should require them to be applied to every lesson from the Dictionary.
