An etymological chart, exhibiting, at one view, just definitions of all the parts of speech; the modifications and inflections of such as are variable; and the rules by which these variations are formed: comprising the complete etymology of the English language; an exact scheme of the dependence, connexion, and ramifications of its several parts; and a concise and clear explanation of all its appropriate terms. The whole carefully compiled from the best writers on English and universal grammar; but peculiarly adapted to Lindley Murray's English grammar; and proposed as a useful synopsis to those who have studied, or may study, that excellent work. By Adam Taylor.
