IMPERIAL QUARTO NGLISH AND CHINESE
DICTIONARY,
WITH THE PUNTI AND MANDARIN PRONUNCIATION.
For comprehensiveness and practical service this Work stands unrivalled. All the new words which the Chinese have of late years been com- pelled to coin to express the namerous objects it machinery, photography, telegraphy, and in science generally, which the rapid advance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are here given in extenso. Each and every worst is fally ilustrated and explained, forming exercises for students of a most instructive nature, Both the Court and Punti pronunciations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle hitherto attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to malto the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body thereby effecting a vast economy of space, achieving a clearness not provionsly attained, and dispensing with those vast margins and vacant spaces which have heretofore charac terized Chinese publications.
To illustrate the vast scope of the work tho following facts are submittedforconsideration: Chalmers Vocabulary contains about 16,000 Chinese charnoters, sad Medhurst's English and Chinese Dictionary about 100.000 whilst this work contains more than 50,000 English words Chinese character and upwards of 600,009, Again, despite all the grammars and other elementary works as yet published, the student of this difficult language absolutely requires ex- amples to display the various applications and equivalents of different words which have one general meaning. Of these examples this work contains more than five times as many as any other Dictionary hitherto published."
For practical purposes the arrangement of the work is so complete that a reference to its pages enables a person who understands English to communicate effectively with natives who under- stand nothing but Chinose. In this respect the work will be found indispensable to all Europeans residing in China, and to the natives themselves it explains subjects fully with which very few indeed of them are perfectly sequinted. To parties resident in England and interested in China it cannot but be iuraluable occasionally,
It comprises upwards of two thousand large. buarto pages:
