The First Book of Etymology by Joseph Thomas, published in 1857, is a comprehensive guide to the study of the English language. The book is designed to promote precision in the use of language and to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge of the English language. The author provides a detailed explanation of the origins and meanings of words, with a focus on the etymology of English words. The book is divided into several sections, covering topics such as the history of the English language, the structure of words, the classification of words, and the rules of pronunciation. The author also includes a glossary of common English words, along with their etymologies and definitions. The First Book of Etymology is an essential resource for anyone interested in the study of language, and is particularly useful for students of English literature, linguistics, and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
