Book Description
Excerpt from Business Speller and Vocabulary IN Offering a new business speller, it seems desirable to indicate some of the features in which the book differs from other publications andto suggest methods in which it may be employed. It is in some ways desirable that words in a spelling book should be presented in a manner as nearly like the way they appear in ordinary print as is possible. In endeavoring to do this there has been a tend ency in recent years to neglect syllabication, that other great aid to spelling. In this book the words are divided into syllables, but, in order to retain the similarity to origin al print, hyphens are not inserted between the syllables.

Book Description
Excerpt from New Business Speller For these reasons the tendency has been to increase the number of words in the spelling books. New Business Speller has words, or about 1 000 words more than any other. So carefully have these words been selected, however, that every word in the book will be seen to be a useful one. The repetition of words has been worked out in such painstaking detail that, while all needed repetition for review has been given, the book is not bulky, nor is there any wasteful useless repetition.

Book Description
Excerpt from Marshall's Business Speller and Technical Word Book: For Business and Shorthand Schools Meanings. Effect and affec. Are commonly confused and some people seem quite incapable of distinguishing between them. The two words are from the same root, L. Facere, to make. But very different in meaning. Effect means to bring about or accomplish something. Affect means to act upon or change Thus: The order did not effect the purpose intended, although it did seriously affect the interests of many people. The keeper's unreasonable tales of the vorticity of the beasts under his care, led us seriously to question his veracity. (stupid or careless stenographers often confuse these two words, although they are entirely different, except in form.) See other similar words on pages 147-149 of the text. His inability to apply the prin crples of aliquot parts, largely neutralised his skill in computation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Business Speller and Vocabulary In offering a new business speller, it seems desirable to indicate some of the features in which the book differs from other publications and to suggest methods in which it may be employed. It is in some ways desirable that words in a spelling book should be presented in a manner as nearly like the way they appear in ordinary print as is possible. In endeavoring to do this there has been a tendency in recent years to neglect syllabication, that other great aid to spelling. In this book the words are divided into syllables, but, in order to retain the similarity to original print, hyphens are not inserted between the syllables. It is undesirable to respell more than is necessary, for in respelling false ideas are given as to the proper spelling of the word. Only those words have been respelled where there would be doubt as to the pronunciation. Some general principles regarding pronunciation of vowels are given in the beginning of the book, and an application of these principles has made it necessary to respell only a comparatively few words. No word has been respelled which is in strict conformity with these general principles, unless it is a word which is generally mispronounced. Each lesson is given a separate page, and there is enough material in the book for a lesson a day for forty weeks. Attention is called to the fact that the words in the first sixty-four lessons are grouped in accordance with certain rules for spelling. While many words in English violate rules of spelling, a knowledge of the application of certain rules is a distinct aid to proper spelling. The reading of a rule is of very little use, but when fifty or one hundred words applying the role are studied, the teacher, by calling repeated attention to the rule, may make it so emphatic that the student will thereafter apply it. The book will be found unusually complete in the common business terms, and in the more common technical words used in the various occupations and professions.
