Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual of Etymology: Containing Latin and Greek Derivatives, With a Key, Giving the Prefix, Root, and Suffix
The Manual of Etymology has been prepared in response to a demand for an advanced work, based on the same principles and presenting the same features as the Model Etymology.
The work is progressive, and is specially adapted to use in the class-room. Commencing with affixes, it carries the pupil, by easy gradations, through the Latin derivatives, each word being illustrated by a sentence containing some historical, scientific, or interesting fact.
In preparing Part III., which treats of Greek roots and derivatives, it has been the aim of the author to remove those obstacles which long experience in teaching has shown to exist.
Each division of the subject ends with a Review.
The Key
Is a valuable feature of the work. It analyzes every word about which a doubt could arise, and gives not only the prefix and root, but also that most difficult part, the suffix.
