Strana 27 - Hurl'd often cuts off the vowel at the end of a word, when the next word begins with a vowel; though he does not like the Greeks wholly drop the vowel, but lull retains it in writing like the Latins.
Strana 29 - The last syllable of a word is called the ultima ; the next to the last, the penult; the one before the penult, the antepenult.
Strana 3 - THIS grammar states the essential facts and principles of the Greek language in concise form, with only so much discussion as may reasonably be demanded for a clear understanding of the subject.

In neuter words, the nominative and vocative are always like the accusative, and in the plural always end in -a. The dual has but two forms, one for the nominative, accusative, and vocative, the other for the genitive and dative.
Strana 37 - Inflection is a change in the form of a word to indicate some change in its meaning or use; as, dog, dogs; he, him.
