Excerpt from A New and Complete Grammar, of the French Tongue: In Which the Construction of the Language Is Reduced to Its Simplest Principles, by New and Plainer Rules, to Facilitate the American or English Pupil in Becoming Acquainted With Its Peculiarities They are generally translations Of French grammars into English they do not present any regular system Of comparison between the English and the French languages; they give di rections, either by rules or by signs, to translate the exercises contained in them, but never to translate the language itself; they very seldom, answer one of the thousand difficulties which arise in the mind of the learner; and it seems, indeed, as if they never had been used by their authors themselves.

SECTION III. OF THE DEGREES OF SIGNIFICATION OF THE ADJECTIVE. Grammarians commonly reckon three degrees of signification; the positive, the comparative, and the superlative. OF THE POSITIVE. The positive is the adjective expressing the quality of an object, without any increase or diminution; as, beau, handsome; grand, great. Those adjectives whose signification does not admit of comparison can be used but in the positive signification. They are eternel, eternal; extreme, extreme; mortel, mortal; immortel, immortal; impuni, unpunished; auperbe, beautiful; and supreme, supreme. Others cannot be used in the superlative absolute, as will be mentioned with the superlative. OF THE COMPARATIVE. The comparative is so called because it draws a comparison between two or many objects. When two things are compared, the one is either superior, inferior, or equal to the other; hence, three sorts of comparison, that of superiority, inferiority, and equality. These three kinds of comparison are marked in French with the adverbs plus, more; mains, less 5 aussi, as, and si, ..

Not illustrated. 1832 edition. Excerpt: ...good, handsome, and wise person. It must be observed that the article must be repeated before every adjective, if each adjective qualifies a different substantive, although one only is expressed. Ex.: The first and the second volumes, Le premier et le second volume. But one article is sufficient when the adjectives qualify the same substantive; Ex.: The wise and pious Fenelon, Le sage et pieux Finilon. N. B. The word generally is used in the above remarks as it is impossible to give rules for all the exceptions that euphony occasions, either on account of the length or of the sound of adjectives, or for those which perspicuity of style requires; all of which will be understood after a little familiarity with the language. EXERCISE. The derivatives offaire, page 131. That brave general, great in his victory as in his defeat, was proclaimed the liberator of his country. He sont me a boy wicked as the plague, and extremely lazy. Aristides was an honest man. Socrates, at the last hour of his life, showed that he was a philosopher. How would you say in French, he is a good man? Penelope used to undo, during the night, the work that she had done during the day. They condemned him to the state prison, last year, because he had false keys in his trunk. Did he not also counterfeit bank notes? Pliny, the younger, describes the first eruption of Vesuvius. Do not cry, poor child! I will give you a new book. You will not spoil that book, by touching it with clean hands. Did you read the new novel? That good old hermit lives happy in his cottage.
