New general English dictionary; Peculiarly calculated for the use and improvement of such as are unacquainted with the learned languages. Wherein the difficult words, and technical terms made use of in anatomy, architecture, ... sculpture, sur..., &c. not only fully explain'd, but accented on their proper syllables, to prevent a vicious pronunciation; and mark'd with initial letters, to denote the part of speech to which each word peculiarly belongs.

Together with a supplement, of the proper names of the most noted [kin]gdoms, provinces, ... throughout the known world.
