For an exercise on the Adverbs, the scholar may be referred back to the Adjectives, which he may turn into Adverbs, either under the master's eye, or he may have a portion given him to practise for the next lesson. 2. I have always found it saves a great deal of time, to teach the Indeterminate Pronouns, by constantly introducing them when the phrases are turned. This method I strongly recommend; as I have found that a pupil, with as much knowledge of the language as he ought to have attained on arriving at this last exercise, will understand perfectly the application of all those words commonly called Indeterminate Pronouns. This has been my reason for not giving an exercise on them. MANNER OF PRACTISING A SCHOLAR IN THE Some one Supposing the sentence were; If he had spoken to you. TURN, It has been spoken of-ON en a parlé. speaks, quelqu'un parle. Nobody spoke, personne ne parla. He who speaks of himself, celui qui parle de soi.

Whoever speaks the first shall be fined, quiconque parlera le premier sera mis à l'amende, &c. &c. |
