"Dr. Latham's work is not only an English Dictionary in the strict meaning of the term, but in many important respects a very valuable addition to our national Lexicography. It deserves to be studied by everyone interested in the language, and as a book of reference is admirably fitted for general usefulness."-Edinburgh Review.

"THIS TRULY GREAT PHILOLOGICAL WORK is now brought to a conclusion. To the VOCABULARY of the original work, which has always been considered defective, Dr. Latham has made so many Additions that his work may fairly be pronounced the MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND COMPLETE that has hitherto been ATTEMPTED. He has very properly admitted PROVINCIAL WORDS having an undisputed ancient origin; those WORDS OF FOREIGN ORIGIN which have been incorporated bodily into the English language; purely COLLOQUIAL PHRASES, and MODERN SCIENTIFIC TERMS, and COMPOUNDS of recent date. Another important improvement upon the original has been made in the ETYMOLOGY, all conjectural derivations having been rejected."
