A NATIONAL rTEOCTRAPHY FOR SCHOOLS, Illustrated by 330 Engravings, and 33 Mapst WITH A GLOBE MAP, ON A NEW PLAN. S. G. GOODRICH, AUTHOR OF "peter PARLEY's TALKS." One Volume Quarto. This work is designed as a school book — as a book foi" teaching; and nothing in tiie work is allowed to interfere with this design. At the same time, from the arrangement adopted, it will .be found to contain a great quantity of matter which will render it a convenient family book for reference. Its utility, in this respect, will be enhanced by the index at the close of the volume. Simplicity, perspicuity, and convenience, have been cardfuUy studied in the arranu:ement of the whole work. Thus the typography, especially that which contains the leading ideas of each lesson, is clear and conspicuous ; the lettering" of the maps is peculiarly full and distinct ; the maps are in immediate contiguity with the descriptions of countries to which they relate ; the whole view of each country is brought togethei-, so as not to embarrass the reader by a reference to separate pages, or separate tables ; distinct maps of the principal countries are given, and care has been taken not to fill them with unimportant names, which may bewilder the student, and render all his acquisitions obscure and imperfect. In respect to maps, a new' and useful device has been adopted, which we entitle a Globe Map. This, of necessity, is separate from the pages referring to it, but its great utility and convenience, in the way it is to be used, cannot fail to strike every practical teacher. It has a handle, and with a model of the globe in his hand, the pupil is taught the various names given to the divisions of land and water, the shapes of oceans and continents, and the relative positions of countries and places upon the face of the earth. It is, in short, a substitute for an artificial globe, with the advantage of being easily handled, and constantly before the eye, during the early stages of the study. As a means of rendering the progress of the pupil at once agreeable and effective, the author has endeavoured to invest the subject with eveiy degree of interest of which it is capable. He has sought to keep the attention alive by vivid descriptions ; and, in order to convey accurate impressions of visible objects, he has introduced a larger number of illustrative engravings than have ever appeared in a similar treatise. Every one knows that mere words are incapable of conveying correct and distinct ideas of animals ; and that a simple cut of a lion, for instance, will be more useful in giving an impression of his form and aspect, than a whole volume of verbal description. The same may be said of the countenances and costumes of various na- 'tions ; of the peculiar modes of building, traveling, worshiping, , when neither vowel is pointed, have the soimd of c long; ai and ay, the sound of a long; oa, that of a long. In all cases when one vowel of a digraph is marked, that vowel has the sound des- ignated by the mark, and the other is quiescent ; thus, vp-brcdd, ap-pear, vein-, broad. By marking the vowel o in the digraphs ou and ow, the digraph is distinguished from the diphthong ; thus, in source, cu are a digraph ; but in sow they are a diphthong ; and b'yvj, a weapon, is distinguished from bow, to bend. The letter c, when it has the sound of A', is marked as in €xin. The soft sound of g is distinguished thus : as in gem, from the hard sound, as in go. The letter s, when it has the vocal sound, is marked thus : as in praise, to distin- guish it from the merely sibilant sound, as in sign. The letters cA, when they have the sound of 1:, are marked as in character. The letters ch, in words from the French, are pronounced as sh, and marked thus, chaise: pronounced shays. The vocal sound of ih, is distinguished thus : as in -ihoii., from the aspirated sound of th, as in thinJi. Syllables having the secondary accent, when the stress falls upon the vowel, some- times have the quality of sound indicated by a mark ; as in ah'-di-cate, nvl'-li-fy. Xll RULES FOR PRONUNCIATION AND ORTHOGRAPHY. In a full and perfect alphabet of a language, for each simple single sound, incapable of being represented by a combination of letters, there must be a simple single sign ; no sound must have more than one sign to express it ; and no sign must express more than one sound. As the English language, being both deficient and redundant, does not answer these conditions, the mode of ascertaining the proper pronunciation, by- marks and slight alterations of the present characters, seems to be the only one which can be reduced to practice. This mode, resembling the use of points in the Hebrew, has been adopted by some of the nations on the Continent ; and is in this work pur- sued so far as to facilitate, and not so far as to embarrass the learner. With this scheme, which is so simple that it may be learned in a few moments, the visible characters of the language will present to the eye of the reader the true sounds of words. A considerable number of words, also, are re-s;^led; and when use or authorities are divided, two modes of pronunciation are sometimes given. When two modes of spelling or of pronunciation are given, the leading one is generally entitled to the preference; in some cases, it is difficult to say which should be preferred. The letter «, when final, has the Italian sound ; as in Da'-td, A-mer'-i-ca. In English words and syllables ending in e, after a single consonant, the first vowel is long, and the final e is silent; as in. fate, mete, note, rite,for-ti-tude, pros-e-lyte. The vowel i, in the termination ive, is always short, except when pointed; as mo- tive, rel-a-tive : pronounced mo'-tiv, rel'-a-tiv. The letter a, coming before the letter r, has a peculiar sound ; such as is heard in the correct pronunciation of the words pre-pare, fair, pray-er. This sound difiers somewhat from the sound of long a, and approaches that of the Italian a. The letters ce, ci, and ti, before a vowel, often blend into the sound of sfi ; thus, o-cean, pho-cion, mo-tion, are pronounced o'-shun, pho'-shun, vw'-skun. The termination sion, after a consonant, is pronounced sh%n; con-cession is pronounced con-cesk'-un ; but after a vowel, it is pronounced zhun ; dif-fu^sion is pro- nounced dif-fu'-zJiun. The termination tion, in most words, is pronounced shun, after a vowel or conso- nant ; na-tion, af-fec-tion, are pronounced na'-shun, af-fec'-shton. In a few words, tian, tion, are pronounced cAwTt; as in Chris' -tian,bas' -tion; E-gijp'- tian is an exception : pronounced E-gyp'-shun. Sier are pronounced zher, or zhur, in bra'-sier, o'-sier. The letters gh, in most English words, are quiescent. In the following, they are pronounced like/: congh, chough, dough, enough, luvgh, rough, slough, tough, trough. H, after r, is mute ; as in rhetoric. G and k, before- ti, are mute ; as in gnaw, knave. W, before r, is mute ; as in icrest, lorong. In a few words, h after w is pronounced before it ; as in what, which, as if written hwat, hwich. In the termination en, e is usually mute ; as in broken, pronounced brokn. The final e is mute after Z, in the following syllables : ble, cle, die, fie, gle, kle, pie, tie, zle. B, after m, is mute ; as in dumb. L is mute before k, as in walk; before m, as in calm; and before/, as in half, calf N is mute after m, as in hymn. Ch has the sound of tch, as in chance; of sh, as in chaise; and of k, as in character. Ph are always pronounced like/ as in philosojghy; but they are silent in phthisic: pronounced tizzic. P is mute before s, as m. psalms; and before t, as in ptyalism, Ptolemy. In the terminating syllable of adjectives, ous, the letter o is always silent. The unaccented ?/, at the end of words, is short, like i, in pin, pit; as in glory, probity. In the plural of such words, ies are pronounced iz, as glories, pronounced gloriz. But y, in monosyllables, has its first sound ; as in dry, my ; and in verbs, the same sounds occur in the inflections ; as in fly, fiies; try, tries: pronounced /2>c, trize. In the termination /y, the y has its first sound; as in fortify. So also ?', in the last syllable of fortifies. S has its proper sound after/ p, k, t, and th, aspirate ; as in chiefs, caps, franks, pits, deaths. RULES FOR PRONUNCIATION AND ORTHOGRAPHY. XIU S has also the sound of r, after b, d, g, gh, I, m, n, r, s, and ss, ^r, v, aw, ay, ew, ey, mp, oy, sh, ng, th vocal, ch, oe, ie, and after c followed by e final ; as in robs, ■rd)es, races, rods, rides, rags, rages, toils, dreams, sighs, rains, bars, waves, roses, passes, mazes, laws, days, 7iews, preys, vows, joys, bnishes, sings, breathes, churches, foes, files. S, before m, has the sound of z; as in spasm, baptism. In many cases, a word, the better to express the pronunciation, is printed a second time, in letters most proper for the purpose. In this case, the pronunciation of the radical word is to be observed in the derivatives, unless otherwise noted : thus, bright is printed brite, to show the pronunciation; and this prommciation is to be observed in its derivatives; as brightness, brightly. The letter ii, it should be remarked, has the sound of yu in many words in which this letter forms a syllable by itself; as in u-yiit, u-nariimous, u-biquity, usurp; and in some monosyllables ; as in use, pronounced yuse. The present practice is to give u the sound of yu, in such words as nature, feature, rapture, which, are pronounced nat'-yur, fpat'-yur, rapt'-ynr. This practice seems to have been adopted to avoid the commoh corruption of a change of t into t.^h, as in natshur, a pronunciation condemned by some of the latest orthoepists. But in words of more syllables than two, this pronunciation oiu, as yu, in the last syllables, as in caricature, literoMre, juiicature, is not to be commended. The termination ed, in the past tense and participles of verbs, retains the vowel e in the vocabulary, for showing the proper orthography ; but in the customary pronun- ciation, this vowel is omitted, except after d and t: thus, abandoned, delivered, charmed, are pronounced abandond, deliverd, charmd; and in this work, the silent letter is Italicized. This rule extends to all cases, except to some formal uses, or to occa- sional uses of some words in verse. Some words of this class, howev^er, when used as adjectives, are pronounced in two syllables, though when used as preterits or participles, they are pronounced in one : thus, a Learned man, a blessed day, preserve the ed in sound. After d and t, this termination ed is, from necessity, pronomiced as a distinct syllable ; as in abraded, hated. • Accent is the more forcible utterance of a particular syllable of a word, by which it is distinguished from others. The accented syllable of a word serves, therefore, as a kind of resting place or support of the voice, which passes over the unaccented syllables with more rapidity and a less distinct utterance. Accent is of two kiuds. or rather of two degrees of force, primary and sccondanj. Words of one syllable can have no accent. Words of two syllables have the pri- mary accent only. Words of three and four syllables may have the primary and secondary accent; but many of them have no secondary accent that deserves notice ; such are dignity, e7icmj/,fi4tiity. In words of four, five, and more syllables, a second- ary accent is often essential to a clear, distinct articulation of tlie several syllables. Thus, heterogeneous can not be well uttered without two accented syllables ; the fourth syllable receiving the priacipal stress of the voice, and the first clearly distinguished by more forcible utterance than the second, third, fifth, and sixth. The accent of most Ens^lish words has been long established ; and, evidently, it has been determined by the natural ease of speaking, without the aid of rules or instruction. No general rule can be given for the accentuation of words of two syllables. It is, however, worth observing, that when the same word is both a noun or an adjective, and a verb, it happens, in man}'- instances, that the noun or adjective has the accent on the first syllable, and the verb on the last ; instances of which we have in ab'-sent, to absent' ; con'-cni, to concert'. In a few instances, the word has a different accent, when a novm, from that which it has when an adjective; as av'-gust, august'; gal'-lnnt, gallant'. Words often have a secondary accent, or what approaches a secondary accent, when used as verbs, which they do not have when used as adjectives : thus, moderate and dcldr.ra^c, when used as verbs, have a secondary accent on the last syllable, but not when used as adjectives. When these words are used as verbs, the a in the last syllable has the first or long sound. Words of three syllables, derived from dissj-llables, usually retain the accent of their primitives; thus, po'-ef,po'-etrss; vleas' -ant, pleas' -antly ; polite, poli' -test. 9 * C ■ ^^^ RULES FOR PRONUNCIATION AND ORTHOGRAPHY. In like manner, words of four syllables, formed from dissyllables, generally retain the accent of the primitives; as in colUd'-ihle from collect', ser'-viceabh from scr'-vice. In all cases, the preterit and participles of verbs retain the accent of the verbs. Words ending in Hon, sion, tian, cious, tious, cial, cian, tial, tiate, tient, cient, have the accent on the syllable preceding that termination; as mo'-tion, Chris'-tian, erudi'-tion, pa'-tieni. Words of more than two syllables, ending in ty, have, for the most part, the accent on the antepenult ; as gratu'-ity, propri'-ety, prospcr'-ity. Trisyllables, endingin mentjioT the most part, have the accent on the first syllable; as com'-pllment, dei'-rwient; but to this rule there are many exceptions, and particu- larly nouns formed from verbs ; as aviend'-ment, coriwicmd'-ment. AVords with the following terminations have the accent on the last syllable, except two: jliious, as super' -fl'uoiis; ferous, as vocif'-erous ; fluent, as circum! -fixtent ; cracy, as demo '-racy; gonal, as diag'-onal; gony, as cosmog'-ony ; mochy, as logom'-ochy; loqvy, as ob'-loquy; mathy, as polym' -athy ; meter, as barom'-eter ; nomy, as econ'-oviy; ogy, as philol' -ogy ; pathy, as ap'-athy, phony, as eu'-phony; parous, as ovip'-arous; scopy, as deuteros'-copy; strophe, as apes' -trofhe ; vomous, as igniv'-omous; vorous, as carniv'-orous; tomy, as anat'-oniy; raphy, as geog'-ra,phy. Compound words, as lool-case, ink-stand, pen-knife, note-book, usually have a slight accent, that is, one syllable is distinguished by sonie stress of voice ; but as the other syllable is significant by itself, it is uttered with more distinctness than the syllables of other words which are wholly unaccented. The rules for marking the letters with points are applicable only to English words in the vocabulary. The foreign words, printed in Italics, are not pointed. The accented syllable is distinguished by this mark ['] at the end; as in ta'-bor, ten'-or, det'-ri-ment When two accents occur after e and i, and before ci and ti, they indicate that the preceding syllable ends with the pronunciation of sh: thus, pre" -cious, m"-tiate are pronounced _??rf5/i'-ow5, vish'-ate, the ci and ti blending into the sound of s^. In such words as pronunciation, initiation, euphony seems to require that ciu and tia should be uttered in two syllables, pro-mtn-ci-a'-tion, in-i-ti-a -Hon, to prevent the repetition of the sound of sh. Two accents between n and g, or after ^, indicate that ng are proTiounced with a close articulation; as m.firi"-ger, lon"-ger. As Dr. Ash remarks, the different vowels in unaccented syllables are pronounced alike, or nearly so. Thus, in the words altar, alter, manner, manor, murinur, all the vowels of the last syllables have the same sound. Hence, it is generally useless to mark the unaccented vowels, their sounds being too obscure and indistinct to be defined, or to be accurately distinguished by marks. The nice distinctions between them, if any exist, are to be acquired only by usage and good taste. In general, the rules followed in this book are: 1. The usage of respectable people in England and the United States, when identical in the two coimtries, settled and undisputed. 2. When usage is unsettled or uncertain, the pronunciation is adjusted to the regular and established analogies of the language, as far as these can be definitely ascertained; having, however, in accentuation, some regard to euphony, or the prosaic melody, which proceeds from a due succession of accented and unaccented syllables. Though there are great differences in orthography in the English language, certain classes of words can conveniently be reduced to uniformity, as in the following examples : 1. Favor, candor, ardor, labor, color, clamor, parlor, error, tenor, Iwnor, splendor, rigor, armor, vigor, vapor, valor, inferior, superior, &r.c. ; and the derivatives in the same RULES FOR PRONUNCIATION AND ORTHOGRAPHY. XV manner without u, that the pupil need not be troubled with the u in labmir, and the omission of it in laborious; u in inferiour^ and not in inferiority, &c. 3. Music, public, cubic, and all similar words from the Greek and Latin, and some formed in analogy with them, without k. Most of these admit the tenninations al and ally; as 7)iusical, viusicalhj; and it is inconvenient to add k to the primitive word, musick, and be obliged to omit it in musical. Besides, the mark used on c, when it has the use of /^, supersedes the necessity of ^•. Exceptions. — Words which may be used as verbs, retain k, on account of the past tense and participles; as traffick, trafficked; fr click, frolicking. Words of Teutonic and Gothic origin, having never lost k, and not admitting an additional syllable, retain k; as hemlock, fetlock, loedlock. Monosyllables are also excepted; as sick, lick, lock; most of which may be used as verbs. 3. Defense, expense, offense, pretense, recompense, with 5 ; not solely because the Latin originals have s, but because the derivatives defensive, expensive, offensive, pretension, recompensing, must be written with s. 4. Blarfwhle, aJbatahle, debatable, tmvable, ratable, salable, reconcilaMe, and all similar words without e, except after c and^; as noticeable, changeable. 5. Befall, miscall, install, recall, forestall, inthrall, retain the II; for if one I is omitted in the primitive word, it must be restored in the participles befalling, &c. ; and it is a general rule in the language, that a before II, has its broad 'sound; {;naU and shall excepted.) Hence, if written befal, miscal, the pronunciation may be easily mistaken. For this reason, II should be retained in the nouns install- ment, inthrallment. 6. Foretell, distill, iv still, fulfill, retain II in the primitive, for it mast be retained in the participles and other derivatives ; as foretelling, distiller, &c. In this case, the pupil has only to learn tha t the spelling of the original words tell, still, fill, is retained in all the derivatives. 7. Connection, deflection, inflection, reflection, follow the spelling of the verbs connect, deflect, inflect, reflect. Complex and reflex are considered as the primitives of a differ- ent analogy, and the common spelling is retained. ^. All verbs, formed from the Latin and Greek izo, and others formed in analogy with them, are written with the termination ize ; as generalize, legalize, moralize. This termination, and ism, never change the accent of the original word. Words directly from the French priscr, and others from the French, generally retain the letter s; as surprise, enterprise, comprise, devise, revise, merchandise. 9. Monosyllabic verbs, ending in a single consonant, not preceded by a long vowel, and other verbs, ending in a single accented consonant, and of course not preceded by a long vowel, double the final consonant in all the derivatives, which are formed by a termination beginning with a vowel : thus, fit, blot, bar, when they take the teraiinations ed, eth, ing, are written fitted, fitteth, fitting ; blotted, blotteth, blotting; barred, barreth, barring''. The reason of this rule is, that without this duplication of the last consonant, the vowel of the primitive word would, in the derivative, be naturally pronounced wrong ; that is, with its long sound, filed, bloting, bared. Hence, we see the reason why verbs having the long sound of a vowel, do not double the last consonant; as feared, repealed, repeated. 10. When verbs of two or more syllables end in a single unaccented consonant, preceded by a single vowel, the final consonant is not doubled in the derivatives. Thus, we should write appareled, canceled, caviling, caviler, duelist, libeled, libelous, equaled, rivaled, traveler, traveling, quarreling, &cc. This rule, always admitted to be just, has been violated, probably from mere heedlessness ; there being no more XVI RULES POR PRONUNCIATION AND ORTHOGRAPHY. propriety in doubling the consonant in caviling, libeling^ than in limiting, pardoning^ 11. In the formation of the plural number of nouns ending in ance, ancy; ence, ency, the general rules are to be observed. When the letter e terminates a word, the letter s only is to be added; as in compliance, compliances; but if the letter y terminates a word, this letter is omitted, and ies are added : as in discrepancy, discrepancies. In some cases, the same word is sometimes written with e and sometimes with y; in which cases, the word admits of either form of the plural termination. DtiU, skill, will, full, &CC., retain II in all their derivatives, to prevent the incon- venience of exceptions to a rule. There is no reason for omitting one I in dulhiess, fullness, skillful, willful, which would not require the omission of one s in blissful, The orthography of dispatch, instructor, visitor, which Johnson altered without any good reason, not only in opposition to the practice of all that cluster of distin- guished authors who adorned the beginning of the last century, but in contradiction of his own practice, in some of his writings, has been restored. In many words, which belong to no class, and which are differently written in our books, the orthography which is most simple, or most agreeable to the etymology or to the pronunciation, is adopted.

Thus, Abansheas is the true pronunciation of the preceding word Abantias; &nd so of the rest. When the letters Evg. are put after a word, it is to show that this word is the preceding word Angli- cised. Thus, Lu'-can, Eng., is the Latin word Lucanus, changed into the English Lucan. Every a ending a syllable, with the accent upon it, is pronounced like the a in the English words fa-vor, ta-per, &c. Every unaccented a, whether initial, medial, or final, ending a syllable, has an obscure sound, bordering on the a in father.
