Unless in a few instances, these powers of the vowels are used throughout the Vocabulary; but, to make the pronunciation still less liable to change, or variation, a few marks are added to the words, as follows:—­

This mark " as oea, means that these letters are to be expressed singly.

The letters in Italic, as ee, or oo, make but one simple sound.

When a particular stress is laid on any part of a word in the pronunciation, an accent is placed over that letter where it begins, or rather between that and the preceding one.

It often happens that a word is compounded as it were of two, or in some cases the same word, or syllable, is repeated.  In these circumstances, a comma is placed under them at this division, where a rest, or small space, of time is left before you proceed to pronounce the other part, but it must not be imagined that this is a full stop.

     Examples in all these Cases.

     Roea, Great, long, distant.  E’r_ee_ma, Five.  Ry’po_ee_a, Fog, or
     mist.  E’h_oo_ra, To invert, or turn upside down.  Par_oo_, r_oo_,
     A partition, division, or screen.
