Word Study and English Grammar: A Primer of Information about Words, Their Relations and Their Uses

By Frederick William Hamilton

Thia volume, and those which follow it in Part VI of this series, is a compilation from various sources. The occasion does not call for an original treatise, but it does call for something somewhat different from existing text-books.

The books prepared for school use are too academic and too little related to the specific needs of the apprentice to serve the turn of those for whom this book is intended.

On the other hand the books for writers and printers are as a rule too advanced for the best service to the beginner.

The authors of this Part, therefore, have tried to compile from a wide range of authorities such material as would be suited to the needs and the experience of the young apprentice.

The tables of irregular verbs are the same as those used in "English Grammar for Common Schools".

The student is recommended to study some good grammar with great care. There are many good grammars. The one used in the schools in the apprentice's locality will probably do as well as any.

The student should learn to use the dictionary intelligently and should accustom himself to using it freely and frequently.
