PREFACE.
THE preceding title-page indicates the nature of the present work and the
design of its author. Except so far as is necessary for etymological purposes,
words occurring in writers ordinarily read by less advanced students of the
I^itin language are, for the most part, alone explained ; and in their treat-
ment the principles upon which the larger Dictionary of White and Kiddle is
hased are uniformly followed, as fully as circumstances allow or require. The
course which has been pursued may be thus described. Immediately utter the
assigned origin of each word, the literal interpretation is given between
parentheses; and that English rendering of which such interpretation holds
good in a pre-eminent degree is placed first in order, and regarded as the
proper or primary meaning. When the source of a word is not discoverable,
the fact is stated ; and the ordinary interpretation is accepted and assigned
the first place. When figurative and metonymical powers exist, either
separately or conjointly, these are given, when they fall within the necessarily
restricted scope of the work. A brief reference is usually made to some
author; invariably so, indeed, when a quotation is deemed desirable or
needful. Peculiar or unusual grammatical constructions are noticed. In the
case of adjectives and adverbs, the comparative and superlative degrees are
mentioned when they are known to exist ; and whenever either one or the
other or both are omitted, it is to be considered that no authority is to be
found for their use. Proper names are included in the body of the work,
and will be found in their alphabetical order ; added to which their meaning
is stated, whenever their origin is clearly traceable or may be reasonably
conjectured ; such meaning being printed in Koman type in the case of
Latinized Greek names, and in Italic type in the case of pure Latin names.
French derivatives from such Latin words as are comprised in this Dictionary
are, moreover, mentioned.
In one respect, however, this book differs from the parent work, and,
indeed, from any Dictionary which has yet appeared. This peculiarity con-
sists in the mode of printing <each leading word so as to exhibit its process of
formation, and thus show the reason for the etymological meanii^g assigned to

it. The plan was originally devised lor, and carried out in, a work on the
structure of the Latin language, entitled " Latin Suffixes," which was written
for the special instruction of the boys of a particular department in a particular
school. The success which attended its use has suggested the application of
its principles in the present instance. Since, however, this mode of printing
is a novelty in Lexicographical works, some explanation of the plan itself is
required.
SIMPLE WORDS consist, in part, of a base, which may be either a root, or a
theme by some called a stem; in part, of either a suffix alone or a suffix
preceded by a connecting vowel or by a consonant, which some etymologists
term " euphonic," others " epenthetic." In order, as before stated, to show the
formation of the word, and at the same time to assist in indicating the
etymological force resulting from the combination of the base and suffix, a
hyphen is placed between them. Thus, in am-or, ama-far, and vir-tus, the
respective bases are am, ama, and vir ; the respective suffixes are or, tor, and
tus. Again, in teg umen, mon-ttor, and mon-strum, the respective bases are
teg and mon; umen and itor supply instances of the occurrence of a connect-
ing vowel ; while strum shows the employment of the euphonic or epenthetic
consonant between the suffix and base ; the connecting vowels being respec-
tively u and i ; the euphonic or eperthetic consonant, s ; the suffixes, men
tor, and trum. In some few casu, a seeming prefix is employed : see the
articles a-pi-s, a-vi-s.
COMPOUND WORDS are formed sometimes by the union of two simple words,
jither without or with some letter-change or contraction ; at other times by
the combination of the primary elements entering into the formation of two
(rarely more) simple words, either with or without a connecting vowel, and
generally with, though occasionally without, a suffix ; while, further still, a
euphonic or epenthetic consonant is inserted in certain instances.
Of the former of these two classes of compound words, ab-soluo, per-rumpo,
con-scendo, are examples. In order to distinguish the component parts, a
hyphen is inserted between them. If the composition involves no letter-
change, the word is simply printed as shown in ab-soluo, per-rumpo. But if
a letter-change occurs, then mention is made of the fact, while the same mode
of printing is retained. Thus, that con-scendo is a compound word, appears
from the employment of the hyphen, while the change that is made in one of
its members is mentioned immediately after the statement of its mode of
flexion and of its conjugation, in the following way ; [for con-seando] ;
aon-scendo being in fact the euphonised form of con-scando Examples
PREFACE. V
of the formation of compound words from two simple words, through contrac-
tions, lire found in ne-mo from ne-homo t and in n-olo from ne-volo.
Of the other claps of compound words, la>t-i-fic-o, and mont-f-cdl-a,
exhibit the employment of a connecting vowel and the addition of a sufEz.
Paer-ptr-us and con-saiigum-eus are formed without an intervening con-
necting vowel, while they each receive a suffix. In tccd-i-fer and tub-i-cen?
there is a connecting vowel, but no suffix. While, as will be presently
shown, equ-e-s and com-e-s receive a euphonic or epenthetic consonant, though
it does not appear in their nominative cases. Here, too, as in the other
class of compound words, hyphens are employed to separate the component
parts. In that portion of each article which is devoted to etymological
information, the respective roots or themes of the simple words are shown
by their being separated by a hyphen from the part changed in flexion ;
the connecting vowel or euphonic (otherwise epenthetic) consonant is
denoted by its being placed between parentheses ( ) ; while, Further still, any
letter-changes that may occur are stated.
By reference to the body of the work it will be seen that Icet-i-fic-o is for
la>t-i-fdc-o. Here Icet is the theme of Icet-vs ; fac is the root offac-io ; t, as
will be seen from its mode of printing viz. (i), is a connecting vowel ;
while the o is a verbal suffix. So also in the case of mont-t-col-a, it will be
seen that mont is the true theme of mom the t disappearing, be it observed,
in the nominative before the following consonant, s ; that col is the root oi
col-o ; that i is a connecting vowel ; while the final a is a suffix. Here it
should be stated, that where the true theme of a noun is not discoverable in
the nominative case, the genitive is given, as there it always appears : e. g.
mons, mont-is.
On the other hand, in puer-per-us, puer the theme of puer, puer-i, is
connected immediately with/>er, which is altered from par, the root of par-io ;
while the final syllable us is a suffix. In con-sangufn-jfus, con, the form
assumed in certain cases by cum when used in composition, is joined im-
mediately to sanguin, which is the theme of sangitis, the n being thrown
out before the following consonant s ; while eus is a suffix.
Again. Tad-i-fer and tub-i-cen respectively supply instances of words
having a connecting vowel, but being without a suffix. Thus, teed is the theme
of tced-a ; fer is the root of fer-o; i is a connecting vowel. So, tub is the
theme oftub-a; cen represents can, the root of can-o ; while i is a connecting
vowel.
It has also been mentioned that a euphonic or epenthetic consonant i
occasionally inserted. The articles com-e-s and equ-e-s will show thib.
Com-e-s, it is stated in tb* work itself, is put for com-i-(t}-s, and equ-e-s for

Vi PREFACE.
equ-i'^j-s. In each instance the t does not appear in the nominative case;
but it does appear in the oblique cases, and throughout the plural number;
e.g. com-i-t-is, equ-i-t-is, etc. To indicate the nature of the letter /, it. ta
printed, as shown above, between parentheses ; viz. (t). It should be stated,
however, that by some scholars this t is considered to be a suffix.
To pass now to some lew other points which require mention.
Words, whether simple or compound, formed in the way above described,
are often the sources of a still further formation. When this is the case, that
portion of them which is not subject to flexion becomes the base of the
new word, and is cot divided into its original elements, but is printed con-
tinuously. To illustrate this by reference to words already used a.s examples.
From mon-strum, con-scendo, are obtained, by the addition of suffixes, monstr-
teus, cvnscen-sio (for conscend-sto) : the basea being monstr, conscend, which
are those portions of their respective words which are not subject to flexion-,
and the suffixes being osus, sio.
Words obtained directly from the Greek language, and which are in fact
merely Latin representatives of Greek forms, are printed without any
division : as, machina from priyavr] ; Metnnon from Mc'/ji'wi'. Words, aLso, of
doubtful origin are not divided.
When a consonant is inserted in the present tense of a verb in order to
Strengthen the present form, such consonant is inclosed, in the leading word,
between parentheses: as, ju(n)g-o y ru(m)p-o; the true roots of which are
respectively jug and nip.
When words are formed from verbs of the first conjugation, and receive
the conjugational letter a, such a, when their origin is stated, is exhibited
between parentheses ; thus ama-tor, ara-trum, are paid to spring from am(a)-o,
ar(a)-o. But when the a is not employed, the ordinary form of the first
person of the present tense of the verb is given , thus aw-or, ar-vus are repre-
sented as having their sources in am-o, ar-o.
When a word has for its base the uninflected portion of a substantive of
the second declension, or of an adjective following the form of the second
declension, and such base ends in two, or more, consonant?, a vowel is at times
inserted before the last of them ; as from minister, ministr-i, is formed minister -
turn, not ministrium ; from tignum, tign-i, comes tigil-lum (for tigin-lum}, not
tign-lum', and from integer, integr-i, is obtained integel-lus (for integer-Ins),
not integr-lus. The same statement also holds good in some other cases ; as
from umbra, umbr-ce of the first declension, springs umbel-la (for umtM>-la) 9
not umbr-la.
Some suffixes are simple, as or in am-or ; others are compound as tus in
PR K FACE. Vli
vir-tus, which i^present* 1 lut-s, the real or pure suffix being tut, and s the
nominative case-ending. This, however, is a point which cannot be treated
of at length in a preface.
When a suffix is preceded by a connecting vowel, or by a euphonic or
epenthetic consonant, no hyphen is employed; as mon-itor, not mon-i-tor;
mon-*tiiiin, not mon-s-trvm.
As the suffix always forms the last portion of a word, and follows the
hyphen in simple words and the last hyphen in compound words, it has
not been thought necessary to repeat in any instance what it is, inasmuch as
it is self-evident. Where no suffix is used, the fact will appear in the state-
ment given of the origin of the word.
Such is the outline of the plan upon which the leading words in this work
are printed ; a plan which, it is confidently believed, will go far to render an
acquaintance with the mode of formation, and the etymological meaning, of
words in general, comparatively easy even to persons beginning to study th
Latin language. Should further insight into these matters be, desired, it may
be obtained from the work already mentioned " Latin Suffixes." Much, also,
will soon be procurable from the forthcoming" Public Schools Latin Grammar,"
especially with regard to letter-changes, and the construction of the cases of
nouns and of the perfect tenses and the supines of verbs. From an examination
of that work, which has been courteously conceded to the author of this
Dictionary, in common with certain others engaged in educational pursuits, he
is enabled to speak of the effort to harmonize grammatical teaching in this
country as being, in his judgment, most skilfully carried out, and likely to
be hailed as a great boon by all who can appreciate the advantages that
cannot but accrue from the general adoption of one standard Grammar for
the primary instruction of youth.
The assistance which the author received in his former and larger Abridg-
ment of " White and Riddle's Dictionary " from the Rev. Ernest Brette
Graduate of the University of France, Head Master of the French School at
Christ's I lospital, and French Examiner in the University of London and for the
Civil Service of India has been extended to him in the present instance
also; that gentleman having kindly undertaken to test the accuracy of the
printing of the French derivatives, For this service the author tenders him
his very sin ex- re thanks.

Axona, se, /. Axona; a river oj

B
B, b. n. indecl. or /. The second
letter of the Latin alphabet, express-
ing the soft labial sound between v
and p, corresponding to the Gr. beta
(B, f), and briefly expressed by be.
At the beginning of words b is
found only in connection with the
consonants I and r (in pure Latin
words) ; but in the middle of them
it is also connected with other liqu-
id and feeble consonants. Before
hard consonants b is found only in
compounds with ab, ob, and sub,
which prepositions alone end in a
labial sound ; and these frequently
rejected the labial, even when they
were separated by the addition of an s ;
as abspello, absporto pass into aspello, j
asporto ; or the place of the labial is j
supplied by u, as in aufero, aufugio,
for ahfero, abfugio. The Gr. \ was
represented by bs; as, absis, Absyrtus,
absinthium, and obsonium = a^i<;, i 'A^-
vpros, at/uV0iop, 6i|/<iWtoi<. Also, b
before s and t was changed into p, as
scribo, scripsi, scriptum; nubo, nupsi, j
nuptum, etc. Still the grammarians
not rarely vary in these words between !
bs and ps.Of the liquids, J and r j
Btaud both before and after b, but m \
(with one exception) only before it,
and n only after it ; hence, con and in
before b always become com and im;
just as inversely b before n is sometimes
changed to m, as Samnium for Sabini-
um; and scamnum for scabinum,
whence the dimin. scabellum. B is so
readily joined with u, that not only
acubus, arcubus, etc., were written for
acibus, ambus, etc., but also contubern-
ium was formed from taberna, and
bubile was used for bovile, as also in
dubius (=8016?, duo) a b was inserted.
B is rejected in uro for buro, from
irvp, while it is retained in comburo
and bustum. B is reduplicated in 6/60,
from the Gr. TU'U>, as the shortness of
the first syllable in the preterite bibi,
compared with dtdi and steti or stiti,
shows ; although later bibo was treat-
ed as a primitive, and the supine
words deserves special mention, ;w
duonus for bonus; Bellona for Duell-
ona ; bellum for duellum, and bis from
duis.
