PREFACE In publishing a new Spelling-Book, the Author considers it a duty to state, briefly, the reasons which have induced him to add another Elementary School Book to the extensive list already be- fore the public. For many years, parents and teachers have felt the necessity of giving to children, during the earliest part of their education, some just idea of the signification of words, and to meet that de- mand, Spelling-Books have been published with columns of syn- onyms, where one word is used to define another * but as those works failed to satisfy the public desire, Class-Books in Etymolo- gy, Analyzers, &c, in which the prefixes and suffixes are classified and defined, have been published to succeed the Spelling-Book. Notwithstanding this multiplication of books, there has been a continual call for some single work, containing such a classifica- tion as would furnish an easy method of teaching the correct spell- ing and pronunciation, and, at the same time, the true import of words. In the opinion of many of the most competent judges — eminent teachers, who have been consulted by the Author — The Student's Speller contains the classification which has been so long and urgently called for, and is now first presented to the public. Notwithstanding the remarkable simplicity of this classifica- tion, it is such that by learning to spell and define five thousand words, the pupil will obtain a knowledge of the spelling and sig- nification of about fifteen thousand. The correctness of this state- ment will be readily admitted by any one who will turn to the sixty-fourth page, and consider the following suggestions. i a m ^ — — ■ — ~ j vi PREFACE. Let the pupil learn to spell and define the forty-three words printed in the first lesson on that page, and then the eighty-six de- rivatives formed by the addition of ed and ing, the suffixes at the head of the page. The analogy which exists in the formation of derivative words is so complete, that by learning to spell and define any additional number of primitive words, which form derivatives by the annexa- tion of the same suffixes, the pupil will obtain a knowledge of all the derivative words thus formed. The same may be said of the derivatives formed by the use of other suffixes. Thus, by learning to spell and define one word, the pupil obtains a knowledge of the spelling and signification of three, which is a gain of two hundred per cent., and makes The Student's Speller of proportionately greater value to the learner, than the spelling books heretofore published, in which every word must be studied and learned by itself. The fact that Webster's Dictionary, Unabridged, is obtain- ing a wide and rapidly increasing circulation, and is henceforth to be regarded as the standard in this country, seemed to require the publication of a Spelling-Book to teach the orthography and ortho- epy of the language as contained in that work, (as many changes have taken place in the language since the publication of the Ele- mentary and other spelling-books,) and it is confidently believed that the publication of this work will supply that demand. THE AUTHOR. New- York, Sept. 1850. *- — THE STUDENT'S SPELLER. SE CTION I. Language. — Its Elements, &c. Any medium by which persons and animals express their ideas, thoughts, feelings and emotions, is termed language. Language consists of sounds and signs. The language of sounds is addressed to the ear, and is termed vocal language. The vocal language of man is termed articulate ; that of brutes inarticulate. The language of signs is addressed to the eye. and is named in accordance with the nature of the signs. When used in writ- ing and printing it is called written language. The vocal English language contains about forty elementary sounds, which are represented in the written language by the twenty-six characters or letters constituting The English Al- phabet. The sounds in the English language are divided into three classes, termed vocal, sub-vocal, and aspirate sounds ) and the let- ters which represent them are called vocals, (or vowels,) sub*vo- cals and aspirates. The vocal sounds proceed from the larynx and are uttered with open organs ] the sub-vocals come from the larynx, but in uttering them the organs are either closed or nearly closed, and the sounds are essentially modified by the organs of speech — the palate, tongue, teeth and lips. The aspirate sounds are formed by a forcible exhalation, modified by the organs of speech. There are fourteen vocal sounds numbering from first to four- i _ — h 8 THE STUDENT'S SPELLER. teenth, as represented by a, e 3 i\ o, and u in the words ale, arm, all, at, me, met, ice, it, no, do, not, sue, wp, full. There are fifteen sub-vocal sounds, numbering from first to fifteenth, as represented by b, d, g, /, /, m, n, r, v, w, 3/, z, ng, and £/&, in the words bud, leg, jet, Zirae, nor, live, wet, i/et, adz, azure, sing, this. There are ten aspirate sounds, numbering from first to tenth. as represented by /, h, Jc, p, s, t , c&, sh, th and Wi, in the words if, Ae, &eep, sit, rich, fish, thin, ivhen.^ Two vocal sounds united in one syllable are termed diphthongal sounds, and the combined letters representing those sounds are called diphthongs ; as oi in coil, oy in boy, ou in loud, ow in now, and oy in buoy (boo i) . The union of two or more letters to represent but one sound is termed & combination, as ea in heat, ee in feet, eau in beau, ch in rich, ng in sing, ti in nation, ce in ocean, &c. Note. — It is not expected that young pupils will memorize the preceding de- finitions and explanations. They are intended for the use of teachers and advanced classes of pupils. The latter may study them to advantage in connection with the analysis of words, as illustrated on page 14, which is a valuable exercise for those who desire to become familiar with the elements of the language. The following questions are designed for the use of such pupils. Questions. — What is language? Of what does language con- sist ? To what is the language of sounds addressed, and what is it termed ? What are the vocal languages of men and brutes termed ? To what is the language of signs addressed ? When used in printing and writing what is it called ? How many ele- mentary sounds does the vocal English language contain ? By what are those sounds represented in the written language ? Into how many classes are the elementary sounds divided, and what names are given to those classes ? What are the letters called which represent each class of sounds ? How are the vocal sounds formed? The sub -vocal ? The aspirate? How many vocal sounds are there ? Give them in their order. How many sub- vocal sounds are there ? Give them in their order. How many aspirate sounds are there ? Give them in their order. What is the union of two vocal sounds in one syllable termed? What term is applied -0 the union of two or more letters to represent one sound? * It will be observed that the author represents thirty-nine elementary sounds in the English language. Some believe there are not as many, and others think there are more. £ _ __ THE STUDENT'S SPELLER. Characters Used to Designate Sounds, Accent, &c. This mark ( y ) denotes the accented syllable, as no'ble, hum'- ble, a bide 7 , re pel'. When placed over a syllable, the words which follow have the same syllable accented until otherwise indicated. The figures and numbers from 1 to 14 are used in the spelling lessons of this work to indicate the vocal sounds. 1 in- dicates the first vocal sound. 2 the second, 3 the third, &c, — 14 indicating the fourteenth. When a figure or number is placed over a word or syllable, the vocals, (or vowels.) in the accented syllables of the words which follow have the sound thus denoted until another sound is indicated. The italic g denotes the fourth sub-vocal sound, as heard in jet. gem. Th in italic represents the fifteenth sub-vocal sound, as heard in this, h&the. The italic c and ch denote the third aspirate sound, as heard in &ite, cat, nec'tar, chord, &che. S in italic denotes the twelfth sub-vocal sound, as heard in acLz, his. The Roman x represents the third and fifth aspirate sounds, as heard in tax, (taks) ; in italic it denotes the third and twelfth sub-vocal sounds, as heard in exact, exalt: (egz act', egz alt'). The italic n indicates the fourteenth sub-vocal sound, as heard in sing, sink, anger, : (singk, ang' ger.) The third and eighth vocal sounds combined, are represented by ox and oy, as heard in coil, boy; the second and fourteenth are represented by ou and ow, as heard in loud, now ■ and the tenth and eighth are represented by oy, as heard in buoy, (booi). sometimes represents the tenth sub-vocal sound, as heard in choir, (kwire,) and in a few instances the tenth sub-vocal, and thirteenth vocal sounds, as heard in one, once, (wun, wuns). A syllable is one sound or letter, as o ; or a union of sounds or letters which may be uttered by a single impulse of the voice, as boy. A word is composed of one syllable, or more • as, faith, faithful. A phrase is composed of two or more words; as, pleasant children. A sentence contains a union of words form- ing complete sense • as, pleasant children have many friends. tt ■ ; THE STUDENT'S SPELLER. Table of Sounds. The following table represents the thirty-nine elementary sounds in the language. The left hand column contains the figure indicating the number of the sound; the second column con- tains the letter or letters which are usually considered its natural representative; and the words opposite contain the letters and combinations in italic which sometimes represent that sound. It would be well for every teacher to practice pronouncing the first column of words, commencing with ale. arm, all, &c, and then dropping the other letters pronounce the vocal sounds in their order. He may then teach them to all his pupils, with ease, by representing them on the blackboard, and having the school repeat them in concert. The pupils should subsequently be taught, in the same, or a similar way, to give the sub-vocal and aspirate sounds. They should then be taught to spell words by giving their elementary sounds.

WORDS, ACCENT, EMPHASIS, &C. A word of one syllable is a monosyllable j of two. a dissyllable ; of three, a trisyllable ; and of four or more, a polysyllable. A primitive word is the root, or a word in its simplest form ; as, man; a derivative word has some addition; as, man/?/. A prefix is placed before the primitive or root ; as, imkind : and a suffix after it : as, kindness. Accent is a forcible stress of voice placed on a particular syllable ; emphasis is a forcible stress of voice placed on one or more words in a sentence; and cadence is a fall of the voice at the end of a sentence.

ANALYSIS OF WORDS. A few examples will serve to illustrate a suitable method to be adopted in the analysis of words. Words may be analyzed without giving their definitions, but where that can be done, it is better, as in the second example. First Example. — Ace, is a primitive word, monosyllable, composed of two sounds and of three letters : a is a vocal, repre- senting the first vocal sound ( )#; c is an aspirate, representing the fifth aspirate sound, ( ) ; e is silent, or has no sound in this word.f Second Example. — Choir, is a primitive word, monosyllable, composed of four sounds represented by Jive letters : ch is an as- pirate combination representing the third aspirate sound, ( ) • o is a sub-vocal, representing the tenth sub- vocal sound, ( ) ; i is a vocal, representing the seventh vocal sound, ( ) • r is a sub-vocal, representing the eighth sub -vocal sound, ( ) ) the word is pro- nounced kwire, and signifies a collection of singers. Third Example. — Doubtful, is a derivative word, dissyllable, composed of seven sounds 'and eight letters : d is a sub-vocal, rep- resenting the second sub-vocal sound, ( ) ; ou is a diphthong, rep- resenting the second and fourteenth vocal sounds combined, ( ) ; b is silent; t is an aspirate, representing the sixth aspirate sound, ( ) ; f is an aspirate, representing the first aspirate sound, ( ) ; u is a vocal, representing the thirteenth vocal sound, ( ) ; I is a sub-vocal, representing the fifth sub-vocal sound, ( ) ; and the word is pronounced douV ful. Fourth Example. — Inkstand, is a compound word, formed of the two words ink and stand, a dissyllable, composed of eight sounds, represented by eight letters : i is a vocal, representing the eighth vocal sound, ( ) ; n is a sub-vocal, representing the four- teenth sub-vocal sound, ( ) ; k is an aspirate, representing the third aspirate sound, ( ) ; s is an aspirate, representing the fifth aspirate sound, ( ) ) t is an aspirate, representing the sixth aspi- rate sound, ( ) ) a is a vocal, representing the fourth vocal sound, ( )) wis a sub-vocal, representing the seventh sub-vocal sound, ( ) ; d is a sub-vocal, representing the second snb-vocal sound, ( ) ; and the word is pronounced ingkstand. When y terminates an unaccented syllable, it represents the eighth vocal sound, as in holy, &c; ai in faith, eauin beau, iew in view, &c, are termed vocal combinations ; th in that, ng in sing, &c, are termed sub-vocal combinations; wh in whip, ss in mass, &c, are termed aspirate combinations. * Where a parenthesis is given, it is intended that the analyzer shall give the sound represented by the letter. f E is usually termed a vocal, because it represents a vocal sound, but when a letter or combination represents no sound, as e in this word, it should neither be termed a vocal, sub-vocal, nor aspirate.

TKE STUDENT'S SPELLER. THE LION. The lion is called the king of beasts. His form is noble, his look bold, his gait proud, and his voice ter- rible. He runs swiftly, and has great strength. The teeth of the lion are sharp and strong, and his tongue is rough with hard prickles, which point back- ward. The male lion has a long, thick mane, which covers his head and neck. It begins to grow when he is about three years old, and grows many years. He has five long, sharp claws on each fore foot, and four on the hinder ones. His eyes, like those of the cat, seem best formed for seeing in the dark. For this reason he is seldom seen during the day, but at night he roams abroad in search of his prey. He lies in wait until some beast comes that way, when with a great leap he bounds upon it, tears it in pieces, and eats its flesh. His roar is very loud, but, when angry, his cry is louder and more terrible than his roar. Then he lash- es his sides with his tail ; his long mane seems to rise and stand, like bristles, round his head. He moves the skin of his face, and his shaggy eye- brows, which half cover his glaring eyes ; thrusts out his tongue and his dreadful claws ; and sometimes ut- ters a fierce and terrible cry. 42 THE STUDENT'S SPELLER. SECTION IV. METHODS OF TEACHING. This section contains words of one syllable, classed with reference to their form- ing derivatives by the addition of particular suffixes. Pupils need not, usually, be required to commit the definitions of the suffixes by studying them, as they will soon learn them by repetition during exercises in spel- ling. The following suggestions may serve to illustrate some of the best methods of teaching children to spell and define words by the aid of the lessons in this section, and other similar ones. First Method. — Commencing with aid, in lesson first, page 43, the teacher should pronounce, and the pupils spell all the words in the lesson, in the same man- ner they would pronounce and spell the words in any lesson. The derivative words should be spelled during the same exercise, and as soon as the primitive words, or those printed in the lesson, have been spelled, the teacher should return to the first word in the lesson, and pronounce aided, ailed, &c. As soon as he has pro- nounced aided, the pupil first in order should spell it, and immediately define it by saying " did aid.'''' The next pupil should spell and define ailed in a similar manner, and each pupil, in his turn, should spell and define his appropriate word, until every word in the lesson, from aided to strained, has been pronounced by the teacher, and spelled and defined by the pupils. The teacher should then return again to the commencement of the lesson, and pronounce aiding, ailing, &c; and the pupils, each in his turn, should spell the words, and define them " continu- ing to aid, continuing to ail, &c, until all the words from aiding to straining have been spelled and defined. Second Method. — Commencing with aid, as before, let the teacher pronounce that word to the pupil first in order, and let him spell it. The second pupil should then pronounce, spell and define aided, and the third one, in his turn, should pro- nounce, spell and define aiding, without those words being pronounced by the teacher. The teacher should then pronounce aiU the fourth pupil spell it, and the fifth and sixth pupils, in their turn, should pronounce, spell and define ailed, and ailing, without their being pronounced by the teacher. Let the same course be pursued until all the words in the lesson have been spelled. Third Method. — Let the teacher be furnished with a slip of paper containing the definition of the primitives, or of each word as printed in the lesson. Let him, (the teacher,) then pronounce, spell and define each of those words. Commencing again with aid, the teacher would say "aid ; a i d aid ; to assist." The first pupil should then say, "aided, aid aid, ed ed, aided; did assist;" and the second pupil should follow with "aiding ; a i d aid, i n g ing, aiding ; continuing to as- sist." The teacher should then pronounce, spell and define ail, and the third and fourth pupils, in their turn, pronounce, spell and define ailed, and ailing. Proceed in this way until all the words in the lesson have been spelled. By pursuing methods similar to these, young pupils will soon learn to spell and define words with great facility, and will, at the same time, acquire much use- ful knowledge in relation to the construction of the language. More advanced scholars may frequently write their exercises on slates. As soon as the teacher has pronounced aid, every scholar in the class should write " aid ; aided, did aid ; aiding, continuing to aid," &c. ; going through with the lesson in like manner. At another time the teacher may pronounce, spell and define aid, as suggested in the third method, and the pupils may write "aid ed, did assist, or did render assistance ; aid ing, continuing to assist," &c. ; pursuing the same method throughout the lesson. For a different exercise, as soon as the teacher has pronounced aid, every pupil in the class should write one, two or more sentences, including the primitive and derivative words ; thus, "John went to aid his friend, and while aiding him, George asked him why he aided that man." Continue this exercise until all the words in the lesson have been written in a similar manner. When pupils are writing sen- tences, particular attention should be paid to the capitals and punctuation, as well as to the spelling of the words. — See notes on pages 35 and 37. -* THE STUDENTS SPELLER. 43 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 I 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 nor, lire, tret, yet, adr, azure, sing-, this. Aspirates.— If, he, keep, sit, rich, fish, thin, why. ed, signifies did ; was ; or were. ing, signifies continuing to ; tending to. These suffixes may be joined to the words in all the following lessons, until other suffixes are given. Rule 1. — Primitive words ending in d or t are pronounced in two syllables when ed is added ; thus, aid ed, bait ed, &c. Other words are spelled in two syllables, but pronounced in one; thus, ail ed, arid; arch ed, archt, &c.

See Rule 4th, page 55. b un may be prefixed to many of these words after ed is added ; as ?m-aided, wn-aired, &c ; and to some, both before and after ; as, wn-chain, wn-chained, &c. un signifies not ; to take off ; to take out ; to deprive of ; to free from, ; as, unaided, not aided ; unchain, to take off the chain, &c.

When a word is used to express an action it is termed a verb ; as, speak, run, think; &c. The same word is sometimes u noun, and sometimes a verb ; as, l thought of a kind friend, and the thought was pleasant In this ease the first thought is a n rh. and the second a noun. \\ hen a word exj the name of a single object it is termed a noun in the singular number ; as. man, boy. fly. &c. ; and when a word expresses a name SO as to indicate more than one object, it is termed a noun in the plural number: as. men, boys, flies. &c. When a word expresses the action of a single person or thing, it is termed a verb in the singular number; as the boy plays, the bird flies, &c. ; and when a wordexpi the actions of more than one, it is termed a verb in theplural number; as. the boV8 play, the birds/?/, &c. It will be observed that a noun of the singular number, and a rerb of the plural number, have the same form ; as, a fly eats ; the birds fly, &c; and that & plural noun and a singular rer6, have the same form; as, the flies eat, the bird flies, &c. This will suffice to show that the same rule usually applies to the forming of plural nouns and singular verbs. Rule 4. — The plural of nouns, and the singular of verbs, are usually formed by adding 5 to the primitive word ; as, walk, walks ; cake, cakes ; &c. ; but when the primitive terminates with o, s, i, z, ch, or sh, the change is effected by adding es to the primitive; as, veto, vetoes; kiss, kisses; box, boxes; buzz, buzzes; trench, trenches; wish, wishes, &c; and in words terminating with y, preceded by a sub-vocal or aspirate, the y is changed to i, and es is added ; as 11 y, 11/cs, &c* LESSON 3 2.— XXXII. 9 9 grope 9 store 9 smoke ii lodge yoke probe clothe stone solve choke quote stroke ou 12 close score gore course u force snore oa ii rule mope hope loathe dodge fame LESSON 3 3.— XXXIII. 12 12 13 ou it III curve Oil lounge cure lure puke tune bruise cruise 13 u purge grudge plunge oi gouge rouse souse bounce pounce spouse flounce ow prune mge poise jounce drowse * In some words ending with / and/e, those terminations are dropped, and ves is added ; as loaf, loaves ; knife, knires, &c. -» THE STUDENT'S SPELLER. -a 1 2 34 56789 10 11 12 13 14 12 3456 Vocals— Ale, arm, all, at, me, met, ice, it, no, do, not, sice, wp, ft/11.

This difficulty arises from the want of some rule by which to determine when it should be ei, and when ie. Those who will carefully study the following rule, and closely observe the few ex- ceptions to it, will henceforth find no difficulty in spelling this class of words. Rule 7. — When e and i are combined to represent the fifth vocal sound, or long sound of e, the i precedes the e, making it ie, except when that sound is preceded by the fifth aspirate sound, or hissing sound of s, when e is placed first, making it ei. Exceptions. — siege, financier, either, neither and leisure, with their derivatives, constitute the few exceptions to this rule. Note. — The following words, with their derivatives, constitute nearly the entire list of words in which ei represents the fifth vocal sound. 5 5 5 5 ceil de ceit' con ceil/ ei' ther seine de ceive re ceipt nei ther seize con ceive re ceive leis ure TIME. I saw a child rejoicing in its youth — the idol of his mother, and the only pride of his father. I returned, and hoary locks were upon the head of the child. Trembling with the weight of years, he stood, the last of his generation — a stranger amidst the desolation around him. I saw an oak stand in all its pride upon the moun- tains ; the birds were carolling on its boughs. I re- turned ; the oak was sapless and barren, and the winds were playing through its leafless boughs. " Who is this destroyer ? " said I to my guardian angel. " It is Time," said he. " When the morning stars sang together for joy, over the new-made world, he commenced his course; and when he shall have de- stroyed all that is beautiful on the earth, plucked the sun from his sphere, 'and veiled the moon in blood; yea, when he shall have rolled heaven and earth away as a scroll — then shall an angel from the throne of Grod come forth, and with one foot on the sea, and one on the land, lift up his hand towards heaven, and swear, by Heaven's Eternal, Time was, Time is, but I Time shall be no more !

NATURAL HISTORY OF BEASTS AND BIRDS, showing their compara- tive size, and containing anecdotes, illustrating their habits and instincts. The immense sale of Dr. Comstock's books, renders it probable that they are familiar to most teachers. They are so admirably adapted to the school-room, that the " Philosophy " has been republished in several European countries. Revised editions of several of these works have been recently issued, including late discov- eries and improvements. The publications of P., W. & Co. are well printed, and neatly and substantially bound. They are also furnished at low prices. P., W. & Co. have always for sale an assortment of School and Miscellaneous Books, Blank Books, Paper, Pens, and Stationery, suited to the wants of Country Loalers.
