Compare hold and cold.
15^ By analogy with colt and bolt. • 20 Phonetically inferior to mullen.
21 Better as philology but worse as phonetics.
22 The word in both forms is obsolescent.
28 Obsolete ^ except in Saviour, 2* Bad both phonetically and philologically considered. Sithe is the Old English form.
25 See preface, p. vii.
26 The h is bad both as a phonic element and as an etymological element.
27 Phonetically inferior to surprize, 28 One of several spellings : poor, phonetically considered
....
2» Good philology but poor phonics.
80 The e is good etymology but unnecessary as a phonic element.
General Note. — Philology, especially in its branch science, etymology, seems to dictate the reform of spelling according to past history, while phonetic science suggests reform according to the future needs of cosmopolitan civilization. Education should probably encourage only such reform as lightens the labor of the child in learning to read, and of the scholar in acquiring a mastery of languages and of literatures.
