JSEW YORK:
PUBLISHED BY N. & J. WHITE, 63 Wall Street
NEW HAVEN : DURRIE & PECK.
STEREOTyPED BY A. CHANDLER, NEW YORK.
1835.
Entered according to the Act of Congress in the year one thousand eight
hundred and thirty-three, by Noah Webster, LL. D. in the Clerk's Office
the District Court of Connecticut.
The annexed Testimonials of iJie merit of Dr. Wehstcr^s BooJcs are selected
from a great number of recommendations received by the Publishers.
The following is subscribed by more than ONE HUNDRED MEMBERS OF THE LAST
CONGRESS:
" The subscribers highly appreciate Dr. Webster's purpose and attennpt to improve the
English language, by rendering its orthograpny more simple, regular and uniform, and by
removing difficulties arising from its anonialies. It is very desirable that one standard
dictionary should be used by the niimerous millions of people who are lo inhabit the vast
extent of territory belonging to the United States ; a» the use of such a standard may prevent
the formation of dialects in states remote from each other, and impress upon the language
uviformity and stability. It is desirable also that the acquisition of the language should be
rendered easy, not only to our own citizens, but to foreigners who wish to gain access to the
rich stores of science which it contains. We rejoice that the Jlmerican Dictionary bids fair
to become such a standard, and we sincerely hope that the author's elementary books for
primary schools and academies will commend themselves to the general use of our lellow
citizens."
Washington^ February^ 1831.
(For other recommendations see last page.)
TiiE general rule which I have observed in settling the orthography of certain classes of
\voi Is, is Uniformity in words of like formation ; that is, a rule without an exception ; for
exc( ptions give to learners more trouble than rules.
examfi.es.
1. Favor, candor, ardor, labor, color, clamor, parlor, error, tenor, honor, splendor, rigor,
arn)jr, vigor, vapor, valor, inferior, superior, &c., and the derivatives in the same manner
witl out M, that the pupil need not be troubled with^the u in labour, and the omission of it in
laborious ; u in inferiour, and not in inferiority, &c.
2. Music, public, cubic, and all similar words from the Greek and Latin, and some formed
in analogy with them, without k. Most of these admit tlie terminations, al^ and ally ; as
nms cal, musically; and it is inconvenient to add k to the primitive word, musick, and be
obli' ed to omit it in nnisical. Besides, the mark used in my books on c, when it has the use
of/i supersedes the necessity of A;.
K ccept/ovs. — Words which may be used as verbs, retain k, on account of the past tense
and participles ; as traffick, trafficked ; frolick, frolicking.
V\ ords of Teutonic and Gothic origin, having never lost k, and not admitting an additional
sylij ble, retain k; as hemlock, fetlock, wedlock. Monosyllables are also excepted; as sick,
lick lock ; most of which rnay be used as verbs
3. Defense, expense, offense, pretense, recompense, with 5 ; not solely because the Latin
orig nals have 5, but because the derivatives, defensive, expensive, offensive, pretension,
recompensing, must be written with s.
4. Blamable, abatable, debatable, movable, ratable, salable, reconcilable, and all similar
woi is without except after c and o- ; as noticeable, changeable.
B jfall, miscall, install, recall, forestall, enthrall, retain the // ; for if one I is omitted in the
prin itive word, it must be restored in the participles, befalling, &c. ; and it is a general rule
in t le language, that a before 11^ has its broad sound ; (jnall onri shall excepted.) Hence, if
wri ten befal, miscal, the pronunciation may be easily mistaken. For this reason II should
be r itained in the nouns installment, enthrailment.
6. Foretell, distill, instill, fulfill, retain II in the primitive, for it must be retained in the
^ ; pari ciples and other derivatives; as foretelling, distiller, oiui-
ed, is short; as in ab'sent, defend', predict', alledg'e, convuls'e.
When the accent is placed atter, or in a syllable that contains a pointed vowel, or a dijth-
thong, that vowel or diiUithong has its proper sound; as in debar', remov'e, adjoin', annoy',
avow', abound', rejoic'e.
The vowel e, at the end of a word, forjns no syllable in any word of English origin; but
when it follows a consonant prp<>eded by a single vowel, it indicates that vowel to be lona, ag
in late, mete, note, tune, gyve. When it follows two or more consonants, the vowel of that
syllable, if unpointed, is usually short, as in abridge, lodge.
A double accent before ci and tiy iiidicates that these letters are pronounced like ^-A, and
close the syllable; thus, vi"cious, facii"tious, ini"iial, are pronounced vish'ous, faciish'ous,
inish'al.
When a word of more syllables than one has a pointed vowel, and no mark of accent, the
pointed vowel designates the accented syllable. Some words, mostly compounds, have two
syllables with pointed vowels ; in which case there is little diiference of accent.
When of two vowels together, one only is pointed, liiat Jias tlie sound indicated by the
point, and the other is mute; as course, briiid, hoarse, fruit, alhiy, flow.
The digraphs ee, ea, ei, ic, when neither vowel is pointed, have the sound of e long— a/ and
ay, the sound of a long, and oa, that of 0 loiig.
Letters in the italic character are silent.
The letters gh are never pronounced, except in a few words which are noted in their plivie.
In all words beginning with w/i, the h precedes lo in pronunciation, except in a few wo* da
which arc noted in their place.
H after r is always silent, as in rhetoric.
G and K before n are always silent, as in gt»at, know.
I after / has usually a liquid sound, like y \n alien, pronounced alyen.
W before r is mute, as in wrest, pronoinicei.' rest.
K final in ihc terminations bU^ de, dic,Jie,glc, klc.ple, lie, zlc, is silent.
The combinations ce, ci, ti before a vowel are usually pronounced as s7i ; as in cetaceous,
gracious, ingratiate, pronounced cetaslius, graslius, iugrashate. It is said in some English
books, that, in many such words, c or t alone has the sound oi' sh, and therefore ingratiate la
to be pronounced ingrasheate. This is a great mistake ; it is the combination of c or t with
the following vowel, that forms the soiuid of sh ; and the measure of Engiisli verse, in all tht
best English poetry, requires this coinbination to be thus pronounced.
The sound of a before r, is that of ai ; as in snare, parent, prepare.
The combination tion usually forms a single syllable, pronounced shon or shun^ as in mo-
tion, conviction.
The combination sion forms in like manner, a single syllable, pronounced shun^ as in con-
fession. But after a vowel, it is usually pronounced zkun^ as in fusion, contusion. A few
exceptions to these rules ^re noted in their place ; as is tlie pronunciation of the combinationa
sicr^ tier.
Ph have the sound of/, as in philosophy, pronounced filosofy.
P before s is mutiBs'as'iin psalm, psalter.
C, afters, andH)elore e, i, and ?/, is usually silent, as in scene, science, Scythian, pronounced
sene, sience, Sythian. Before A:, c is conside'i^jA as silent, as in sick, lock.
Oil and oi^. when o is not pointed, are diphma»gs, and pronounced uniformly, as in soundi
vow, ...
*TiTe diphthongs oi and oij have their proper soun4^.as in join, joy.
^^u, and aiD ai e digraphs, and have the sound of broa^ a in fall.
Tvvo accents between ii and or after indicate that ng are pronounced with a close
articulation, as in fin"ger, lon"ger.
The pronunciation of the vowel in a derivative word is usually the same as in the primitive.
Thus, firm being pronounced ferm, the derivatives are tdy^ pronounced in the same manner;
as fernm'ess.
An astei%k or star, after the past tense or participle of a verb indicates that the final letter
d may be j!t5d usually is blended in pronunciation with tho^preceding syllable, the vowel e
being dropjued,, and d taking the sound of t. Thus abasecTafessed, are pronounced abast,

It has feeen a received opinion in this country that Walker's 2***»^ary is the standari of
pronunciation in England. This is a mistake ; the English mHo^ no book whatever the
only standard of pronunciation is the practice of the higher classes w^ocicty. Many of \V ilk-
er's peculiarities have been condemned by all later writers on^ruioepy, Jones, Perry and
Jan»eison. From observations which the author of this work made during several month
residence in England, it appears that, with the exception of a very few words, English well
bred people pronounce precisely like educated people in New England.
The orthography of Johnson in such words as piibNck, logick, &c. has been out of us< in
England for njany years, although still seen in the dictionaries of Walker and other authors.
It is rarely or never seen in any other respectable book, or in any paper or periodical. The
letter u is retained in ardour, favour, honour, and some other words, at least by most writ< rsj
but Valpy, the learned publisher of the Latin Classics, has rejected this letter; and in an ele-
gant edition of Shakespear, now hi the press, he spells honor, favor, error, ardor, acordin:;; tc
the orthography used in Washington's Letters, in tliis country, and the orthography of \Vet>-
Btcr's Spelling Book and Dictionaries.

THE £ND.
The estimation in which this system is heldy hy many gentlemen of erudition^
appears from the following testimonials :
"The merits of Dr. WEBSTER'S Avicrican Dicliovnry of the English Language, are
very extensively acknowledged by that part of tlie conimuiiily Cor whose immediate use it waa
designed. We regard it as a great improvement on all the works which have preceded iu
The etymological department throws new and striking light on the liistory of language ; the
vocabulary is enlarged by the addition of many thousand words, comprising the technical
words of science and the arts; words not found in other diciionaries, and matiy of them the
words for the precise meaning of which the general reader is most frequently at a loss ; the

epelling, is conformed to the preseiit usaire of the best writers; and the deJittUions have a
character of discrimination, copiousness, perspicuity and accuracy, not found, we believe, in
any other dictionary of the English language.
" The value and success of that work will no doubt contribute towards securing for the

putable exception, are conformed to the best modern usage; but, in addition to this impraytj-
inent, the selection and classification of the spelling lessons — the adaptation of the reading
lessons to the gradually expanding faculties of children — and tiie simplicity of the scheme for
exhibiting the pronunciati
