Titolo

A rational way of teaching [[electronic resource] ] : Whereby children, and others, may be instructed in true reading, pronouncing and writing of the English tongue; in an easier and speedier method, than any hitherto publish'd. Containing, I. Rules for spelling, reading, and pronouncing of all English words II. Words of all sorts, from one to seven syllables, both whole and also divided. III. An explanation of the true use and meaning of all points and stops, both reading and writing. IV. A transcription of some chapters out of the First Book of Chronicles, both in whole words, and also divided into syllables; for the easier learning to read hard proper names. V. Directions how to spell and write true English together with two useful tables. I. Of such words as are altogether alike in sound, but quite different both in significetion [sic] and spelling. II. Shewing the signification and meaning of words derived from other languages, and made English; very necessary for all such as are ignorant of the Latin tongue. With several pieces of writing, curiously ingraven on copper-plates. Also some useful presidents. / / By T. Osborn, school-master
