PREFACE. 

OF  the  various  works  that  Iiave  been  published  of  late  yearn  for  the  improoR,' 
ment  of  the  English  language,  none  seems  so  locll  calrulatcd  for  general  utility 
,  as  the  following.  Johnson,  Lowth,  Elphinstone,  Kenrkk,  Sheridan,  J^ares,  anu 
~  others,  have  huleed  acquired  a  lasting  fame.  Hut  some  <f  their  xcorks  are  too 
voluminous,  and,  consequently,  too  dear ;  some  being  very  small,  neccssaribj  ex.- 
ciude  a  vast  number  of  icords ;  and  others  are  too  defective  cither  in  design  or 
execution.  Dr.  Kenrick  was  the  first  irho  placed  j!:':urcs  over  the  vowels  in  or-^ 
der  to  convey  their  sounds.  Mr.  Sheridan  not  only  -placed  figures  over  the  voio- 
eh,  but  m.ore  accurately  erhihited  the  sounds  (f  syUatiles,  by  .tptJling  than  as  they 
are  pronounced.  But  although  Ids  Dictionary  is,  as  Mr.  Ji'alkcr  confesses, 
^^  greatly  superior  to  every  other  that  preceded  it,"  yet  its-  faults  arc  numerous, 
and  such  as  cannot  fail  of  shocking  the  dtdlcM  English  car. 

That  a  book  of  this  kind  should  be  generally  received  as  fiuHlcss,  is  riot  to  he 
expected.  It  is  presumed,  however,  from  t/ie  great  celebrity  <f  this  Dictiojiary, 
tliat  its  defects  are  hcitdcr  numerous  nor  imp-irtant.  Perhaps  no  part  of  it  is 
more  objectionable  than  the  pronunciation  of  lc:ind=^,  sky,  ilisg-iiisc,  £;c.  but  it  is 
supported  by  the  autnorily  of  polite  usage,  and  Mr.  Walker  is  not  the  only  one 
%cho  has  contended  that  it  is  analogical. 

I  To  tlwse  who  may  condemn  the  present  barbarous  accentuation  of  the  word 
i  acceptable,  and,  perhaps,  a  few  others,  we  would  observe,  that  svch  'is  the  vsage 
of  "  the  fashionable  loorld,  who  are  as  proud  to  distinguish  thansclvcs  by  an  oddity 
in  language  cis  in  dress.^'\  It  is  mudi  to  be  regretted  that  those  who  are  the  best 
fudges  of  the  subject,  and,  of  course,  have  the  best  right  to  take  the  lead,  are  not 
'*  bold  enough  to  risk  the  imputation  of  vulgarity, '''\  by  opposing  such  capricious 
innovations  as  either  injure  the  sound  of  the  language,  increase  its  anomalies,  or 
render  Us  pronunciation  more  difficult. 

In  a  few  instances,  where  words  arc  subject  to  different  pronunciation's  in  Eng*- 
land,  and  but  one  in  this- country,  the  latter  only  is  retaincd„in  this  ab-.ndgmenf, 

*  Mr.  Nares,  whom  Mr.  Walker  calls  a  solid  and  ingenious  writer,  say*, 
f  ky-ind  for  kind  is  a  monster  of  pronunciation,  licard  only  on  our  stage.''       Y

INTRODUCTION. 

AS  almost  every  spellinjj-book  contains  I'r.e  names  of  the  letters,  ^vith  their 
several  distinctions,  the  definitions  of  vowels,  consonant-:,  kc.  &c.  and  as  our 
limits  do  not  permit  us  to  treat  at  large  upon  the  elements  of  Jarigunge,  wo  pro- 
ccsdto  the  subject  of 

[Arlkuhtlion,  rxtractrd  fn.'ri  Shcri'in.) 

A  good  articulation  consists  in  giving  every  letter  in  a  syll.ililc  its  due  propor- 
tion of  sound,  according  to  the  most  approved  cuifuni  of  uronouiicing  it ;  and  in 
making-  such  a  distinction  between  the  syllables  of  wliich  wonh-^  are  composed, 
that  the  car  shall,  without  difficulty,  acknowledge  their  numhcr.  am]  perceive, 
at  once,  to  which  s^dlable  each  letter  belongs.  Where  these  points  arc  not  ob- 
served, the  articulation  is  proportionably  defe  ,-,'e. 

Distinctness  of  articulation  depends,  primanly,  upon  being  able  to  form  the 
simple  elements,  or  letters,  by  the  organs  of  s[jccc1i  ;  and,  in  tlie  ncx.t  place,  on 
distinguishing  properly  the  syllables,  of  which  wonis  are  romiH-cd,  from  each 
other;  which  can  be  done  only  by  a  just  pronunt  iati(jn. 

Thechief  source' of  indistinctness  is  too  great  a  prceipilancy  of  utterance.  To 
cure  this,  the  most  effectual  method  will  be,  to  luy  aside  an  hour  everyday  to 
be  employed  in  the  practice  of  reading  aloud,  in  a  manner  much  slower  tlian  is 
necessary.  This  should  be  done  in  the  hearing  of  some  person,  whose  otuce  it 
should  be  to  correct  tlie  reader,  if  at  any  time  lie  sliouM  perceive  him  faUing 
into  his  old  habit- 
There  is  one  cause  of  indistinct  articulation,  which  operates  very  general!}', 
and  which  arises  from  the  very  genius  of  our  torignc  ;  so  tliat.  unless  great  care 
be  taken,  it  is  scarcely  possible  to  escape  being  alhctcd  by  if.  Kvcry  word  in 
our  language,  composed  of  more  syllables  than  one,  hns  orie  s} liable  ae<'ei>ted, 
and  thus  peculiarly  distinguished  from  the  rest ;  and  if  thi=  accented  syllahlc  be 
properly  articulated,  the  word  will  be  sufficienUy  knnwn^  even  though  the  others 
are  sounded  very  confusedly.  This  produces  a  negligence  %vith  regard  to  the 
pronunciation  of  the  other  syllables,  which,  though  it  may  not  render  the  sense 
obscure,  yet  destroys  all  measure  and  proportion,  and,  consequently,  all  harmo- 
ny in  delivery.  This  fault  is  so  general,  that  1  would  recoinmend  it  to  all  who 
are  affected  by  it,  to  pronoimcc  the  unaccented  syllables  more  fully  than  h  pgces- 
«ary,  till  they  are  cured  of  it.

fi  (NTRODUCTION. 

0/  the  nature  (^Accent. 

Accent,  in  its  very  nature,  implies  a  comparison  with  other  syllables  less  for- 
cible ;  hence  we  may  conclude,  that  monosyllables,  properly  speaking,  have  no 
accent;  when  they  are  combined  v.-ith  other  monosyllables,  and  form  a  phrase, 
the  stress  wliich  is  laid  upon  one,  in  preference  to  others,  is  called  emphasis. 
As  emphasis  evidently  points  out  the  most  significant  word  in  a  sentence,  so, 
where  other  reasons  do  not  forbid,  the  accent  always  dwells  with  greatest  force 
on  that  part  of  the  word  which,  from  its  importance,  the  hearer  has  always  the 
greatest  occasion  to  observe ;  and  this  is  necessarily  the  root,  or  body  of  the 
word.  But  as  harmony  of  termination  frequently  attracts  the  accent  from  the 
root  to  the  branches  of  words,  so  the  first  and  most  natural  law  of  accentuation 
seems  to  operate  less  in  fixing  the  stress  than  any  of  the  other.  Our  own  Saxon 
terminations,  indeed,  with  perfect  uniformity,  leave  the  principal  part  of  the 
word  in  quiet  possession  of  what  seems  its  lawful  property ;  but  Latin  and  Greek 
terminations  assume  a  right  of  j-^-eserving  their  original  accent,  and  subject 
many  of  the  words  they  bestow  upon  us  to  their  own  classical  laws. 

Secondary  Accent. 

The  secondary  accent  is  that  stress  wc  may  occasionally  place  upon  another 
syllable,  besides  that  which  has  the  principal  accent,  in  order  to  pronounce  every 
part  of  the  word  more  distinctly,  forcibly,  and  harmoniously.  Thus  this  accent 
is  on  the  first  syllable  of  conversation,  commendation,  &c. 

i  Of  Pronunciation,  {extracted  from  Sheridan.) 

Pronunciation  may  be  considered  in  a  twofold  light;  first,  with  reg'ard  to  pro- 
priety; secondly,  with  regard  to  elegance.  With  rog-ard  to  propriety,  it  is  ne- 
cessary that  each  word  should  have  its  due  accent,  and  each  letter  its  proper 
sound.  This  is  all  that  is  required  in  the  pronunciation  of  words  separately  con- 
sidered. With  respect  to  elegance,  besides  propriety,  proportion  of  sound  also 
is  to  be  taken  in ;  and  this  regards  the  delivery  of  words  as  arranged  in  sentences. 
This  is  the  point  which  I  shall  now  chiefly  consider. 

As  there  has  been  no  method  hitherto  laid  open  of  attaining  even  the  first 
part,  I  mean  the  mere  propriety  of  pronouncing  words,  it  is  no  wonder  that  the 
second,  or  ornamental  part,  has  been  entirely  neglected.  That  which  gives  de- 
light to  the  ear,  in  the  utterance  of  articulate  sounds,  is  founded  uoon  the  paca* 


INTRODUCTION.  vit 

'  principle  as  that  which  pleases  In  musical  composition — I  mean  proportion  ;  and 
I  this  has  a  twofold  reference — to  time,  and  to  sound. 

1  Our  early  notions  of  quantity  are  all  imbibed  from  the  Latin  prosody,  in  which 
I  the  difference  between  long  and  short  syllables  is  established  by  rules  that  have 
no  reference  to  the  ear,  the  sole  competent  judg-e  in  thiscase;  insomuch,  that 
;  syllables  are  called  long-,  which  are  the  shortest  that  can  be  uttered  by  the  or- 
'gans  of  speech;  and  others  are  called  short,  which  take  up  much  longer  time 
in  pronouncing'  than  the  former.  The  mind  thus  taking'  a  bias  under  the  preju- 
dice of  false  rules,  never  after  arrives  at  a  knowledg'e  of  the  true  nature  of 
quantity  ;  and  accordingly  we  find  that  all  attempts  hitherto  to  settle  the  proso- 
dy of  our  language  have  been  vain  and  fruitless. 

In  treating  of  the  simple  elements,  or  letters,  I  have  shown  that  some,  both 
vowels  and  consonants,  are  naturally  short ;  that  is,  whose  sounds  cannot  pos- 
sibly be  prolonged  ;  and  these  are  the.  sounds  e,  i,  and  6,  of  vocal  sounds,  and 
three  pure  mutes,  k,  p,  t,  of  the  consonants,  as  in  the  words  beck',  lio,  ciit. 

I  have  shown,  also,  that  the  sounds  of  all  the  otbei-  vowels,  and  of  the  conso- 
nant semi-vowels,  may  be  prolonged  to  what  degree  we  please  ;  but  at  the  same 
time  it  is  to  be  observed,  that  all  these  may  also  be  reduced  to  a  short  quantity, 
and  are  capable  of  being  uttered  in  as  short  a  space  of  time  as  those  which  are 
naturally  short.  So  that  they  who  speak  of  syllables  as  absolutely  and  in  their 
own  nature  long,  the  common  cant  of  prosodians,  speak  of  a  nonentity  ;  for 
though,  as  I  have  shown,  there  are  syllahh-s  absolutely  short,  vrhicli  cannot  pos- 
sibly be  prolonged  by  any  effort  of  the  speaker,  yet,  it  ii  in  his  [.o'.Tcr  to  shorten 
or  prolong  the  others  to  what  degree  lie  pleases. 

I  have  said  that  in  pronouncing  Avords,  when  the  accent  is  on  the  vowel,  the 
syllable  is  long;  when  on  the  consonant,  short ;  by  which  I  mean  that  the  reader 
should  dwell  on  the  vowel  when  accented,  in  order  to  make  it  long;  and  pass 
rapidly  over  it,  giving  a  smart  stroke  to  the  following  CLinsnnaot,  when  the  ac- 
cent is  on  that.  But  this  rule  is  so  far  from  heinc,'  attcfidcd  to,  ii;at  for  the  most 
part  the  accented  vocal  syllables  are  pronoraccd  in  as  short  a  space  of  time  as 
the  accented  consonants  ;  by  which  means  all  pi'oportional  quantity  in  our  tongue 
is  utterly  destroyed,  and  the  whole  appears  a  rapid  gabble  of  short  syllables. 

To  obviate  this,  I  would  recommend  it  to  every  one  to  pay  a  particular  atten- 
tion to  every  vocal  accented  syllable,  and  to  dwell  upon  it  so  long-  as  to  make  it 
double  the  quantity  of  the  short  ones.  Without  this  '='ieech  must  b"  -^'^'^ved

Syllahicallon. 

DividiTTj  words  into  svllables  is  a  ver}'  different  operation,  according  to  tlu* 
different  ends  proposed  by  it.  The  object  of  syllabication  may  be,  either  tr 
enable  children  to  discover  the  sound  of  words  they  are  unacquainted  with,  or 
to  show  the  etymology  of  a  word,  or  to  exhibit  the  exact  pronunciation  of  it.  As 
the  latter  is  tlio  object  in  this  Dictionary,  the  words  are  divided  in  the  notation 
accordincr  to  Dr.  Lowt!i"s  rule, viz.  "as  they  are  naturally  divided  in  a  riglit 
pronunciation,"  itc. 

Of  the  Unaccantcd  T'oivcls  i  &  u. 

When  i  "^nds  a  synablo  after  the  accent,  it  is  always  sounded  like  c,  as  scn-si- 
hle,  glo-ri-fy,  a-hil-i-tij,  Sec.  See  the  words.  This  sound,  although  not  so  lonj^ 
as  c  in  me,  when  pronounced  alone,  hns  exactly  the  same  radical  tone.  The 
true  pronunciation  of  the  last  example  (as  if  written  a-bil'c-te)  bcinc:  familiar  to 
everv  one,  will  sufficiently  illustrate  the  aouml  in  question.  ^Vhut  has  been 
said  of?'  v.'iU  apply  to  slwrt  ?/,  when  terminating'  a  syllable  ;  as  the  y  in  ahU'dy. 
But  wiicQ  i  ends  a  syllalde  immediately  before  the  accent,  it  is  sometimes  pro- 
nounced long-,  as  ia  vi-tcil-i-fy,  where  the  first  i  is  loii:::;^;  and  sometimes  short, 
as  in  di£;e.if^  where  tb.e  i  sounds  like  r.  Tlic  sound  of  the  ?.■>'  in  this  situation,  is 
so  little  reducible  tarnlc,  that  none  of  our  writers  have  attempted  it. 

There  is  an  incori'cct  pronunciation  of  the  letter  ;/•  wlicn  it  ends  a  syllabic  not 
Tinder  the  accent,  which  prevails,  not  f)n!v  unioiig"  the  \uljar,  but  is  sometimes 
found  in  better  conijiany  ;  and  that  is,  giviiig-  the  u  an  obscure  sound,  which  con- 
founds itwith  vowels  of  a  very  diiferent  kind  :  thus  we  not  unfrequently  hear  Hn- 
^u/ar,  regular,  and  particular,  pronounced  as  if  written  xin^:-e-lar,  rcg-e-lar,  and 
par-tik-c-lnv  ;  but  nothiug-  tends  more  to  tarnish  and  vulgarise  the  prominciatioa 
than  this  short  and  obscure  sound  of  the  unaccented  w^  It  mariHudced,  be  ob- 
served, that  there  is  scarcely  any  thing-  -vrhich  more  disting-uishes  persons  of  mean 
and  good  education  than  the  pronunciation  of  tiie  unaccented  vowels.  When 
vowels  are  imder  tlie  accent,  the  prince,  and  the  lowest  of  the  people  in  the  me - 
i'ropolis,  with  vety  few  exceptions,  pronounce  them  in  the  same  manner  ;  but 
the  unaccented  vowels  in  the  mouth  of  the  Airmer  have  a  distinct,  open,  and  spe- 
cilic  sound,  while  the  latter  often  totally  sink  them,  or  change  them  into  some 
r'Jier  sound.  Tiiose,  thei'efore,  who  wish  to  pronounce  elegantly,  must  be  par- 
:  Ocularly  attentive  to  the  iniaccentcd  voAvels,  as  a  neat  pronunciation  of  these 
■'orms  one  of  the  g-rcatest  beauties  of  speaking:. 


DIRECTIONS  TO  FOREIGNERS, 

Jn  order  to  attain  a  knowledge  of  the  marks  in  this  Dictionary,  and  to  acquire  a 
right  pronunciation  of  every  word  in  the  English  language. 

AS  the  sounds  of  the  vowels  are  different  in  different  languages,  it  would  be 
endless  to  bring  parallel  sounds  from  the  various  languages  of  Europe  ;  but  as 
the  French  is  so  generally  understood,  if  ^ve  can  reduce  the  sounds  of  the  En- 
glish letters  to  those  of  the  French,  we  shall  render  the  pronunciation  of  our  lan- 
guage very  generally  attainable;  and  this,  it  is  presumed,  will  be  pretty  accu- 
rately accomplished  bj"^  dbserving  the  fullo^ving  directions  :

The  French  have  nearly  all  our  vowel  sounds,  and  will,  therefore,  find  the  pro- 
nunciation of  them  very  easy.  The  ouly  dilficulty  they  will  meet  with  seems  to 
be  i,  which,  though  demonstrably  conji^used  of  two  successive  sounds,  has  passed 
for  a  simple  vowel  with  Mr.  Nares,  a  very  competent  judge  of  English  pronuncia- 
tion. The  reason  is,  these  two  sounds  rue  pronounced  so  closely  together  as  to 
require  some  attention  to  discover  their  component  parts  ;  this  attention  Mr. 
Sheridan  never  gave,  or  he  would  not  have  told  us  that  this  diphthong  is  a  com- 
pound of  our  fullest  and  slenderest  sounds  a  and  e  ;  the  first  made  by  the  largest, 
and  the  last  by  the  smallest  aperture  of  the  mouth.  Now,  nothing  is  more  cer- 
tain than  the  inaccuracy  of  this  definition.  The  thir4  sound  of  a,  which  is  per- 
fectly equivalent  to  the  third  sound  of  o,  when  combined  with  the  first  sound  oft, 
must  inevitably  form  the  diphthong  boy,  joy,  &c.  and  not  the  diphthongal  sound 
of  the  vowel  i  in  idle,  and  the  personal  pronoun  //  this  double  sound  will,  upon 
close  examination,  be  found  to  be  composed  of  the  Italian  a  in  the  last  syllable  of 
papa,  and  the  first  sound  of  e,  pronounced  as  closely  together  as  possible  ;  and  for 
the  exactness  of  this  definition,  I  appeal  to  every  just  English  ear  in  the  kingdom. 

The  other  diphthongal  vowel  u  is  composed  of  the  French  i,  pronounced  as 
closely  as  possible  to  their  diphthong  on,  or  the  English  ee  and  d,  perfectly 
equivalent  to  the  sound  the  French  would  give  to  the  letters  you,  and  which  is 
exactly  the  sound  the  Encrlish  give  to  the  plural  of  the  second  personal  pronoun. 


X.  DIRECTIONS  TO  FOREIGXERS.. 

The  (I'lphthon^  oi  or  oy  is  composed  of  the  German  a  ami  i ;  tlius,  toy  anJ 
hoi/  would  souad  to  a  German  or  Hollander  like  tai  and  bui.  Tliere  is  no  sound 
in  the  French  lan,trnag:e  equivalent  to  that  of  oi  or  oy  in  English  ;  consequently, 
l^reDchmcn  must  learn  the  pronunciation  of  these  diplithongs  from  the  mouth  of 
a  native. 

The  dipi)thonf;-3  ou  and  oiv,  when  sounded  like  ow,  are  composed  of  tlic  Frcncli 
a  and  the  diphthong  ov  ;  and  the  Enfrash  sound  of  thou  and  now  may  be  expressed 
t\3  a  Frenchman  by  spelling-  them  thuoU'  and  7iAou. 

W  13  no  more  than  the  French  diphthong  ou ;  thus,  \ccst  is  equivalent  to 
oupst,  and  vc  to  oxti. 

Y,  when  it  beg-ins  a  word,  is  equivalent  to  the  French  y  and  i  ;  thus  you  and 
j^orc  sound  to  a  Frenchman  as  thc)^  are  written.  "When  not  at  the  beginning'  of 
a  word,  y  has  a  variety  of  sounds  ;  thus,  at  the  end  of  some  words,  as  glorify, 
.testify,  deify,  and  several  other  verbs,  it  has  the  lung  sound  of?.  At  tlic  end  of 
some  other  words,  as  variety,  ainlity,  nativity,  itc.  it  has  tlie  long  sound  of  e. 
In  otlier  words  again,  as  martyr,  satyr,  &c.  it  has  the  sh(u't  soimd  of  w.  Expe- 
rience will  best  teach  the  proj>er  mode  of  pronouncing  this  letter  in  its  various 
combinations. 

J,  or  /,  consonant,  must  be  pronounced  by  prefixing  d  to  the  French  j  ;  thus 
jay,  &c.  sound  to  a  Frenchman  as  if  s[K'lled  djc,  fee.  if  any  dilTiculty  be  foimd 
in  forming  this  combination  of  sounds,  it  '-i!!  be  removed  by  pronouncing  the  d, 
ed,  and  spelling  this  word  edj^,  &c. 

Ch,  in  English  M'ords  not  deiived  from  the  Greek,  Lnlin  or  Fivnch.  is  pro- 
nounced as  if  <  were  prefixed  ;  thus  the  sound  of  chair,  chfrse,  chain,  kr.  would 
be  understood  by  a  Frenchman  if  the  woi-ds  were  written  tchcrr,  fdiizc,  tchenc. 

Sh  in  English  is  expressed  hy-ch  in  French  ;  tlms,  shame,  share,  &c.  would  he 
spelled  by  a  Frenchman  clu'me,  chc'rc,  &c. 

The  ringing  sound  jig;  in  lon^-,  song,  &c.  ma\'  be  pcifectly  conceived  by  a  pn- 
pil  who,  can  pronounce  the  French  word  encore,  as  the  first  syllabic  of  this  word 
is  exactly  correspondent  to  the  sound  in  Iho.^e  English  words. 

But  the  greatest  difficulty  every  forcigucr  finds  in  pronouncing  Englisli,  is  the 
lisping  consonant  ih.  Tliis,  it  may  bo  oKtscn'od,  has,  like  tlic  other  consonants, 
a  sharp  and  flat  sound;  sliarp  as  in  thin,  bath  ;  flat  as  in  that,  icith.  To  acquire 
the  true  pronunciation  of  this  difficult  combination,  it  may  be  proper  to  begin 
with  those  words  where,  it  is  initial ;  and  first,  let  the  pupil  protrude  his  tongue 
a  little  beyond  the  teeth,  and  press  it  between  them  as  if  going  to  bite  the  tip  of  it; 
while  this  is  doing,  if  he  wishes  to  pronounce  thin,  let  him  hiss  as  if  to  soimd  the 
letter  s,  and  after  the  hiss»  let  him  draw  back  liis  tongue  within  his  teclU,  and 


DIRECTIONS  TO  FOREIGNER&  xi 

[ironotiDce  the  preposition  in,  and  thus  will  the  word  thin  be  perfectl}'  pronounced. 
If  he  would  pronounce  that,  let  him  place  the  lonp:ue  between  the  teeth  as  be- 
fore, and  while  he  is  hissing  as  if  to  sound  the  letter  z,  let  him  withdraw  his 
tong-ue  into  Lis  moutli,  aud  immediately  pronounce  the  preposition  at.  To  pro- 
nounce this  combination  when  final  in  bath,  let  him  pronounce  ba,  and  protrude 
the  tongue  beyond  the  teeth,  pressing  the  tongue  with  them,  and  hissing  as  if  to 
sound  s.  If  he  would  pronounce  ^L•^tfL,  let  him  first  form  ivi,  put  the  tongue  in 
the  same  position  as  before,  and  hiss  as  if  to  sound  z.  It  will  he  propep  to  make 
the  pupil  (hvell  some  tinie  with  the  tongue  beyond  the  teeth  in  order  to  form  a 
Labit,  and  to  pronounce  daily  some  words  out  of  a  Dictionary,  beginning  and 
ending  with  these  letters. 

The  Ei^;-lish  accent  is  often  an  insurmountable  obstacle  to  foreigners,  as  the 
rules  for  it  are  so  various,  and  the  exceptions  so  numerous. 

But  scarcely  any  method  will  be  so  useful  for  gaining  the  English  accent  as 
the  KcaJing  of  verse.  This  will  naturally  lead  the  ear  to  the  right  accentuation ; 
and  though  a  different  position  of  the  accent  is  frequently  to  be  met  with  in  the 
beginning  of  a  verse,  there  is  a  sufficient  regularity  to  render  the  pronouncing  of 
verse  a  powerful  means  of  obtaining  such  a  distinction  of  force  and  feebleness  as 
is  commonly  called  the  accent;  for  it  may  be  observed,  that  a  forcig-ner  is  no 
less  disting-uishuble  by  placing  an  accent  upon  certain  words  to  wliich  the  English 
give  no  stress,  tiian  by  placing  the  stress  upon  a  wrong  syllable.  Thus,  if  a  fo- 
reig-ner,  when  he  calls  for  bread  at  table,  by  saying,  give  ine  some  bread,  \^y% 
an  equal  stress  upon  everj-  word,  though  every  word  should  be  pronounced  with 
its  exact  sound,  we  immediately  perceive  he  is  not  a  native.  An  Englishman 
would  pronounce  these  four  words  like  two,  with  the  accent  on  the  first  syllabic 
of  the  first,  and  the  last  syllable  of  the  last,  as  if  written  givcme  somehrcad  ;  or 
TdXhci'  givme  eunibred^  or  n«»re  commonly^  though  vulgarly,  gunmc  somcbi'ed.
