PREFACE.

IN 1879 the publishers of Harpers' Latin Dictionary requested me to construct from it m
smaller work, better adapted to the use of schools. In the conviction that a mere abridgment
would not supply the wants of pupils, I resolved to compile an independent Dictionary, which
should include all that a student needs, after acquiring the elements of Grammar, for the inter-
pretation of the Latin authors commonly read in schools, and for correct expression in Latin, to
the extent of the vocabulary of these authors. In forming the detailed plan for this purpose, it
seemed desirable in many respects to deviate from the traditional practice in such works ; but)
unwilling to take such an important step on an individual opinion, I determined to submit the
whole subject to the judgment of several eminent scholars and successful teachers, whose advice
would be a safe guide. Accordingly, in April, 1881, the plan of the Dictionary, as then enter-
tained, was printed in a private circular, with a number of proof -pages to illustrate it, and was
laid before thirty of the gentlemen supposed to be most competent to improve it.

Besides the general request for suggestions and criticisms, particular attention was called to
the following questions : 1. Can the list of authors be extended or shortened to advantage ?
2. To what degree of fulness should the references be given ? 3. Should the late inventions, the
so-called letters j, v, for consonantal t, u, be recognized in the alphabet ? 4. Shall only long
vowels have the mark of quantity ? 5. Shall the assimilation of consonants in prepositions com-
pounded with verbs be restricted to classical usage, or follow that of the majority of school-texts !
6. Shall the principal roots of the language find a place, either in the vocabulary, or in a separate
list ? And shall an attempt be made to indicate the structure of stems ? Other questions related
to further particulars under these heads, or to the internal arrangement of articles, to the classifica-
tion of meanings and constructions, and to the English-Latin Index which it is proposed to add
hereafter.

The answers were most instructive. Nearly every scholar appealed to gave the inquiries care-
ful and thorough consideration, and freely communicated his views ; while, in several instances,
new suggestions were made, of substantial value in improving the method of the work. Among
those whose ripe scholarship and great experience in teaching were thus generously contributed
to the plan, were Professors George M. Lane, Frederick D. Allen, and Charles R. Lanman, of Har-
vard College, C. S. Harrington of the Wesleyan University, Albert Harkness of Brown University,
Thomas A. Thacher and Tracy Peck of Yale College, Henry Drisler and Charles Short of Columbia
College, B. L. Gildersleeve and Charles D. Morris of the Johns Hopkins University, Austin Stick-
ney, John S. White, James H. Morse, and E. G. Sihler of New York, Clement L. Smith of Cambridge,
Moses Merrill of the Boston Latin School, W. C. Collar of the Roxbury Latin School, John Tetlow
of the Girls' Latin School in Boston, Gustav Fischer of New Brunswick, W. Gordon McCabe of

Petersburg, Virginia, and George K. Bartholomew of Cincinnati. .While no one of them is re-
sponsible for any feature of the book, least of all for its errors of judgment and defects of
scholarship, each of them is gratefully remembered by the author as having rendered valuable as-
sistance in solving the difficulties and diminishing the defects of its plan.

The first gentleman named above, Professor Lane, has not only favored me with invaluable
advice and suggestions in planning the book, and permitted me, as difficult questions of detail
arose, to call upon him for aid in their solution, but has read over most of the proof-sheets before
casting, correcting their errors and enriching them by additions, to such an extent that no acknowl-
edgment which this Preface can contain will adequately express the indebtedness of the work to
him. If it shall be found, within its prescribed limits, to have attained in any degree that fulness,
that minute accuracy, and that correspondence with the ripest scholarship and the most perfect
methods of instruction which are its aims, the result is largely due to his counsel and assistance.

This book is not an abridgment of any larger work, nor is it a Dictionary of the Latin Lan-
guage. It is designed to explain every word or phrase in Latin books commonly read in schools,
including the entire works of Terence, Caesar, Cicero, Livy, Nepos, Vergil, Horace, Ovid, Juvenal,
Phaedrus, and Curtius, the Catiline and Jugurtha of Sallust, and the Germania and Agricola of
Tacitus. A few words, found in such extracts of Floras, Eutropius, and Justinus, as ace some-
times included in elementary readers, have been added. But the additional words necessary to
complete the vocabulary of such authors as Plautus, Lucretius, Catullus, Cornificius, Tibullus,
Propertius, Varro, Quintilian, Martial, Tacitus (in his larger works), Cato, Pliny the Elder, Pliny
the Younger, Seneca, Lucan, Statius, and others, who, for various reasons, are rarely read, except
by special students, or in an advanced course, are omitted. The reader of these authors must be
referred to a larger work. Within the limits of the literature to which reference is made, it is
intended to give such an account of each word as shall make it completely intelligible in every
passage in which it occurs, by exhibiting first its original meaning, and then the various modifica-
tions which that meaning suffered in usage, and the phrases in which association with other words
affected it. The life of a language is largely in the construction and use of its current phrases,
and, with a given vocabulary, the most useful Dictionary is that which most readily familiarizes
the student with these. Every word or phrase which is cited, without comment, from the prose
of the best period, may be accepted by the student as a model for use or imitation. Full refer-
ences have been given, in order that the authority for each expression may be known ; but, as far
as possible, the citations have been drawn from the books most commonly read, in order that the
explanations given may be available to pupils in the earliest parts of their course. Thus illustra-
tions from Caesar's Gallic War, from the orations of Cicero against Catiline, and from the first
books of Vergil's Aeneid, have been preferred to any others, wherever they serve the immediate
purpose.

The treatment of proper names has been governed by considerations of practical utility. A
general Dictionary should strictly contain only those which demand explanation as part of the
language, treating them as word-forms. But it is convenient for the student to find, in the book
to which he most constantly refers, enough information on every word to make its use intelligi-
ble. The names of persons and places, therefore, and the adjectives derived from them, which
occur in texts frequently read in schools, have been placed in the vocabulary and very briefly
explained. In this respect, especial attention has been given to Caesar's Gallic War, Cicero's

PREFACE. Til

Select Orations (Halm), Laelius and Cato Maior, the first five books of Livy, with the twenty-first,
twenty-second, and twenty-third, Nepos, Vergil, Horace, Terence, Juvenal, the Metamorphoses of
Ovid, and the Germania and Agricola of Tacitus. For details of biography, history, mythology,
and geography, however, reference must be made to special dictionaries or treatises. In the
articles relating to government, trade, houses, money, time, military organization, dress, etc., such
particulars as are necessary for an intelligent reading of the authors referred to have been given
as briefly as possible, without attempting to make this in any sense a manual of antiquities.

The orthography adopted follows, in almost every particular, the standard rules of Brarnbach
{Die Neugestaltung der lateinischen Orthographic in ihrem Verhaltniss zur Schule, and Hilfs-
biichlein f iir lateinische Rechtschreibung, translated, under the title ' Aids to Latin Orthography,'
by W. Gordon McCabe). It is substantially that of the best critical texts, differing from them, in-
deed, in but one important point : the use of a distinct sign, V, v, for the Latin U, u, wherever it
has a consonantal power. This sign, a modern invention, is misleading to an English or a German
reader, in that the sound represented (the English initial w) is very different from the English or
the German v ; yet it is found in nearly all school-texts, and is defended by Brambach ; and, in def-
erence to the views of many practical teachers, it is retained here. The student must remember
that the sign V, v, in Latin, is not an independent letter, but represents U, u, when it has lost its
vocalising and has become merely the transitional sound which arose between that vocalism and
a following vowel. He will thus avoid a false pronunciation. In the table of roots this distinc-
tion of signs is, of course, discarded, as confusing. Another modern sign, J, j, in some texts
represents the consonantal or transitional force of I, i, but it has no support in the history of the
language, nor in the authority of the best contemporary scholars. It is appropriated in English
to a sound (j in jet) wholly unlike the consonantal I, i (our y in yet], and thus suggests a perverse
and intolerable pronunciation. The intrusion of it into the Latin alphabet is therefore not recog-
nized in this book.

The long vowels in every word of the vocabulary are carefully distinguished by the usual
mark, as far as they can be ascertained ; including those of final syllables, whose quantity, in
many Dictionaries, is left to be inferred from general rules. Every vowel without this mark is
known or believed to have been short in pronunciation, though several cases remain in which the
quantity of a vowel followed by two consonants is undetermined. For the first time, in any gen-
eral vocabulary of the language, an effort has been made accurately to mark quantities, not for
metrical purposes only, but for pronunciation. It is necessary, therefore, to discriminate between
Jong and short vowels, as well where followed by two or more consonants as elsewhere, although
the syllables in this case are always metrically long. Much labor has been given to this investi-
gation ; but the necessity of the discrimination has but recently been recognized by scholars, and
in many syllables differences of opinion are still found between eminent authorities. I have
relied on the direct testimony of writers who spoke the language, and on the evidence of Greek
transcriptions, where these sources are available. Next to these in value are inferences from the
treatment of the vowels in the Romance languages, from parallel and derivative forms in Latin,
and from comparative etymology. But while the general results are given with confidence that
they will be found trustworthy and useful, many of the details must be regarded as provisional
only.

Most of the teachers consulted advised that the Roots of the language be inserted in the gen-

Till PREFACE.

eral vocabulary in alphabetical order. But with profound respect to their judgment, and with
consequent hesitation, I am compelled to limit that vocabulary to words actually spoken and
written by the Romans. My plan requires, indeed, that only the particular forms of each word for
which there is direct authority shall find an unquestioned place in the list ; and therefore, where
the nominative case of a noun or the present stem of a verb is not actually in use, it is enclosed
in a parenthesis. Where the comparative and superlative forms of an adjective are actually in
use, the fact is expressly noticed. No form is admitted to its regular position save such as may
be unhesitatingly employed by the student in composing a theme upon a classical model. This
rule would be disturbed, if the roots, which in Latin are not words but logical abstractions, the
results of grammatical analysis, were treated as words. But the value of an acquaintance with
them, and of the mental habit of recognizing them and of grouping words under them, is so great,
that it has seemed desirable to present them in a separate Table, which will be found at the end
of the volume. When the form in the vocabulary is followed by brackets, enclosing a root, this
is to be understood merely as a reference to the Table, where the principal words containing the
same Root will be found under it Such a reference does not imply that the word is directly
formed from the Root. It may be a derivative, primary or secondary, from a verb or noun
containing the root. The formation of the word-stem from the Root must be explained by the
Grammar, on whose province this book does not seek to encroach.

In many instances the designation of the Root to which a substantive or an adjective is re-
ferred, is followed by a reference to the paragraph [as, L. . . .] of Professor G. M. Lane's Latin
Grammar, now in preparation, in which the formation is explained. These references will be
found valuable when the Grammar is published, but for the present may be disregarded.

It is due to the publishers of this work to express my deep sense of the energy, intelligence,
and liberality which they have shown at every stage of its progress. While its preparation has
occupied nearly as many years as they at first expected it to fill months, every delay and expense,
which promised to make it more useful, has been welcomed by them, as if the controlling aim of
the house were not commercial success, but to serve the cause of education.

writers, have been Harpers' Latin Dictionary, Georges' Ausfiihrliches lateinisch-deutsches Hand-
worterbuch (7th edition), Forcellini's Lexicon Totius Latinitatis (De Vit's edition), the Latin-
German School Dictionaries of Georges, Heinichen, and Ingerslev, Klotz's Handworterbuch der

Horace the text and indexes of Keller and Holder, the Worterbuch of Koch, and the editions of
Orelli, Dittenburger, Macleane, and Schutz ; for Ovid the text of Merkel, the edition of the Meta-
morphoses by Haupt, those of the Fasti by Paley and by Peter, that of the Heroides by Schuck-
burg, the Worterbuch of Siebelis and Polle, that of Eichert, and the index of Burmann ; for Nepos

che der lateinischen Vocale, etc. (useful but with unsound theories) ; Schmitz, Beitrage zur latei-
nischen Sprache und Litteraturkunde ; L. Miiller, Orthographiae et Prosodiae Latinae Summarium ;

mann's Vergleichende Grammatik der indogermanischen Sprachen, Vol. I. ; Brugmann and Ost-
hoff's Morphologische Untersuchungen ; E. Seelmann's Aussprache des Latein naeh physiologisch-
historischen Grundsatzen ; G. M. Lane's List of Verbs in his (unpublished) Latin Grammar ; and
G-. Grober's Vulgarlateinische Substrate romanischer Worter (A to P) in Wolfflin's Archiv fur la-
teinische Lexicographic und Grammatik.

For historical, geographical, and social facts, constant reference has been made to the Dic-
tionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology, to that of Greek and Roman Geography,
and to that of Greek and Roman Antiquities, all edited by Dr. William Smith ; and to Marquardt
and Mommsen's Handbuch der Romischen Alterthumer.

The books used in the etymological notes and appendix are mentioned in the introduction to
the 4 Table of Roots,' at the end of the volume.

Where a reference consists of figures alone, they denote the book, chapter, and section of Caesar's Bellum Oallicum.

Where a reference is to a book (in italics) without an author's name or initial letter (in Roman type), it is to a
work of Cicero.

Where a reference is made to Horace (H.) without designating the work, it is to his Carmina or Odes; and sim-
ilarly V. alone stands for the Aeneid; O. alone for the Metamorphoses; S. alone for the lugurtha.

* An asterisk before a word means that it is not found in use, but is assumed to account for some derived
form.

[ ] Remarks in brackets relate to etymology. Forms printed in capitals, preceded by R., are references to the
Table of Roots at the end of the volume.

= The sign of equality before a Greek word means that the preceding Latin word is borrowed from that form
in Greek.

(...) A form in the vocabulary is enclosed in a parenthesis to signify, if a substantive in the nominative case,
that it is in use only in other cases ; if a verb, that it is not used in the present system. Forms of incorrect orthog-
raphy, but found in some school-texts, are also enclosed in parenthesis, and a reference is given to the proper form.

A dash in place of the genitive of a substantive, or of one of the principal parts of a verb, indicates that thi
case or this system is not in classical use.
