Taking the average of a number of sermons his r. Ite may be taken to be nearly 140 words a minute. One of the most rapid speakers that I have ever reported was the late Rov. Capel Molyneux. Whose rate was about 185 or 100 words a minute. His sermons usually lasted an hour, and I have counted the words of several that were preached at the rate 1 have mentioned. - 7 LA Sptaking and Speakers. 99 The number of words uttered per minute is not always an accurate gauge of the rapidity of delivery, as ...one speaker will often indulge in long words while another will speak chiefly in monosyllables. A more accurate test of speed would be the number of syllables uttered. On an average, each word contains about a syllable and a half; but in certain technical lan- guage, embracing a good deal of scientific terminology, the average is of course greater. As a rule a good reporter does not object to a speaker using long words. Unless they happen to be very' difficult or technical, or words of an unusual character, they are generally more quickly written than monosyllables, because they involve fewer liftings of the pen, unless (which is not always the case) the short words can be united phraseogra- phically.
