Excerpt from Un Philosophe Sous Les Toits: Journal D'un Homme HeureuxWith regard to the etymologies given in the Vocabulary, the editor is inclined to advise the teacher to make but sparing use of them. They are put down mainly for purposes of reference. A glance at the derivation of a word will Often give a fuller insight into its meaning, and serve as an aid to memory. At the same time, it will be well to remember that for beginners the study Of ety mology is useful only in so far as the student is already familiar with the words or language to which he is referred, or in so far as his study of the derivation is prompted by intelligent curiosity. The form given as etymology is that from which the word has actually come, so that the student need not be surprised at finding a Latin nominative in one place and its accusative in another.The editor takes this opportunity Of expressing his thanks to Mr. Geo. E. Shaw, b.a., Toronto Collegiate Institute, for assistance in revising the proof of the Vocabulary, and for many valuable suggestions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
