Synopsis
Excerpt from A Dictionary of the English Language: With the Pronunciation Greatly Simplified, and on an Entirely New Plan; And With the Addition of Several Thousand Words
The object of this work is to combine the merits of the most popular Dictionaries, especially those of Johnson and Walker, so as to supersede the necessity now felt of having more than one Dictionary even for the ordinary purposes of the English student; and at the same time, in avoiding their defects and redundancies, to preserve the same dimensions as the ordinary octavo abridgement of Johnson.
