Excerpt from An Elementary Latin Dictionary
In all other respects, the plan of the School Dictionary,' as explained in the Preface to it, has been followed, as far as the smaller size of the present work permits. In a few instances, errors which have been detected in the larger book have been corrected in this; and in two or three words, vowels, which were there left unmarked, are now distinguished as long, on the strength of later researches.
I take pleasure in acknowledging the valuable aid rendered me, in the prep nation of this abridgment, by J. W. Marshall, late Professor of the Latin Language and Literature in Dickinson College, by whom most of the illustrative phrases and passages cited have been selected.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a scholarly exploration of the semantic aspects of Latin grammatical forms which were inherited from the parent language, Proto-Italic, into Latin and then disseminated into Romance languages. It documents the ways in which Latin grammatical morphemes derived from Proto-Italic grammatical morphemes, most of which were originally used to perform functions, later being co-opted for new purposes and functions as Latin diverged from Proto-Italic. The result is a wider understanding of the historical development of Latin grammar and its relationship to the Romance languages.
