6 Q...u ANTITY ANP Q...uALITY OF TUE VOWELS.
Consonants enumerated and dilliin,5'UU~into Class•••
Consonants are divisible into mutes, .emi.vO'Wel., and l;quids.
The mutes·are suck as emit nO sound without a. vowel, as b, p,t. d,
1, and c andg hani.
The .emi''iJowe!. are such as ..mit a sound without the concurrence
of a vowel, as/. 'll, s, Z, x, g soft, or j.
The liquid. are such as flow into, or unite easily with the mutes, as
i,m, ft, r.
Besides these, there is another classification of the consonams, of
.great importance to a just idea. of the nature of the letters, and t!latis,
into such,. as are .barp orflat, and .imple or a.pirated.
,The .barp consonanh are p,/. t, s, k, chard.
Theji,u consonants are b, 'fI, d, z, g hard. .
The .imple consonants have always the sound of one letter unmix·
I'd with others, as a, p, f, v, k, g hard, and g soft, or j: .
The mixed or aspirated consonants have sometimes a hiss or aspirat
ion joined with them, which mingles with the letters, an': alters
its sound, as t in motion, ti in soldier, • in mi••ion, and z in azure.
There is another distinction of consonants arising eithe. from the'
seat of their formation, or from those organs which are chiefly employedin
forming t'hem. The best distinction of this kind seems to
'be that which divide. them inw labials, dentals, gutturals, and nasals.
The labials are b, p,f,.,. The dentfl[. are, t, d, s, z, and soft g orj.
The gutturals are k, q, c hard, and IJ hard. The nasals are m, n,.and

OF THE NATUR~ OJ' ACC'EN'T;
the length of time ta,ken up in pro~oun~ingtheI!" Thi, distinction..
which is denominated theIr quantity, IS so ObVIOUS as to h.we bee"
adopted in all languages; and though the short sounds of lome vowels
have not in our l:lIlguage been el&ased so ac.curately as their parent long
ones, yet this has bred but little confusion, as they are ",Iways &ufli.
£lently distinguishable.
The next distinction of vowels into their specifick soundlf, most
generally ..dopted, aria.es. from the di~erent ~pertures ,of the mout'"
in forming them. ThIs IS termed their qualIt)', :md divides themInto
open &nd .bu,.
Though the term' long and short, as applied to vowels, are pretty
generally understood, an accurate ear will easily perceive that theydo
not always mean the long and short sounds of the respective vowels
to which they are applied; for if we choose to be directed by the ear
in denominating vowels long or short, we must certainly give these
appellations to those sounds only which have exactly the lame radio
cal tone, and differ only in the long or short emission of that toM.

OF THE NATURE OF ACCENT.
The accent ~f the ancients is the opprobrium of modern criticism:
Nothing can liliow more evitiently the fallibility of the human faculties
than the total ignorance we are in at present 'of the nature of the
Latin and Greek accent. This would be still more surprisin" if a.
&imilar phenomenon did not dllily present itself to our view. Theaccent
of the English Language, which is constantly sounding in our
ell-rs, seems as much a. mystery a~ that accent which is removed alO'
most two thousand years from O\lr view. Obscurity, perplexity, and
confusion, ruuduough every tr,;eatise Oil the subject, and nothin;
could be 50 hopeless as an attempt to explain it, did nota circumstallce
present, itself, which at once accounts for the confusio., and affords
a Clew to lead us out of it.
Not one writer on accent has given such a definition of the voice
as acquaillts !IS withits e'6ential properties: they speak of hi~han(t .
loud and soft, quick and slow, but they never once mention th~f
king property which distinguishes speaking from sinling sounds an
which, from its sliding from high to low, and from low to high,'maT
not irn,[Jroperly be called the infiection ofthe voice. No wonder, wheiJ,
writers reh this out of the accollnt, that they should bll!nder a.bout
the nature of accent: it was impossible they should do otherwise.':"
]3ut let us once divide the voice into its rising and falling inflection5~
the obsc\1rity vanishes, and accent becomes as intelligible as anyother
part oflanguage. ,
Ke~ping this distinction in view, let ~s compare the accented syllable
With others, and we shall £ud thiS general conclusion may be
drawn: .. The accented syllable is always louder than the rest: but
If when it has the rising i~lIectiOR, it is higher than the preceding, anel
"lowe! tha.n .the succeedmg syllable; and when it has the {alling-in..
If flectIOn, It IS pronounced higher as well:J,S louder than the other
~'syllables, either preceding or succeeding." The. Qnlrexception ,t9

ACCENT ON DISSYLLABLES.
this rule'h, " when the accent is on the last syllable of a word which
~. has no empnasis, and which is the concluding word of a discourse."
The different positiryn8 oj the English .1cce1lt.
Accent in its very nature, implies a comparison with other sy \lables
less forcible; hence we may conclude that monosyllables, properly
speaking, have no accent: when they are combined with other mono»yllables
and form a phrase, the stress which is laid upon one, in
preference to others, is called emphasis. As emphasis evidently
points out the most significant word in a sentellce; so, wbere other
reasons do not forbig, the accent always dwells with greatest force
on that part of the word which, from its importance, the hearer has
always the greatest occasion to observe; and this is necessarily the
rOltt, or body of the word. But as harmony of termination, frequently
attracts the accent from the root to the branches of words, so the
Erst and most natural law of accentuation seems to operate less in fix.
ing the stress than any of the other. Saxon terminations, indeed,
with perfect unif,?rmity, leave the principal part of the word in quiet
possession of what seems its lawful property; but Latin and Greek
terminations, of which OUr language is full, assume a right of preserving
their original accent, and subjecting many of the words they beatow
upon us, to their own classical laws.
, Accent, therefore, seems to be regulated, in a great measure, by
etymology. In words from the Saxon, the accent is generally on the
root; in words from the learned languages, it is generally on the ter·
minarion; and if to these we add the different accent we lay on some
words, to distinguish them from others, we seem to have the three
·great principles of accentuation; namely, the radical, the terminational.
and the distinctive•
.I1ccent on Dis8!Jllable8.
Every word of two syllables has necessarily one of them accented,
and but one. It is true, for the sake of emp11asis, we sometimes lay
an equal stress upon two successive syllables, as di-rect, some.times;
but when these words are pronounced alone, they have never more
than one accent. For want of attending to this distinction, some
writers have roundlyassened, that many dissyUables have two ac·
cents, such as con,,0', concourse, discord, shipwreck: in which and similar
instances, they confound the distinctness with which the latter
.yllables are necessarily pronounced, with accentu:.1 force; though
nothing can be more different. .
, There is a peculiarity of accentuation in certain words of two syllables,
which are both nouns and verbs, that is not unworthy of notice;
the nouhs having the accent 011 the first syllable, and the verbs on the
last. This seems an instinctive effort in the language, (if the expression
wi11 be allowed,) to compensate in some measure for the want
of4ifferent terminations for these dinerent p.arts of speech. The
following are " few of the words which admit of this diversity of ac~
~ent.· "

10 ACCENT ON TRISYLJ~ABLES, l'xC•
.flccent on Trisyllabla.
. A~ words i~crease in syllables. the more easily is their accent known.
~ouns sometimes aCCJuire a syllable by becoming plural; adjectives
Increase a syllable by being compared; and verbs, by altering their
tense, or becoming participles; adjectives become adverbs, by adding
ly to them; and prepositions pi"ecede nouns or verbs without altering
the accent of the word to which they are prefixed: so that when once
the,accent of dissyllables is known, those polysyllables, whose terminatlonli
are perfectly English, have likewise their accent invariably
.iettled.
But 10 few verbs of three syllables follow the analogy observable in
those of two, of protracting the accent to. the last syllable, that this
economy seems peculiar to dissyllables: many verbs, indeed. of three
syllables, are compounded of a preposition of two syllables; and then,
according to the primary law of formation, and not tae ~econdary of
distinc~ion, we may esteem thent radical, and not distinctive: sueh
are contrr:dict, imercede. supersede, COlttraband, circumscribe, superscribe,
lie.: while the g~neralityof words ending in the verbal terminations
:8t? and ize, retain the accent ofthe simple, as criticMe, tyranise, modern­
Zze, &;c.; and the whole tribe of trisyllable verbs in ate, very few except.
ed, refuse the accent on the last syllable: but words of three syllables
often t~ke their accent from the learned languages from which they
are d~nved; and this makes it necessary to inquire, how far English ac.
Cent 1S regulated by that of the Greek and La.tin.
On t!le Injluence of the Greek a'ul Latin .flcetmf, on the .flccent oj
English Polysyllable.. •
As our Language borrows so largely from the learned languages,
it is not wonderful that its pronunciatiOn should be in some measure
influenced by them. The rule for placing the Greek accent was, indeed,
essentially different from that of the Latin; but words from
the Greek, eoming to us through the L!ltin, are often so much latini.
z8d loS to lose their original accent, l.nd to fall into that of the Latill;
and it is the Latin accent which we must chiefly regard, as tilat which
influences our own.
The first general rule th;Jt may be laid down is, that when words
come to us whole from the Greek or Latin, the same accent ought to
be preserved as hi the original: thus borizcm, sonOl'O"', decoflim, dictator,
gladiator, mediator, iielator, rpectator, adultttor. &c. preserve
tAe penultimate accent of the original; and yet the antepenuhimate
tendency of our language has placed the accent on the first syllable of
oratour, senator, auditor, cicatrix, pluh01"", &c. in opposition to the
Latin pronunciation of these worde, and would have }nfallibly done
the same by abiOllTLen, hitumen, and awrnen, if the J~arne~ had nO'!.
stepped in to rescue these claSSical words from the mveslOn of the
.Gothick accent, and to preserve the stress inviolably on bile second
sy~lable: nor has eVlln the interposition of two consonants been always
"al.ile to keep tIJ.e accent from m~l1ntinguP.to the a.ntepenultimate syl~

SECONDARY ACCENT.
Jab/e, as we may see in minister, sini.ter, character, &c.; and this may
be said to be the favourite accent of our language.
But notwithstanding this prevalence of the antepenultimate accent,
the general rule still holds good; and more particularly in words a lit~
tIe removed from common usage, such as terms in the arts and sciences:
these are generally of Greek original, but coming to us through
tbe Latin, most commonly cqntract the Latin acc,ent when adopted
into our language.
The next rule we may venture to lay down as a pretty general ont'
is. that if the words derived from the learned languages, though an:
glicised by altering the termination, contain the same number of syl.
lables as in the original langua~s, they are generally to be pronoun.
ced with the same accent: that is, with the same accent as the first
person present of the indicative mood, active voice, or as the present
participle of the same verb•
. When English polysyllables are derived from the Latin by drop.'
pmg a syllable, scarcely any analogy is more apparent than the coin.
cidence of the prmcipal accent of the English word, and the seconda.
ry accent we give to the Latin word, in the English pronunciation of
it. Thus parsimony, ceremonv, matrimony, &c. have the accent on
the first syllable, because, inpronouncing the Latin wordsparsimonia. c£umonia,
matr~rrumi4, &c. we are permitted, and prone in our Eng.
lish pronunciation ofthese words, to place a secondary accent on that
syllable. ,
With respect to the quantity of the antepenultimate syllable in po.
Iysyllables, It may be observed, that, regardless of the quantity of the
orirrinal, we almost, without exception, follow the analogy of our
own language. This analogy uniformly shortens the vowel, unless
it be u, followed by a single consonant, or any other vowel, follow.
ed by a single consonant, succeeded by a semi.consonant diphthong:
thus the first u in dubious is pronounced long, though short in the La.
t.in word dubius. The same may be observed of the e and 0 in medi.
um and emporium: and the first i in delirium, and the first e in delicate,
are pronounced sh6rt in English, according to Our own analogy,
though these lettersare long in the Latin delirium and delica~.
SECONDARY ACCENT.
The secondary accent is that stress we may occasionally place upon
another syllable, besides that which has the principal accent, in order
to pronounce every pan of the word more distinctly, forcibly, and har_
moniously. Thus this accent may be placed on the first syllable of
con'Versation. commendation, &c.
Almost every writer on this subject has noticed t~vj) accents on the
longer polysyllables, and supposed bOlh equally necessary to the prop_
er sound of the word, without any other diJI"erence than that one was
pronounced more forcibly than the other. This mistake arose from

ACCENT.
t1'abanJi. ctJraV!II!; and 'Violin, partiu.n, artisatl. courtesa1t, tnetnpbysicf,
have frequently an accent on t:1e first. ag well as on the third s'ylhble.
though a somewhat Jess forcible O;:le. The same may be observed of
reptJrtee. rifi:ree, pri'Vateer, domineer. &'c.; bm it must·still be observed.
that though an accent be allowable 011 the first syllable of these words,
it is by no means necessary: tlley m1Y all be pronounced with one accent.
and tbat on the Iil,st syllable, ,-ithcut the least deviation from
propriety.
In ord~r to give some idea of.the 111tU:'e of the secondary acc.ent.
let US supIJOse that, in giving Ollr opin,on of a" astronomical argument,
we say,_U It is a dr"r;ct denr.a}?;traL"Qn if t!:;e Copernican sJlS·
te'Jn. n In this sentence, as an accent:; n~c€ssarily upon. the last sylla..
ble of direct, we seldom lay a stress 00 the first sylb.ble of de7lwnStration,
unless we lnean to be UnCOffil110r;Jy ernphatical; but in the fotlowing
sentence,-" It i8 tZ d;nz.onstr!Lt/c.'l qf the Coternican aysteml·
here, as no accented word precedes ckmollstratioll, the ~'oice finds a
rest, and the ear a force, in placing an accent on the first, as well as
on the third syllable.
But though we may, or may not, usa tlte secon:dary accent at pleasure,
it is by no means a matter of ind;fference on what syllable we
place it: this is fixed with as much certainty as tlte place of the principal
accent itself, and a wrong position of one ""Juld as muchderange
the sound of the word as .. wrong position of the oth~r: and it Inust be
carefully noted, that though we lay no stress upon the syllable whick
may have the secondary accent, the consonants and vowels have exactly
the sa.me sound as if the doubtful syllable, (as it may be called,)
were accented.
It may be observed. in the lirst place, that the secondary accent is
always two syllables, at least, distant from the principal accent: thus

In treating this part of pronunciation, it will not be necessary to
enter into the nature of that quantity which constitutes poetry; the
quantity here considered will be that which relates to. words taken
singly; and this is nothing more than the length or shortness of the
vowels, either as they stand alone, or as they are differently combined
with the vowels or consonants.
\lIfhere the compound retains the primary sense of the simple"
and the parts of the word are the ,arne in every respect, both in and
out of composition, then the preposition is pronounced in a distinct
syllable; but when the compound departs ever so little from the lite·
ral sense of the simples, the same depanure is observable in the pronunciation;
hence the different syllabication and pronuncIation of r/lo
com-nunc_, and r~-oll~-tnelrd; the former signiF,es a repetition of a
commencement, but the latter does not imply a repetition of a commendation:
thus re-pftition would signify to petition again, while repetition
signifies only an iteration of the same act, be it what it will.­
The same rnay be observed of the words re·create and '·.c-reate, reformation
and rif-()rmation.
From what has been seen of accent and quantity, it is easy to per.
ceive ho\v prone onr language is to an ~.ntepenuILjmateaccent, and
how naturally this accent shorteas the vowel it falis upon: nay, so
great a propensity have vowels to shrink under this accent, thar the
diphthong itself,.in some words,

2it
Q..UANTITY OF UNACC~NTED'VOWELs, &c.
wishes to convey by this division, a knowledge of its constituent parts,
a.s ortbo-grG.pby, tbea-logy, &c.
In the same manner, a person who is pre-acquainted with the
whole compound sound of a word, and wants to convey the sound of
each part to one unacquainted with it, must divide it into such par.
tial sounds, as, when put together again, will exactly form the whole,
as 'or-tbog-ra,pby, tbe-ol-o-gy, &c. This is the method adopted by
those who would convey the whole sound, hy giving distinctly every
pllrt; and, when this is the Object of syllabication. Dr. Lowth's rule
is certainly to be followed. .. The best and. easiest rule," says the
learned hishop, .. for dividing the syllables in spelling, is, -to divide
•• them as they are naturally divided in a right pronunciation, with•
.. out regard to the derivation of words, or the possible combination
'J of consonants, at the beginning of a syllable."
In this view of syllabication we consider it only as the picture of
actual pronunciation; but may we not comider it as directed likewise
by some laws of its own? Laws, which arise out of the very natue
of enunciation, andthe specinck qualities of the letters? These laws
certainly direct us to separate double GOnsonants, and such asare un·
combinable from the incoalescence of their sounds: and if such a se·
paration will not paint the true sound of the word, we may be cer·
tain that such sound is unnatural, and has arisen from caprice.
Ofthe Quantity of the Unaccented Vowels not in the 8ame Syllable -with
Con80nants.
Accented syllables, are so strongly marked. as to be easily comprehended
when they are once settled by custom or analogy; . but
those immediately before or after the accent are in a state of un.
certainty, which some of Our hest judges find themselves unable
to remove. Some grammarians have called all the open vowels
before or after the accent short, though the ear so evidently die.
tates the. contrary in the" in utility, the 0 in obediellce, &c. Some
haV4iHiaved thamselves the trouble of further search hy comprehending
these.vowels under the epIlhet obscure; nay, sO unfixed. do the
sounds of these vowels seem. that Dr. Kenrick, whose Rbeton:cal Die.
tio,Ilry shows he was possessed ofvery greatphilological abilities, seem.s
as much at a loss about them as the meanest grammarian; for when
he cm,:s to mark the sound of the vowelo in the first syllable of a.
series of words with the accent on the second, he makes the 0 In
promulge, iJropt:l. and prolix, long, as they ought to be; and the same
le:ter in probwcis. proceed, ,Utd pmcedure. short.
I know it may be demamicd WIth great plausibility, how do 1
know that there is not this very inconsistency in eustom itself? .W h~t
,,,ason ilave I to suppose that custom is not as vague and caprlclOUs In
lhe.e syiia,l>les as in these under the accent? To which I answer; if
ell .tom ha~ determined the sound of these vowels, the dispute is at an
end. I implicitly acquiesce in the decision, but if professor> of the
g. di,agree i" their opinions, it is a shrewd sign that custom is not ~!.
to,e'her so clear ill its sentence; and I must insi&t Oil recurring to prmcilJles
till custom h..s unequivocally decided.
