[ocr errors]

- Actually long vowels are marked without reference to syllabic quantity, and all vowels (in the words when first presented) not marked long are supposed to be naturally short, although the syllable may be long by position. The pronunciation will of course depend on the rules learned from the grammar.

[].— All matter in square brackets is etymological.

[Gr. Atoλos]. — A Greek word in brackets preceded by Gr. indicates that the Latin word is borrowed from the Greek one given.

[ocr errors]

[?]. The interrogation in brackets marks a doubtful etymology; after a word or suggestion it indicates, as usual, a doubt, or a suggestion not yet generally received.

†servo. -A dagger marks a stem, or, in some cases, a word not found in Latin, but which must once have existed. Such stems and words are printed in different type.

√FER. — The radical sign is used for convenience to indicate a root. By this is meant the simplest Latin form attainable by analysis; though, strictly speaking, a root is impossible in Latin, as roots had ceased to exist, as such, ages before Latin was a separate language.

as if.

The words as if indicate that a word is formed according to such an analogy, though the actual growth of the word may have been different. cf. - Compare, either for resemblance, contrast, or etymological kinship. wh. which.

(+).—The plus sign indicates derivation by addition of a termination; the process originally, of course, was one of composition.

reduced. The word reduced indicates the loss of a stem vowel either in composition, derivation, or inflection.

strengthened.

The word strengthened indicates a vowel change by which the length of a root vowel is increased; as div., †Dyau, ✅✔snu, †nau. weakened. The word weakened means that a vowel has descended the vowel scale; as from a to o or e, o to e or i, etc.

[blocks in formation]

Italics. Matter in italics is for translation; in Roman, is explanatory only.
