The first part of this grammar contains, besides a concise history of the origin 

 and changes of the language, an enumeration of the places where it is at present 

 universally or partially spoken. The section on Sounds and Letters includes a con- 

 densation of the treatise prefixed to Walker's Dictionary, and settles the pronun- 

 ciation of many doubtful words by a reference to the best modern usage. The 

 fundamental principles of the language are elucidated in the sections on Inflexion 

 and Derivation, and on Syntax. 



ELEMENTS OF ENGLISH GRAMMAR, 



FOR THE USE OF LADIES' SCHOOLS.

" Instead of a mre dry classification of words and rules, often diflBcult to be 

 understood, it gives a philosophical view of the whole subject, and yet with so much 

 clearness as to assist the reason no less than the memory. The first part gives the 

 history of our language, and traces its formation from the German tribes who suc- 

 cessively conquered and settled in our island. In the third part, which treats of 

 declension and conjugation, the connexion of these subjects with the rules of 

 euphony is shown in a very lucid and interesting manner. We think this little 

 work will prove a boon to mothers and instructors, and invest with interest a 

 branch of education which has often proved one of the most uninviting steps in the 

 ladder of learning." Quarterly Educational Magazine, No. VIII.

 isolated propositions, sufficient to enable the student of grammar to conceive 

 accurate notions of the functions performed in discourse by the different parts of 

 speech.
