Riassunto

Excerpt from A Course of Lessons in the French Language on the Robertsonian Method: Intended for the Use of Persons Studying the Language

The prevalent notion that it is impossible to acquire French without a teacher appears to have arisen from the lugubrious attempts of grammarians who have undertaken to explain the pronunciation of the language. No human intellect could possibly digest, and bring to bear on the words of the language, the pages of unintelligible rules and ill-organised observations they have amassed with this View. In the present course of lessons this'prolixity has been carefully avoided, and whilst no useless detail has been introduced, every essential point is fully explained and brought prominently before the observation of the learner. French words being written in most cases exactly as they should be pronounced, there is nothing to prevent the acquisition of their pronunciation by theory; and the generality of persons who study the language, by relying upon the ear that deceives them at every step, and by loosing sight of' the theory, neglect the only certain means whereby they can acquire a really good pronunciation.
