A
CRITICAL PRONOUNCING DICTIONARY
AND
EXPOSITOR OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.
The figures between the parentheses refer to the numbers in the Principles of Pronunciation prefixed to this Dictionary, where the different sounds of the letters are explained at large. Thus (73) refers to the first sound of the letter A; (93) to the first sound of the letter E; and so of the rest.
The figures over the letters refer to the vowels in the words at the top of the page; and the index ☞ before these words, refers to the table of simple and diphthongal sounds, where the different sounds of the vowels are exhibited at one view. Thus ☞ (559) refers to the table in the opposite page.
