Etymology is omitted. The dictionary was begun by Dyche, a schoolmaster, who had two previous non-dictionaries to his credit, A Guide to the English Tongue (1709; 48th ed. by 1774); and, A Dictionary of all the Words Commonly Us'd in the English Tongue (1723), both of which stressed spelling and pronunciation, but gave no definitions.…

Because this dictionary stressed departments not found in Bailey, Dyche & Pardon were able to grab a small, loyal share of the growing dictionary market. Their dictionary, aimed at a less educated class than Bailey's, stressed proper accentuation and pronunciation (it was the first of many dictionaries to stress pronunciation); and, anticipating Webster, suggested several improvements in spelling which were subsequently adopted ("physick" to "physic," for example). Etymology is omitted.

Of William Pardon little is known. The New General English Dictionary is, however, "so different in character from the earlier Dyche works that we are naturally tempted to visit its eccentricities on the unknown Pardon" (see Starnes & Noyes, chapt. XVII). The book incorporates the names and descriptions of hundreds of English and Welsh towns, with their market-days, government, manufactures, distances from London, etc. It was partially due to this gazetteer-like entry that the work remained popular with the public.

[912]pp. 8vo. Some worming to upper fore-edge of final section affecting a few letters on each page of 19 leaves. Contemp. panelled calf, red morocco label; some expert repair to hinges. A nice copy. Alston V 152; ESTC T113317, Birmingham, BL & NLW only in UK; 9 copies in North America. Thomas Dyche was an English schoolmaster from Derbyshire. First published in 1735 (his dates are unknown but it is thought he died between 1733 and 1735) his New General English Dictionary was in print until the end of the eighteenth century. O'Neil notes that although their dictionary 'offered little new', Dyche and Pardon were 'successful largely because they addressed themselves to the neglected audience of the less educated'. Priced at six shillings, it certainly was not cheap. From the third edition onwards, it incorporated the names and descriptions of hundreds of English and Welsh towns, with their market-days, government, manufactures, and distances from London.…
