Thus it is perceived from the letter, which is printed verbatim--
1. That the letter t is not uttered when standing between a consonant and vowel, as in "understand."
2. The want and misuse of the prepositions of, from, and to.
3. The use of the participial form of the verb for the indicative.
4. The use of pronouns immediately after nouns to which they refer.
5. The interchange of d for t, and g for k, as in do for to, and "thing" for think.
6. The suppression of the sound of r altogether, as heard in re, and religion, &c.
7. Confounding the perfect past with the present tense.
8. The misuse of the indefinite article, which is wanting, in the Indian.
9. The habitual non-use of the imperative mood.
