PREFACE

This little work lias been prepared as a companion not only to Aim's

Grammars, but to all other German Grammars and Readers. It has beenissued in response to the need felt by every student of German, of being

familiar with the peculiar chirography in which nine-tenths of Germanletters and other manuscripts are written—a need almost as great in com-merce and society, as that of being familiar with the sounds of Germanwords.

It has been the Compiler's aim to offer such a selection of pieces as

will interest the student, and increase his acquaintance with Germanidioms, while he is familiarizing himself with the Handwriting. Thepieces offer not only a gradual progression from simple phrases andsentences to the more complicate, but comprise the different styles of

composition and conversation, from child's stories through descriptions

and tales to political essays and letters. The epistolary style being

more nearly related to the conversational than any other, a larger space

has been allowed to letters, ranging in style from Herder's touching

simplicity to Humboldt's loftiness and refined sentiment.

It is believed that the style of script employed will commend itself

to all teachers and students for its simplicity and elegancy, while it is

as near a fac-simile of standard German as can be reduced to type.

As an aid to the pupil, and to lighten the task of the teacher, a

series of notes has been appended, elucidating, where necessary, the

difficulties that occur in words, phraseology or construction.

Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1869, by

BOOKS FOR AMERICANS STUDYING THB

GERMAN LANGUAGE,

Aim F., Rudiments of the German Language. Exercises in Pronouncing,

Spelling and Translating. American Edition, Improved and Enlarged

$0.35

In these 'Rudiments' the Elements of the German Language will be found reduced

to their utmost simplicity. The Lessons have been, as far as possible, brought

down to the capacity of childhood by the simplification of every difficulty, thus

avoiding the obstacles from which the most diligent pupils so frequently shrink.

The book is printed in large type, and exercises in German current handwriting

are copiously introduced.

'This little w-rk presents the elements of the German language in a manner ad-

mirably adapted to the capacity of young learners. One element after another i3

introduced, and each is made familiar by oral and written exercises, which consist

of easy German sentences to be translated into English, and vice vei*sa. These are

accompanied with vocabularies and the grammatical forms of the words used in the

sentences, grammatical principles and technics being very sparingly introduced, or

rather being gradually deduced. In our judgment, t_e work presents the true

method of teaching German to children, and we predict its extensive use.'

(Ohio Educational Mo?it?dy.)

Atn, F., New Practical and Easy Method of learning the German Language.

With Pronunciation, by J. C. Oehlschlager. Revised Edition of 1869.

First Course: The Practical Part $0.60

Second Course: Theoretical Part 0.40

Both Parts bound together 1.00

No attentive observer can have failed to note the vast revolution which has

taken place during the last twenty year3 in the method of teaching modern lan-

guages. The urgent need of a system for the acquisition of foreign tongues offering

greater facilities to learners has created a demand for works of an entirely different

character from those formerly in use. With a view to supplying this want, the at-

tention of Authors has been turned of late to the production of text-books specially

designed for those who are their own Instructors. The result of their labors is a

numerous series of Grammars, some of them of decided merit, and all having moreor less claims to attention.

Among the many works of this kind which have hitherto appeared in this

country, none have met with more marked and more general favor than the various

Grammars .of Ahn. Wherever they are known, they have been sought after with

an avidity which constitutes the strongest evidence of their vast superiority. Theextensive circulation they have attained in nearly every quarter of the world equally

attests their peculiar excellence and furnishes conclusive proof that the purpose of

the Author in their preparation has found full appreciation. In Europe, the Method

of Ahn with the German has enjoyed a greater degree of favor than almost any other

1

system, and in America, also, the republication of his Grammar has been received

with special approbation.

In now presenting to the American Public a new and improved and revised

edition of the New German Grammar of Ahn, a brief reference to its characteristic

features and predominant principles would seem to be appropriate. The work is

divided into two distinct Parts—a Practical and a Theoretical or Grammatical

Course. The First Part consists of two Sections, of which the former contains a

short Treatise on the Pronunciation, the Written Alphabet, Examples for Practice in

German Writing, the Exercises and the Interlinear Pronunciation of the Words, witli

References to the Theoretical Part ; and the latter comprising the Reading Lessons,

in Prose and Poetry, together with a Vocabulary of all the words used in the same.

To this last Division is also added a Collection of Words with which the sentences

contained in the Exercises may be increased to any number. After this come a List

of Additional Adjectives and Regular Verbs and also Short Dialogues on different

subjects, to which is appended lastly a Table of Contents for reference. TheSecond or Theoretical Part comprises a Synopsis of the German Grammar, in which

everything pertaining to the Inflection and Use of the different Parts of Speech is

treated briefly but with sufficient completeness. By means of this Grammatical

Synopsis, containing everything usually found in such an Outline, learners mayquickly gain an insight into the peculiarities of the German and soon become per-

fect masters of it without the aid of an Instructor. Following the Synopsis is a

Table of all the Irregular Forms of Dissonant and Irregular Verbs, of great value to

the student. Immediately after this an Index is appended to the work, by whichthe pupil can instantly refer to any subject in this Part of the Grammar.The distinguishing feature of the work—that which perhaps constitutes its chief

merit—is the System of Interlinear Pronunciation of Professor Oehlschlager. Bythis system, the difficult sounds of the German language are represented by English

combinations of letters in so simple, clear and easy a manner as to render themcomprehensible to the most ordinary capacity. The main object of the Grammaris to come to the aid of persons who wish to acquire a knowledge of the German,but are nevertheless unable to obtain the Pronunciation of the Words from an In-

structor. As employed in this work, the advantages of the above-mentioned systemare obvious. Students who cannot procure the assistance of a Teacher may, for the

want of one, with perfect confidence follow the Interlinear Pronunciation, as well

as the accurate instruction, laid down in the Grammar. They may be assured that

by paying proper attention thereto their German will be understood wherever they

go, and will even be superior to that which many pupils obtain from careless or

incompetent Instructors. To all such this work is especially recommended, with full

confidence that its system of Pronunciation will be found amply sufficient to enable

the learner to acquire a thorough familiarity with the sounds of this most difficult

of modern languages.

For upward of twelve years this System of Pronunciation, adopted by Professor

Oehlschlager and applied by him with great success to his various Dictionaries andto other Elementary Works on Languages, has triumphantly sustained the severe

test to which it has been subjected. During that period nothing has been published

which surpasses in accuracy and in facility of application his peculiar mode of in-

dicating the sounds of one language by the corresponding signs and characters of

another. Of the works to which this System of Pronunciation has been applied,

tens of thousands have been sold in this country and in Europe, and the demandis still unabated.

Another new and important feature of this Grammar which deserves special

2

€. Striker in ttcm i)orh.

mention here, is the introduction of German Writing, both in the Exercises and in

tLe Reader. Of the various Additions made to the book, none is more valuable than

this. Many persons who read the printed works of German authors with ease

are often obliged, nevertheless, to employ some one to decipher letters for them,

owing to their ignorance of the German written characters. This difficulty is

entirely obviated in the present edition. Whole Pieces, printed in the GermanCurrent Hand, have been introduced into the volume, from which the pupil canperceive at a glance how the different letters of the alphabet are made and joined

together to form words. This addition has involved considerable expense, but strong

confidence is felt that the advantages resulting from it will amply repay the outlay.

Although every Teacher who has used this work admits its practical usefulness for

all, but especially for those who pursue the study of the language without the aid of

a Master, not a few have complained of the insufficiency of both the Exercises oncertain subjects and of the Reading Lessons. To remedy this defect the Republica-

tion of this work has been undertaken. Studious attention has been paid in this

Edition to these particulars in order to remove all ground for complaint in this

regard. The length of the Exercises has therefore been increased, whilst new, andit is believed, more appropriate Reading Lessons, in Prose and in Verse, extracted

from the best German Authors, have been selected.

In preparing this Edition of the Grammar of Ahn for publication, no pains havebeen spared that nothing should bf» wanting in the way of completeness or accuracyof expression. The work has been thoroughly revised. Yarious emendations andadditions have Deen made in order to give additional value to the book. The First

or Practical Part has been entirely remodelled with assiduous care and much im-

proved. A number ot References to Paragraphs in the Second or Theoretical Part

have been inserted therein, which will enable the student to obtain a more general

view of any particular subject treated in the former Division. A much larger Vocab-ulary of the Words used in the Reading Lessons, arranged in Sections immediately

after the latter, with Corresponding Numbers, for the convenience of the learner,

has been introduced. Considerable Alterations have also been made in the Secondor Grammatical Part, with a view to render it more perfect. The English in the

Exercises, which was sometime.- found to be either inelegant or incorrect, has, in all

such instances, been scrupulously revised and altered. To attain the greatest pos-

sible perspicuity, the phraseology of the rules in the Grammatical Part has, whennecessary, been carefully amended. The Orthography has been conformed to the

usage of the best German Classic Authors, and follows the most recent authorities

known in Germany, whose Grammars are at present most extensively used there.

In printing the work, exceeding care has been taken with the letter-press, that

the book may be free from typographical errors, which often, in Grammars of this

kind, create needless embarrassment in the mind of the pupil and tend greatly to

his discouragement.

With these improvements, the Grammar is believed to contain everything needful,

to give to any one a good knowledge of the German Language, and by its stock of

words and idioms to open to him the way to a general acquaintance with the rich

mines of its literature. No person of ordinary capacity can go through the workwith proper application without becoming gradually conversant with the colloquial,

the idiomatic and the classical use of the Language.

In conclusion, the Publisher may be pardoned for venturing the opinion, that of

those Works which aim to teach the principles of a language independent of the

guidance of a Master, this Method of Ahn, revised and improved, will take fore-

most rank and occupy a high place among similar publications in this country.

With a sincere hope that the Grammar may prove an efficient auxiliary in assisting

the student to obtain an intimate knowledge of the hidden beauties of the language

of Goethe and Schiller, and also contribute to spread its study, it is submitted to

the candid and impartial consideration of the American Public.

Mr. George Eipley says in the 'N. Y. Tribune' of August 31st, 1867:

Among the elementary books for the study of the German language, which maybe recommended for their practical value to both teacher and pupil are the manuals

v by F. Ahn, comprising the Rudiments of the German Language, and a NewPractical and Easy Method of Learning the German Language, edited byOehlschlager, published in New York by E. Steiger. The first named volume is

adapted to the use of beginners, presenting the simplest grammatical forms, and a

familiar vocabulary of German, without perplexing the learner with the excep-

tional and complicated cases which occur in the course of subsequent study. Thelarger work consists of a complete series of practical exercises, illustrating the

principles of the language, and furnishing a thorough drill for the student in con-

struction, translation, and pronunciation; together with a second part devoted to

theory, and giving a full synthetic exposition of the usages and rules with which

the learner has already become conversant by following the lessons of the previous

portion. An excellent feature of this method is the introduction of numerous exer-

cises in the German hand-writing, with which comparatively few Americans whoread German printed books with ease are familiar, and examples of which are not

usually found in the fashionable grammars. A very short time spent in practicing

on these exercises will enable any one who already understands the language to

enjoy the elaborate and beautiful chirography which to many readers of Germanis a profound mystery. But for business purposes and social intercourse, a knowl-

edge of German writing is no less valuable than that of the printed page. We do

not advise any one who wishes to learn the spoken language of Germany, to dis-

pense with the aid of a competent master, and of assiduous practice in listening to

the sounds as they fall from the lips, as to understand what is said in a foreign

language is generally more difficult than to speak it ; but whoever aims only at asufficient knowledge to read the standard authors with facility and pleasure, will

find the method of Ahn, as presented in the larger of these treatises, an agreeable

and efficient guide.

The excellence of these books, 'Rudiments' and 'Method,' is best shownby the fact, that they have been speedily introduced into the classes of those

teachers under whose notice they have chanced to fall. Thus, 2 specimen-copies

of Ahn' s 'Rudiments' .were sent when just issued to San Francisco, andmore than 2000 copies were ordered within 6 months from that city alone.

So it has been elsewhere—so it will be, whenever a teacher takes the pains

to examine the books ; for with them lie will find it easy to teach German.

Grauerfc, W., Manual of the German Language.

First Part $0.40Second Part 0.40Both Parts bound together 0.70

The author of this Manual of the German Language (and of the Lehrgangder Englischen Sprache) has endeavored to avoid the detects of both the synthetic

and the purely analytic methods by an organic development of the forms of words

and sentences in German, and to offer, within a small compass, ample, carefully

selected void practically available material for study and application.

Each chapter contains three parts : The German exercises offer a progressive

course of the most important forms of words and sentences, both onomatically

and grammatically ; the analysis following them is explanatory of these forms

the English exercises afford material for applying them, i. e. for writing and speak-

ing German.

In thus placing analysis and explanations between the exercises, instead of

before them, the author has simply followed the law of understanding. We must

first look into and familiarize ourselves with the subject matter, before we can

think over it and attempt to imitate or apply it. The study of a living language

becomes, therefore, easier and more satisfactory when the student is allowed to

mew first the living structure entire and then to examine it in the light of sub-

sequent analysis.

The Index will show the course to be strictly progressive from simple to ac-

cessory and finally to compound sentences.

Copious material for conversational purposes is given in Part I.

The grammatical material, necessarily scattered in Part I., is recapitulated in

Part II. ; but the respective portions given in Part I. should be previously reviewed.
