On The Study Of Words

Bag om On The Study Of Words

""On The Study Of Words"" is a book written by Richard C. Trench that explores the intricacies of the English language. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which delves into a different aspect of language, such as the history of words, their meanings, and their origins. Trench also discusses the importance of language in society, and how it has evolved over time. Throughout the book, Trench provides numerous examples of words and their usage, as well as anecdotes and stories that illustrate the power of language. ""On The Study Of Words"" is a fascinating exploration of the English language that is sure to appeal to anyone interested in linguistics, history, or literature.But a caution is necessary here. We must not regard as certain in every case, or indeed in most cases, that the first rise of a word will have exactly consented in time with its first appearance within the range of our vision. Such identity will sometimes exist; and we may watch i the actual birth of some word, and may affirm with confidence that at such a time and on such an occasion it first saw the light--in this book, or from the lips of that man.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
