In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

1828 Definition
X, the twenty fourth letter of the English Alphabet, is borrowed from the Greek. In the middle and at the end of words, it has the sound of ks, as in wax, lax, luxury. At the beginning of a word, it has precisely the sound of z. It is used as an initial, in a few words borrowed from the Greek.
1913 Definition
X, the twenty-fourth letter of the
English alphabet, has three sounds; a compound nonvocal sound (that of
ks), as in wax; a compound vocal sound (that of
gz), as in example; and, at the beginning of a word, a
simple vocal sound (that of z), as in xanthic. See
Guide to Pronunciation, §§ 217, 270, 271.
The form and value of X are from the Latin X, which is from the Greek ***CHI], which in some Greek alphabets had the value of ks, though in the one now in common use it represents an aspirated sound of k. | ||||||||
