Stranger. .
There having been ia out court,
during the present week, some discus
sion as to this word, we give the follow
ing from Worcester's Folio Dictionary,
page 1424: . : v., ;
"The most singular formation in our
language is, undoubtedly, that the
word stranger should come from the
Latin preposition e, out of. from. E,
for the sake of euphony, often changes
into ear. It is further prolonged into
extra, familiar to every ear. Our Eng
lish adjective now arises, extraneous.
It passes into French, estrrmger, chang
ing the x into 8; and returns to us as
stranger one who comes from with
out. R. W, Hamilton." . , ', ;
