Synopsis

Excerpt from A Dictionary of the English Language, Vol. 1 of 2: In Which the Words Are Deduced From Their Originals, Explained in Their Different Meanings, and Authorized by the Names of the Writers in Whose Works They Are Found

This coalition of letters feems to unite the founds of the two letters as far as two founds can be united without being def'croy ed, and therefore approaches more nearly than any combination in our tongue to the notion of a diphthong.
