A GREEK AND ENGLISH DICTIONARY,


Comprising all the words in the writings of the most popular Greek authors ;
with the difficult inflections in tliem and in the Septuagint and New Testament; designed for the use of Schools and the under-graduate course of
a Collegiate Education. Second Edition.

TO WHICH

IS

NOW ADDED,

AN ENGLISH-GREEK VOCABULARY.
BY THE REV. JOHN GROVES.
In

thick Vol. 8vo. containing 700 pages, closely printed, price 15s. boards.

In the arrangement of this work the alphabetical method has been adopted,
as best suited to the capacity of young learners. Immediately after each
is placed its form of declension or conjugation, together with any
peculiarity attending it
such as the Attic genitive of contracted nouns, the
future or perfect of any dialect peculiar to certain verbs, &c. Next is placed
the derivation or composition of the word. Particular attention has been paid
to this part of the work.
In most Lexicons the bare theme is usually set
at the end of the word, without any attempt to shew how it forms a part of
the word to which it.is thus attached, and often without any signification in
Latin or English; but in this, the composition or derivation, generally followed by the original theme, is set before the English signification, so as
to catch the eye. The English of these words is always given, so that the
connexion between them and the present word may be perceived, and a
judgment formed how the one is deduced from the other.

word

The English significations of the Greek word follow pext. These have
been selected from a careful comparison of the Latin of Stephens's Thesaurus, Scapula, Damm, Schleusner, and other Lexicons.
In this part
two or three synonymes have been given for each signification ; and the
most usual or vernacular expressions have been introduced, that thus the
Greek sentence may fall into familiar English. After the significations, are
subjoined any irregularities or varieties arising from dialect, &c. j and some
of the more difficult inflections of each word are added.
This Dictionary will answer for the study of Homer, Lucian, Xenophon,
auch of the Greek Tragedies as are usually read in Schools, the Septuagint,
New Testament. Every vord in this last book, Avith every variation
of case, gender, number, and mood, will be found in it, and the quantity
and doubtful vowels are carefully marked.

with so much pains, and so much credit to himself, this valuable work is
for the first time rendered accessible to every student of Greek ; while, by the
derivative being given, and a list of Damm's arrangement being added to the
work, the more advanced students are enabled to trace with facility the Avithor's etymology.
The German idioms have been retained, but with an
English Translation added, which renders this Dictionary, termed by the
late Professor Young " a divine book -the Bible of the Greek language,'* the
most valuable and agreeable assistant to the Greek student either in this
Country or the Continent. And the Publishers have pleasure in announcinif
that they are enabled to reduce the price from four to three guineas.

Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin. A new Edition, corrected.

JOHNSON'S ENGLISH DICTIONARY,

with

WALKER'S Pronunciation added. Revised, corrected, and enlarged, with


the addition of several thousand words in the arts and sciences, by Robert
&. Jaaieson, Esq. of Lincoln's Inn; beautifully printed upon superfine
laid paper, demy 8vo, 2d edition, corrected. Price 14e. boards.
$t The object of this work is to combine the merits of the most popular
Dictionaries, especially those of Johnson and Walker, so as to supersede the
necessity now felt of having more than one Dictionary even for the ordinary
purposes of the English student; and at the same time, in avoiding their
defects and redundancies, to preserve the same dimensions as the ordinary
octavo abridgment of Johnson.

The course which has been adopted is, first, the exclusion of many words,
now standing in Todd's edition of Johnson, which neither by use or analogy
are English; and the introduction of Avhich, either in writing or conversation,
would draw upon the person using them the charge of pedantry or vulgarity.
Secondly, in the common abridgments of Johnson, the authors' names are still
retained ; while the quotations, shewing the various acceptations in which
the words were used by such authors, and which alone could make their
names valuable, or even necessary, have been excluded, llany of these are
names of no authority beyond that of having appeared in print, while their
perpetual recurrence has contributed to swell the volume, to the exclusion of
really valuable matter. These names have been dispensed with ; and the space
obtained by their omission, and by the omission of useless words and obsolete
acceptations, has been devoted to the insertion of all such technical words as
are now in use, and which the general reader is likely to meet with, and
expected to understand; these have been given from the best authorities.
Among such additions are many which have been compounded for or applied to
recent inventions,
of general notoriety, and which therefore demand a
place in an English vocabulary.
To these may be added many words, which,
but a few years since, might have been deemed obsolete or homely, but which
having been of late most deservedly revived by writers of transcendant merit,
now contribute both power and beauty to the most vigorous and polished
compositions of the age. These, without descending to mere provincialisms,
have been carefully inserted.

The pronunciation of Walker has been generally followed, though the


Editor has not felt himself bound in all cases to adopt his mode of expressing that pronunciation.
The principal deviation from Walker's system has
been in the restoring of certain letters, for which others of a similar or
nearly similar sound have been unnecessarily substituted.

The

and typographical beauty of the mode suggested by the Puband adopted for the first time in the present Work, of marking the difby the points, instead of the figures, will be

The application of artificial memory to the purposes of literary study

Continent.
Indeed, every student insensibly adopts the principles of a
memoria technica, and associates particular recollections with, some palpable
most likely to perpetuate them. Tke Author of the
