xxii.
NG
has
two
sounds,
one
as
in
anger,
the
other
as
in
fin-ger.
**
xxiii.
N
after
m,
and
closing
a
syllable,
is
silent;
as
in
hymn,
condemn.
xxiv.
P
before
s
and
t
is
mute;
as
in
psalm,
pseudo,
ptarmigan;
pronounced
sarm,
sudo,
tarmigan.
xxv.
R,
has
two
sounds,
one
strong
and
vibrating,
as
at
the
beginning
of
words
and
syllables,
such
as
robber,
reckon,
error;
the
other
as
at
the
terminations
of
words,
or
when
succeeded
by
a
consonant,
as
farmer,
morn.
xxvi.
Before
the
letter
R,
there
is
a
slight
sound
of
e
between
the
vowel
and
the
consonant.
Thus,
bare,
parent,
apparent,
mere,
mire,
more,
pure,
pyre,
are
pronounced
nearly
baer,
paerent,
appaerent,
me-er,mier,
moer,puer,
pyer.
This
pronunciation
proceeds
from
the
peculiar
articulation
of
r,
and
it
occasions
a
slight
change
of
the
sound
of
a,
which
can
only
be
learned
by
the
ear.
xxvii.
There
are
other
rules
of
pronunciation
affecting
the
combinations
of
vowels,
&c.;
but
as
they
are
more
difficult
to
describe,
and
as
they
do
not
relate
to
errors
which
are
commonly
prevalent,
we
shall
content
ourselves
with
giving
examples
of
them
in
the
following
list
of
words.
When,
a
syllable
in
any
word
in
this
list
is
printed
in
italics
[like
this],
the
accent
or
stress
of
voice
should
be
laid
on
that
syllable.
