Being an abridgement of the most useful dictionaries now extant; together with the addition of a number of words now in vogue not found in an dictionary. In which the definitions are concisely given, the words so divided as to lead to the present mode of pronunciation, and by a typographical character, the sound of the vowels and accented syllables are distinctly pointed out; and the parts of speech noted and explained for the use of schools in America.
