Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Grammar School Speller and Definer: Embracing Graded Lessons in Spelling, Definitions, Pronunciation, and Synonymes, Proper Names and Geographical Terms, a Choice Selection of Sentences for Dictation, and a Condensed Study of English Etymology
The grammar school speller and definer is de signed to furnish the teacher with one book containing the material necessary for a thorough course of instruction in English orthography and orthoepy.
Experience proves that an excellent oral speller must not be expected to spell equally well On paper; and that a pupil who has a perfect knowledge Of an extensive list of words finds it a difficult task to write an ordinary sen tence from dictation. Hence the division of the work into oral, written, and dictation exercises.
