Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Words With Native Roots and With Greek, Latin, or Romance Suffixes The following study concerns itself with an interesting by-phase of English linguistic history. My primary aim is to present the material in conveniently classified form. The discussion of the phenomena so presented is not exhaustive. On the contrary, it is merely introductory and suggestive. Practically every writer on the history of the English language has mentioned the fact that English, vastly more than any other tongue, has added foreign suffixes to native words. Even the authors of grammars for secondary schools comment on this. I have not found, however, an adequate collection of the material in respect either to a full word-list or to an approximately complete enumeration of the suffixes involved. The usual procedure is to mention from eight to twenty suffixes with not more than seventy illustrative words. Manifestly the subject is worthy of a fuller treatment than it has received. Hybrid words, objects of puristic scorn, hold an important place in spoken and written language today. Literally hundreds of them which as yet have not been corralled in the lexicons are used constantly in conversation, in the newspapers, and in magazines. I noticed not less than seventy-five during the months I was preparing this dissertation. A bootblack is a "shineologist"; a heavy baseball batter is a "sluggist"; a newspaper column reserved for violent crime is the "murderology" section; the pronunciation of New Yorkers is "New Yorkese"; every man locally important enough to promulgate an individual doctrine or cult has his thoughts described by an -ism attached to his name, while his adherents bear his name plus an -ist or an -ite. Once the attention is called to this matter one is astonished at the absolute freedom with which the man in the street no less than his sophisticated fellow in the newspaper office attaches any suffix whatever to any word, slang or erudite, which he happens to use at the moment. Practically all of this is unconscious. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book American Language

Download or read book American Language written by H.L. Mencken and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Language, first published in 1919, is H. L. Mencken's book about the English language as spoken in the United States. Mencken was inspired by "the argot of the colored waiters" in Washington, as well as one of his favorite authors, Mark Twain, and his experiences on the streets of Baltimore. In 1902, Mencken remarked on the "queer words which go into the making of 'United States.'" The book was preceded by several columns in The Evening Sun. Mencken eventually asked "Why doesn't some painstaking pundit attempt a grammar of the American language... English, that is, as spoken by the great masses of the plain people of this fair land?" It would appear that he answered his own question. In the tradition of Noah Webster, who wrote the first American dictionary, Mencken wanted to defend "Americanisms" against a steady stream of English critics, who usually isolated Americanisms as borderline barbarous perversions of the mother tongue. Mencken assaulted the prescriptive grammar of these critics and American "schoolmarms", arguing, like Samuel Johnson in the preface to his dictionary, that language evolves independently of textbooks. The book discusses the beginnings of "American" variations from "English", the spread of these variations, American names and slang over the course of its 374 pages. According to Mencken, American English was more colorful, vivid, and creative than its British counterpart.
