The Gutenberg Webster's Unabridged Dictionary: Section P and Q

by Project Gutenberg, Noah Webster

"The Gutenberg Webster's Unabridged Dictionary: Section P and Q" by Project Gutenberg et al. is a reference work that consists of a comprehensive dictionary section likely compiled in the early 20th century. The focus of this section, as suggested by the title, is on the letters P and Q, covering the definitions, etymologies, and usages of various words starting with these letters. The opening of this dictionary provides an overview of its compilation and structure, detailing various entries that feature words starting with "P." This includes definitions that exemplify both common and more obscure words, such as "pabulum," "pachyderm," and "palatable." The dictionary serves as an electronic resource aimed at preserving and making accessible a wealth of vocabulary and information that reflects early 20th-century language use, which can be beneficial to scholars, writers, and anyone interested in the evolution of language.
