Excerpt from Child's First Reader
To help the child, or the foreign-born student, to master this confu sion, lexicographers considerately offer their help. Note how Finding that the letters, especially the vowels, have varied powers, they attempt to give reliability to the letters of the alphabet by the use of diacritic marks, so that a letter marked in a given way stands for a definite sound just as a figure represents one and always the same power.
