Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Analysis, Parsing, and Composition: Designed for Beginners

The instructions are given in conversational form; and the aecom panying exercises are so arranged, that a lesson once learned, cannot be forgotten. As a guide to the analysis of sentences, a series of ques tions, the answers to which clearly indicate the office of each word; and a system of delineation, that will enable the student to dispose of each word as soon as its office has been determined, are introduced. In parsing, the delineations are also of great assistance but they should be discarded so soon as it is discovered that their use is no longer a necessity. The praxes for analyzing and parsing are kept entirely sepa rate; the paradigms are materially shortened; and the rules are made more general in their application, thus reducing their number. Numer ous exercises in composition and false syntax are also inserted through out the work, in order to give pupils a practical training, and to impress on their minds the importance of this study.

Excerpt from Analysis, Parsing, and Composition: Designed for Beginners

This little work has been prepared especially for the purpose of overcoming the difficulty experienced by teachers, in their efforts to inspire in the minds of their pupils a desire for the study of language. The attention of educators is therefore directed to the methods by means of which the author seeks to make this study a source of pleasure, as well as of profit, to children.

The instructions are given in conversational form; and the accompanying exercises are so arranged, that a lesson once learned, cannot be forgotten. As a guide to the analysis of sentences, a series of questions, the answers to which clearly indicate the office of each word; and a system of delineation, that will enable the student to dispose of each word as soon as its office has been determined, are introduced. In parsing, the delineations are also of great assistance; but they should be discarded so soon as it is discovered that their use is no longer a necessity. The praxes for analyzing and parsing are kept entirely separate; the paradigms are materially shortened; and the rules are made more general in their application, thus reducing their number. Numerous exercises in composition and false syntax arc also inserted throughout the work, in order to give pupils a practical training, and to impress on their minds the importance of this study.

This treatise has been submitted to actual test in the class-room, and found to answer all expectations. The pupils never become wearied, and acquire in a short time a fair knowledge of the structure of the English language. In the hope that it may prove to be the introductory work so urgently demanded, it is now submitted to teachers by the author.
