Book Description
Excerpt from A French Grammar: Presenting, in a Concise and Systematic Form, the Essential Principles of the French Language; Including English Exercises to Be Translated Into French, and a Carefully Graduated Series of French Exercises, With Full Vocabularies At each step in the course herein pursued, a thorough familiarity with all that precedes is supposed, and to that end, frequent reviews are recommended; or, rather, each lesson should, as far as practicable, begin at the beginning of the book, that, when it is completed, the pupil may have entirely at command an amount Of grammar sufficient to explain all the more common forms and constructions Of the language. On finishing the First Part, or the Etymology, or even earlier, a simple reading book may be placed in the hands of the pupil, and he should be required to apply the principles which he has learned to the words in his reading lesson. Thus, a lesson in French, instead Of being a mere imitative and memoriter exercise, may be made an excellent means Of drill and discipline. Following the general principle of avoiding arbitrary and mechanical processes, and cultivating thought, the genders Of nouns, the feminine of adjectives, and the conjugations Of verbs are not given in the vocabulary when these may be ascertained by the rules and exceptions. Particular attention is invited to the tabular view Of the the irregular verbs. In this table the five primitive tenses, or principal parts, of the verbs are given, with which the student should be made perfectly familiar, and the other parts are readily Obtained from these by the introductory rules. The inflection, in full, of the present indicative, which is the most useful, as well as the most irregular tense, is given by some grammarians. It is hoped that Tables I. And II., at the beginning of the list, with the explanatory rule, will be found of essential service, materially diminish ing the difficulties and apparent irregularities which this tense presents.
