ETYMA cover

Intended as an aid to students who have not studied Latin and Greek to organize the base word stock of English, eighty percent of which is derived from these classical tongues.

In sum, this book, while not for the faint-hearted or unmotivated student, has several great merits: it never patronizes the reader; it tries to interest him in the structure of language, it offers a wealth of different exercises, and most of all, it conveys the authors' evident joy in the study of language. * New England Classical Newsletter *
