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.

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.
