8. OV FALSE ASPIRACION.

But no exampel can warrant dhe aspiring ideller, dhat pretends to' lead heir, heritage, heritable, heritor; herb, herbage, herbalist; honour, honorary, honourable; and even dhe humble humour ov dhe passing hour; insted ov eir, erritage, erritabel, erritor; erb, erbage, erbalist; onnor, onnorary, onnorabel; widh dhe umbel umor ov dhe prezzent our; hwich doutles can alone be called our our. Yet aspiracion cannot be denied to' inherrit, inherritance, inherritor, heredditary.


9. DHE GUTTURAL ASPIRATE LOST, OR TRANSMUTED BY MODDERN ORGANS.

Dhe consonants dhat subjoin aspiracion (h), ar dhe labial, dental, lingual, and guttural; or dhe articculants from dhe lips, teeth, tung, and throat: p, t, s, and k; by dhe Lattins turned into c: az in Philadelphus and Philadelphia, Thales and Thalia, Sharon and Sheba, Charon and Chilo, hoom dhe Inglish, havving smoodhed away dhe aspiracion, ar fain to' call Caron and Kilo.

Aincient organs, howevver, dubbelled occazionally dhe guttural, az wel az dhe labial aspirate; dooing equal justice to' Bacchus and to' Sappho: moddern also, (peculiarly the Inglish,) dhe oddher two'; dhe simpel always sufficing to' dubbel dhe aspirate. New dialects softening, lost dhe guttural aspirate; til dhe Spannish probbably recovvered it from dhe Morish. The Itallian and Spannish, and from dhem dhe Inglish, endevvored to' make up dhe los, by prefixing dhe simpel dental to' dhe lingual or sibbilant aspirate, hwich dhe Gallic ear preferred widhout dhe dental; preferring dherfor dhe vertual sh and zh to' tsh and dzh. Inglish organs loozing, like French, dhe guttural aspirate, edher dropt dhe aspiracion, az in carracter and kemmist or kymmist; from character and chemist or chymist; or turned dhe hoal ruf guttural into' dhe smoodh labial aspirate. So softening cough, hough, trough, through, though; rough, tough, slough, chough, widh dhe proppers Hough, Brough, and Loughborough; into' cof, hof, trof; throo or thro', and dho: ruf, tuf, sluf, chuf; Huf, Bruf, and Lufburrough or Lufburrow. But Gough perhaps Orrigin recalled into' Goffe or Gof; hwile Lough became Inglishly Luf, and dhe guttural graddually melted in burrow, ov hwatevver kind.

Aincient ellocucion depressed no aspirate; sattisfied widh ph or f, th, sh, and kh or ch; widhout bh or v, dh, zh or gh. Dhe labial aspirate gennerated dhe Eollic digamma F (howevver turned), hwich by and by gave birth to' dhe Lattin V. If primmitive tungs gain dhus at length won depressive aspirate; succeding expression, particcularly dhe Inglish, came to' dubbel dhe depressive v az wel az dhe direct ph or f. French articculacion havving no more occazion for such dubbling dhan her parent Lattin, dhe Inglish acute or sharp accent askt it evvery moment; but seing no prescedent in oddher picturage, forbore to' exhibbit it, even until dhe prezzent our, dhat Inglish anallogy, matured at last, rezolved to' be seen, az wel az herd; to' reggulate practice by theory, and realize theory in practice.
