REMARK 1.-IN PART I. we have considered by analysis, 2. The Elements which compose a Sentence or a Phrase. 4. The Analysis of Sentences-Proximate and Ultimate. REM. 2.-In our progress through PART I. we have seen, 1. That the Proximate Analysis of a Sentence consists in resclving it into its immediate Constituent Elements. 2. That the Ultimate Analysis of a Sentence consists in reducing its Proximate Elements to the WORDS which compose them, REM. 3. We have next to consider the history of WORDS-considered as ultimate Elements of Sentences-including 1. Their Formation. 2. Their Functions. 3. Their Classifications. PRIN.-The Science of Language embraces, 1. ORTHOGRAPHY-which treats of the Structure and Form of Words. 2. ETYMOLOGY-which treats of the Classification and Modification of Words. 3. SYNTAX-which treats of the Relation and mutual Dependence of Words. 4. PROSODY-which treats of the Arrangement and Utterance of Words. REM. A true system of Analysis requires that the Functions of Words be discussed previous to the consideration of their Elements. Hence we have placed ORTHOGRAPHY in the Appendix to this Work. CLASSIFICATION AND MODIFICATION PRIN.--Words are distinguished by by their Uses. I. THE FORMS OF WORDS. PRIN. By their forms, Words are dist Radical or Derivative, Simple or Compound. DEF. 52.-A Radical Word is a word derive its original from another word in guage.
