Sectio Decima quinta. Grammatica.

GRammatica est Ars recte loquen∣di, scribendique; agit de voci∣bus, vocumque constructione.

Duo contemplatur in vocibus lite∣ras & syllabas, ut pariter duo gene∣ra literarum quaedam enim solitarie sonant, & vocales dicuntur, ut a e, i, o, u,; quaedam solitarie non sonant, sed simul cum alia quapiam litera, & propterea consonantes dicuntur, cu∣jusmodi sunt hae literae oppositae b, c, d, g, p, q, t, quae literae dicuntur mu∣tae, ut f, l, m, n, r, s, x, z dicuntur se∣mivocales.

Syllaba quae integrum habet sonum, constat vel unica vocali, vel vocali addita consonante, vel vocalibus si∣mul & consonantibus.

In vocibus Grammatica considerat accentum, seu tonum, sive acutum,

sive gravem, sive medium, earum derivationem, originem, atque ety∣mologiam, compositionem, simplici∣tatem, Numeros, si quaestio de No∣mine sit, Singularem, Pluralem; Casus, Nominativum, Genitivum, Da∣tivum, Accusativum, Vocativum, Ab∣lativum; si quaestio de Verbo sit, con∣siderat Tempora, ut Praesens, Imper∣ectum, Praeteritum, Futurum.

Docet qui voces simul construere debeamus, ut Adjectivum cum Sub∣stantivo, ut fiat oratio congrua, con∣tinua, aut interrupta; distinguit sen∣tentias tribus hisce notis, quas designa∣mus appellationibus hisce Comma, Se∣micolon, Colon, aut ut Latini loquun∣tur, punctum.

Prima nota indicat brevem a respi∣rando cessationem, quam exprimimus hunc in modum (,) secunda est diu∣turnior cessatio quam exprimimus hunc in modum (;) postrema est ple∣na cessatio, sensumque absolvit, quam ita notamus (.)
