Excerpt from A Comprehensive Pronouncing and Explanatory Dictionary of the English Language: With Vocabularies of Classical, Scripture, and Modern Geographical Names

The vocabularies of Greek, Latin, and Scripture Proper Names, which are inserted in this volume, have been revised with much care. About 3000 Greek and Latin names have been added to those which are found in Walker's Key to the Classical Pronunciation of Greek, Latin, and Scripture Proper Names; and the pronunciation of a number of words, in relation to which Walker has been shown by other prosodists to be incorrect, has been corrected.
