Excerpt from An Etymological Dictionary of Modern English The vocabulary dealt with is, roughly speaking, that Of the Concise Oxford Dictionary collated, during the printing Of the book, with that of Cassell's New English Dictionary These two marvels Of completeness and compression include, however, a great number Of scientific and technical words which can hardly be regarded as forming part Of the English language, while omitting, either by accident or.
