Excerpt from The Fundamental Words of the Greek Language: Adapted to the Memory of the Student by Means of Derivations and Derivatives, Passages From the Classical Writers and Other Associations
The prepositions, some pronouns and conjunctions, and a few other words, are printed in capitals, as they are the foundation of language, and should be learnt before the rest of the words. The words in italics are allied to those, to which they are at tached, either by derivation or by apparent identity of origin. The Notes consist chiefly of dubious derivations, of translations of Greek passages which are quoted in the text, and of explana tions of English or of Latin derivatives.
The writer has gathered his materials from any quarter from which he could obtain satisfaction. To the claim therefore of originality he makes few pretensions. He has however occa sionally ventured a suggestion, as in the derivation of aira'm, Gait, xe'nog, rim, 8m. He has endeavoured to avoid the numerous absurdities of both ancient and modern etymologists; and, if he has laid aside what is puerile, he hopes he may claim pardon for sometimes introducing what perhaps is merely specious.
