PEEFACE. 


The  following  "Work  was  undertaken  at  the  suggestion  of  the 
Publishers,  whose  design  was  that  it  should  be  a  School  Dictionary, 
containing  all  English  words  in  common  use,  arranged  in  the  usual 
alphabetical  order,  with  the  etymology  of  such  as  are  derived  from 
the  Greek  and  the  Latin.  But  the  Compiler  had  not  proceeded  far 
in  his  labours,  when  certain  difficulties  in  the  way  of  executing 
them  in  a  manner  satisfactory  to  himself,  led  him  to  reconsider  the 
plan  originally  proposed,  and  subsequently  to  lay  down  the  following 
rules  for  his  future  guidance  : — First,  To  insert  no  word  which  has 
not  been  sanctioned  by  the  use  of  some  eminent  author,  or  which 
has  become  obsolete  ;  secondly,  To  give  the  Spelling  and  Pronun- 
ciation which  are  supported  by  the  greatest  number  of  competent 
authorities ;  thirdly,  To  denote  what  appears  to  be  the  Root  of 
every  word  ;  and,  fourthly,  To  define  and  explain  the  words  as  they 
are  generally  employed  by  the  standard  writers  of  the  English 
language. 

The  number  of  words  in  the  English  language  has  been  computed 
to  amount  to  about  eighty  thousand.  Of  these  some,  which  are 
found  in  the  earlier  authors,  have  become  obsolete  ;  others  in  com- 
mon colloquial  use  have  not  been  authorized  by  classical  writers  : 
a  few  are  entirely  technical,  that  is  to  say,  are  employed  only  in 
connexion  with  some  particular  art ;  and  many  are  mere  inflections 
or  compounds.  As  the  Compiler  could  not  insert  all  the  words  in 
the  language  in  so  small  a  Work,  he  has  rejected  almost  all  belonging 
to  these  four  classes  :  those  belonging  to  the  first  class,  because  they 
are  no  longer  in  use  ;  to  the  second,  because  they  are  not  sanctioned 


4  PREFACE. 

by  sufficient  authority  ;  to  the  third,  because  they  are  not  used  in 
general  speech  or  writing ;  and  to  the  fourth,  because  they  do  not 
differ  in  derivation,  meaning,  or  pronunciation,  from  the  words  from 
which  they  are  formed.  After  all  these  deductions  and  omissions, 
there  still  remain  nearly  forty  thousand  words,  which  are  contained 
in  the  present  Work,  and  for  which  quoted  authority  will  be  found 
in  the  larger  Dictionaries. 

In  the  spelling  of  words,  the  Compiler  has  taken  as  his  guide  the 
prevailing  usage  of  the  principal  lexicographers.  A  more  uniform 
system  might  have  been  introduced  by  adopting  certain  general  rules, 
according  to  which  particular  classes  of  words  might  have  been 
spelled.  But  every  such  rule  would  have  led  to  greater  changes  in 
the  usual  practice  than  the  Compiler  felt  himself  authorized  to  make. 
Instead  of  aiming  at  uniformity,  therefore,  he  has  preferred  that 
mode  of  spelling  each  word  which  he  found  to  be  supported  by  the 
greatest  number  of  authorities. 

He  has  pursued  a  similar  plan  in  the  pronunciation  of  words. 
Generally,  the  system  of  Walker  has  been  adopted,  as  being  most  in 
accordance  with  the  usage  of  the  educated  portion  of  society ;  but 
the  Compiler  has  not  hesitated  to  depart  from  it,  whenever  he  found 
it  at  variance  either  with  the  majority  of  authorities,  or  with  gene  ml 
practice. 

In  the  mode  of  indicating  pronunciation,  however,  the  present 
Work  differs,  in  various  respects,  from  that  of  Walker.  In  the  first 
place,  marks  have  been  preferred  to  figures,  as  being  equally  precise 
and  less  perplexing.  In  the  second  place,  the  pronunciation  is  in- 
dicated only  by  the  marks  and  the  ordinary  sounds  of  the  letters,  no 
attempt  being  made  to  render  the  pronunciation  more  plain  by  a 
different  mode  of  spelling  ;  except  in  peculiar  words,  and  in  such  as 
are  pronounced  in  two  different  ways,  one  of  which  ways  is  generally 
indicated  by  marks,  and  the  other  by  spelling  the  word  as  it  is  pro- 
nounced. In  the  third  place,  marks  are  placed  only  above  the  vowels 
in  syllables  which  have  the  primary  or  secondary  accent,  most  of  the 
others  being  pronounced  so  obscurely  that  the  sound  cannot  be 
exactly  indicated.  At  the  foot  of  each  page  is  a  key  to  the  notation, 
and  appended  to  this  Preface  is  a  table  of  the  sounds  indicated  by 
marks,  or  by  syllabication ;  by  the  help  of  which  there  will  be  no 
difficulty  in  ascertaining,  with  all  necessary  precision,  the  pronuncia- 
tion of  every  word. 


PREFACE.  5 

The  most  satisfactory  way  of  giving  the  derivation  of  words,  would 
have  been  to  have  taken  the  most  remote  root,  and  traced  it,  through 
all  its  changes,  into  English.  But,  this  was  not  practicable  in  a  work 
of  limited  extent  like  the  present ;  and,  for  want  of  space,  the  Com- 
piler was  forced  to  adopt  a  mode  of  derivation  which,  while  it  is 
sufficient  to  show  the  origin  of  words,  at  the  same  time  saves  all 
avoidable  repetition,  both  of  the  roots  and  of  their  signification. 
Instead  of  giving  its  root  after  each  English  word,  he  has  collected 
into  families  or  groups  all  words  which  are  derived  from  the  same 
root,  and  which  begin  with  the  same  syllable  and  have  affinity  in 
signification  as  well  as  in  etymology,  placing  first,  in  large  letters, 
what  may  be  called  the  head  of  the  family  or  group,  and  arranging 
under  it,  in  smaller  type,  the  other  derivatives,  in  alphabetical  order. 
In  like  manner,  instead  of  explaining  each  root  as  it  occurs  in  the 
body  of  the  Work,  he  has  collected  the  principal  roots  into  a  Voca- 
bulary, in  which  he  has  given  their  signification,  and,  as  examples 
of  their  derivatives,  the  head  or  first  word  of  every  group  in  the 
Dictionary.  These  arrangements  are  attended  by  several  disadvan- 
tages :— occasionally  there  is  a  slight  departure  from  the  strict  alpha- 
betical order  of  the  words  ;  sometimes  the  most  remote  root  is  given, 
without  the  intermediate  derivatives  through  which  the  word  passes 
into  English  ;  and  frequently  it  may  be  necessary  to  consult  the 
Dictionary  for  the  English  word,  and  the  Vocabulary  for  the  meaning 
of  its  root.  But,  on  the  other  hand,  the  Compiler  did  not  see  how 
he  could,  in  any  other  way,  comprise  the  explanation  and  derivation 
of  what  may  be  termed  the  classical  words  of  the  English  language 
within  the  limits  of  a  school-book ;  the  absence  of  its  signification 
after  each  root  will  not  be  felt  as  an  inconvenience  by  those  who  are 
acquainted  with  the  learned  languages,  or  have  made  some  progress 
in  the  study  of  etymology  ;  and,  when  the  Work  is  used  as  a  text- 
book for  teaching  derivation,  a  most  useful  exercise  for  advanced 
pupils  will  be  to  make  them  find  out  the  intermediate  derivatives, 
through  which  any  foreign  word,  whether  ancient  or  modern,  has 
been  transferred  into  the  English  language.  In  this  exercise,  as  well 
as  in  the  study  of  etymology  generally,  considerable  help  will  be 
obtained  from  one  of  the  annexed  tables,  in  which  are  detailed  the 
principal  changes  which  letters  undergo  in  derivation. 

On  this  division  of  the  Work,  it  may  be  necessary  to  explain,  that 
when  an  English  word  is,  in  form  and  signification,  the  same  as  its 


t)  PREFACE. 

root,  the  latter  is  not  printed,  but  only  the  language  to  which  it 
belongs  is  indicated  ;  that,  when  the  root  is  thus  of  the  same  form  as 
the  English  derivative,  and  also  when  the  form  is  different,  but  the  sig- 
nification the  same,  the  root  has  not  been  inserted  in  the  Vocabulary  ; 
that  roots  are  not  placed  after  words  for  which  no  probable  derivation 
has  been  assigned  ;  that  all  doubtful  roots  are  denoted  by  a  point  of 
interrogation  ;  that  a  few  Latin  words  not  purely  classical,  and  some 
obsolete  French  words,  will  be  found  among  the  roots ;  that  the 
roots  in  the  Dictionary,  and  the  radical  parts  of  the  words  in  the 
Vocabulary,  are  printed  in  italics ;  that,  in  Greek  words,  the  grave 
accent  on  e  final  (<?)  indicates  that  it  is  not  silent,  as  in  English  ;  that, 
in  the  Vocabulary,  r\  and  &>  are  generally  represented  by  e  and  6  ;  and 
that  the  quantity  has  been  marked  in  all  Greek  and  Latin  words  in 
which  errors  in  pronunciation  were  likely  to  occur. 

The  most  philosophical  mode  of  explaining  words  would  have  been 
to  have  given  first  their  primary  signification,  as  indicated  by  their 
derivation,  and  afterwards,  in  the  order  of  their  connexion  with  it, 
all  their  secondary  meanings.  But  in  this,  as  in  derivation,  the 
Compiler  has  been  restricted  by  want  of  room ;  and  he  has  been 
under  the  necessity  of  confining  himself  to  those  acceptations  which 
words  most  commonly  bear  in  speech  and  writing.  It  thus  not 
unfrequently  happens,  that  the  primary  meanings  of  words  have  been 
omitted,  because  they  are  not  in  use,  and  that  secondary  meanings 
are  attached  to  them,  which  appear  to  have  no  connexion  with  their 
derivation.  Such  explanations  and  definitions  as  he  has  given,  how- 
ever, the  Compiler  has  endeavoured  to  make  as  perspicuous,  and,  at 
the  same  time,  as  concise  as  possible ;  and  he  trusts  that  they  will 
be  found  sufficient  to  convey  the  ordinary  acceptations  of  all  the 
authorized  words  in  the  English  language. 

To  make  the  Dictionary  more  complete  as  a  school-book,  the  Com- 
piler has  added  a  copious  list  of  Greek,  Latin,  and  Scripture  Proper 
Names.  As  in  the  first  part  of  the  Work,  the  vowels  are  marked  as 
they  ought  to  be  pronounced,  in  syllables  having  the  primary  or 
secondary  accent :  they  are  also  marked  in  some  of  the  terminations 
which  are  liable  to  be  mispronounced.  To  save  the  trouble  of  consulting 
two  lists,  the  Greek,  Latin,  and  Scripture  Proper  Names  have  been 
printed  together.  When  a  Proper  Name  occurs  both  in  the  Classical 
writers  and  in  Scripture,  but  is  differently  accented,  each  mode  of 
pronunciation  is  indicated  ;  and  when  there  are  two  ways  of  spelling 


PREFACE.  7 

or  pronouncing  either  a  Classical  or  a  Scripture  Proper  Name,  both 
are  generally  given. 

In  every  department  of  the  Work,  the  Compiler  is  aware  that  it 
is  chargeable  with  many  faults  of  both  plan  and  execution.  He 
nevertheless  hopes  that,  as  a  school-book,  it  will  be  found  superior  to 
any  dictionary  at  present  in  use.  He  can  at  least  say  for  himself,  and 
for  the  Publishers,  that  no  labour  or  expense  has  been  spared  to  make 
it  serve  the  purpose  for  which  it  is  designed.  It  was  all  carefully 
written  by  the  Compiler's  own  hand,  and  the  utmost  attention  was 
paid  to  accuracy  while  it  was  passing  through  the  press.  Nothing 
has  been  inserted  without  authority,  and  every  word  has  been  verified. 
As  has  been  already  stated,  the  Compiler  has  not,  in  any  case, 
deferred  merely  to  his  own  opinion,  but  has  throughout  proceeded 
on  the  principle  of  being  guided  by  the  majority  of  competent 
authorities.  Of  course  he  has  exercised  his  own  judgment  in  deciding 
what  authorities  he  considered  competent ;  but  he  is  confident  that 
his  judgment  will  be  ratified  by  that  of  the  public,  when  he  adds, 
that  the  lexicographers  whom  he  has  chiefly  followed  are,  for  the 
authenticity,  spelling,  derivation,  and  explanation  of  words,  Johnson, 
Todd,  Richardson,  and  Webster ;  for  pronunciation,  Walker,  Jones, 
Perry,  Fulton,  Worcester,  and  Smart ;  and  for  Anglo-Saxon  roots, 
Bosworth.  To  these  authors,  and  to  the  authors  of  the  various  other 
works  which  he  has  consulted,  he  desires  to  make  the  most  ample 
acknowledgments. 

With  these  explanations,  the  Compiler  commits  his  Dictionary  to 
the  public,  in  the  hope  that  it  will  receive  that  approbation,  of 
which,  by  the  labour  of  several  years,  he  lias  endeavoured  to  make 
it  worthy.

EDUCATIONAL  WORKS. 


ENGLISH  BEADING,  GKAMMAE,  ETC. 

In  the  initiatory  department  of  instruction  a  valuable  series  of  works  has  been 
prepared  by  Db  M'Culloch,  formerly  Head  Master  of  the  Circus  Place  School, 
Edinburgh,  now  Minister  of  the  West  Church,  Greenock. 

DR  M'CULLOCH'S   SERIES   OF   CLASS-BOOKS. 

These  Books  are  intended  for  the  use  of  Schools  where  the  general  mental 
culture  of  the  pupil,  as  well  as  his  proficiency  in  the  art  of  reading,  is  studiously 
and  systematically  aimed  at. 

They  form,  collectively,  a  professional  Series,  so  constructed  and  graduated 
as  to  conduct  the  pupil,  by  regular  stages,  from  the  elementary  sounds  of  the 
language  to  its  highest  and  most  complex  forms  of  speech ;  and  each  separate 
Book  is  also  progressively  arranged, — the  lessons  which  are  more  easily  read 
and  understood  always  taking  the  lead,  and  preparing  the  way  for  those  of 
greater  difficulty. 

The  subject-matter  of  the  Books  is  purposely  miscellaneous.  Yet  it  is 
always  of  a  character  to  excite  the  interest  and  enlarge  the  knowledge  of  the 
reader.  And  with  the  design  of  more  effectually  promoting  his  mental  growth 
and  nurture,  the  various  topics  are  introduced  in  an  order  conformable  to  that 
in  which  the  chief  faculties  of  the  juvenile  mind  are  usually  developed. 

That  the  moral  feelings  of  the  pupil  may  not  be  without  their  proper 
stimulus  and  nutriment,  the  lessons  are  pervaded  throughout  by  the  religious 
and  Christian  element.

HISTOKY. 

The  works  in  this  department  have  been  prepared  with  the  greatest  care. 
They  will  be  found  to  include  Class-books  for  Junior  and  Senior  Classes  in  all 
the  branches  of  History  generally  taught  in  the  best  schools.  While  the 
utmost  attention  has  been  paid  to  accuracy,  the  narratives  have  in  every 
case  been  rendered  as  instructive  and  pleasing  as  possible,  so  as  to  relieve  the 
6tudy  from  the  tediousness  of  a  mere  dry  detail  of  facts. 

A  Concise  History  of  England  in  Epochs.     By  J.  F. 

Corkran.     With  Maps  and  Genealogical  and  Chronological  Tables, 

and  comprehensive  Questions  to  each  Chapter.     New  Edition,  with 

the  History  continued.     2s.  6d. 

The  writer  has  endeavoured  to  convey  a  broad  and  full  impression  of  the 
great  Epochs,  and  to  develop  with  care,  but  in  subordination  to  the  rest  of 
the  narrative,  the  growth  of  Law  and  of  the  Constitution.

Athenceum. — "  A  cheap  and  excellent  history  of  England,  admirably  adapted 
for  the  use  of  junior  classes.  The  various  changes  that  have  taken  place  in 
our  constitution  are  briefly  but  clearly  described.  It  is  surprising  how  suc- 
cessfully the  editor  has  not  merely  avoided  the  obscurity  which  generally 
accompanies  brevity,  but  invested  his  narrative  with  an  interest  too  often 
wanting  in  larger  historical  works.  The  information  conveyed  is  thoroughly 
sound;  and  the  utility  of  the  book  is  much  increased  by  the  addition  of 
examination  questions  at  the  end  of  each  chapter."

Athenceum. — u  A  carefully  compiled  history  for  the  use  of  schools.  The 
writer  has  consulted  the  more  recent  authorities:  his  opinions  are  liberal, 
and  on  the  whole  just  and  impartial:  the  succession  of  events  is  developed 
with  clearness,  and  with  more  of  that  picturesque  effect  which  so  delights  the 
young  than  is  common  in  historical  abstracts."

EDINBURGH  ACADEMY  CLASS-BOOKS. 

The  acknowledged  merit  of  these  school-books,  and  the  high  reputation  of 
the  seminary  from  -which  they  emanate,  almost  supersede  the  necessity  of 
any  recommendation.  The  " Latin"  and  " Greek  Rudiments"  form  an  intro- 
duction to  these  languages  at  once  simple,  perspicuous,  and  comprehensive. 
The  "Latin  Rudiments"  contain  an  Appendix,  which  renders  the  use  of  a 
separate  work  on  Grammar  quite  unnecessary ;  and  the  list  of  anomalous  verbs 
in  the  "  Greek  Rudiments  "  is  believed  to  be  more  extensive  and  complete  than 
any  that  has  yet  appeared  in  School  Grammars  of  the  language.  In  the 
"  Latin  Delectus  "  and  "  Greek  Extracts  "  the  sentences  have  been  arranged 
strictly  on  the  progressive  principle,  increasing  in  difficulty  with  the  advance- 
ment of  the  Pupil's  knowledge;  while  the  Vocabularies  contain  an  explanation 
not  only  of  every  word,  but  also  of  every  difficult  expression  which  is  found 
in  the  works, — thus  rendering  the  acquisition  of  the  Latin  and  Greek  languages 
both  easy  and  agreeable.  The  Selections  from  Cicero  embrace  the  portions 
of  his  works  which  are  best  adapted  for  Scholastic  tuition.
