Excerpt from A Practical Grammar of the German Language Of all German Grammars hitherto published in England, Dr. Becker's is unquestionably the best, and may be confidently recommended to those who have made themselves masters of the general rules of gram mar, and are desirous of studying the philosophy of the language. Admirably adapted, however, as Becker's Grammar undoubtedly is, to the philosophical student who does not shrink from the task of encountering a grammatical terminology altogether novel, it is in no respect calculated to lead the learner, by an explicit and easy method, to a ready understanding of the elements of the language.
