Few men have influenced the development of American English to the extent that Noah
Webster did. Born in West Hartford, Connecticut, in 1758, his name has become
synonymous with American dictionaries. Graduated from Yale in 1778, he was admitted to
the bar in 1781 at}d thereafter began to practice law in Hartford. Later, when he turned to
teaching, he discovered how inadequate the available schoolbooks were for the children of a
new and independent nation.In response to the need for truly American textbooks, Webster
published A Grammatical Institute of the English Language, a three-volume work that
consisted of a speller, a grammar, and a reader. The first volume, which was generally
known as The American Spelling Book, was so popular that eventually it sold more than 80
million copies and provided him with a considerable income for the rest of his life. While
teaching, Webster began work on the Com¬pendious Dictionary of the English Language,
which was published in 1806.In 1807 Noah Webster began his greatest work, An American
Dictionary of the English Language. In preparing the manuscript, he devoted ten years to the
study of English and its relationship to other languages, and seven more years to the writing
itself. Published in two volumes in 1828. An American Dictionary of the English Language
has become the recog¬nized authority for usage in the United States. Webster's purpose in
writing it was as to demonstrate that the American language was developing distinct
meanings , pronunciations, and spellings from those of British English. He is responsible for
advancing simplified spelling forms: develop instead of the British form develop; theater and
center instead of theatre and centre; color and honor instead of colour and honour.In 1840
Webster brought out a second edition of his dictionary, which included 70,000 entries
instead of the original 38.000. This edition has served as the basis for the many revisions
that have been produced under the Webster name.
