Excerpt from The Spanish Language, as Now Spoken and Written: A Complete Theoretical and Practical Grammar Designed for Every Class of Learner With Copious Examples and Exercises
The present work is submitted to the public as the result of the almost unremitting labour of many years, and of long experience in teaching Spanish.
Its author, a native of Spain, had not only the advantage of a liberal education in his own country, but by a residence of many years in England has acquired a thoroughly competent knowledge of the English language and of the needs of students of the Spanish tongue.
In every division of the book it has been his aim to minimize, as far as practicable, every obstacle that the Spanish language presents to the student, and to make every difficulty subordinate to rule; thus rendering the acquisition of this rich, expressive, and manly language a pleasing task. The principles of Spanish Grammar will be found clearly expounded and enforced by suitable exercises, each rule and observation being accompanied by appropriate examples. The greater number of the sentences intended to elucidate the peculiar construction and genius of the Spanish language have been selected from the works of the best Castilian writers.
The latest decisions of the Royal Spanish Academy, especially with respect to the new orthography, have been adopted, and it is carefully pointed out wherein the new differs from the old, so that the learner, in reading Spanish works not printed with the new orthography, may know in what the difference consists.
