ENGLISDICTION CHINESE

WITH THE PUNTI AND MANDARIN PRONUNCIATION.

For comprehensiveness and practical service. this Work stands unrivalled. All the new words which the Chinese have of lato years been com pelled to coin to express the numerous objects iz. machinery photography, telegraphy, and in. sciencs generally, which the rapid advance of foreign relations has imposed upon them, are here given in extenso. Each and every word is fully illustrated and explains, forming exercises for students of a most instructive naturo. Both the Court and 1 unti pronundations are given, the accents being carefully marked on the best principle kithato attained. The typography displays the success of an attempt to make the Chinese and English type correspond in the size of body, thereby effecting a rast economy of space, achieving a clearness not previously attained, and dispensing with these vast margins and vacant spices which have heretofore char

charas - terized Chinese publications.

To illustrate the vast scope of the work the following facts aremmitfelforconsideration Chalmers Vocalmiary contains obon: 16,020 Chinese characters, and Medhurst's English and Chiness Dictionary about 100,000 whilst this work contains more than 50,000 English words, and upwards of 800,000. Chinese characters" Again, despite all the grammare and other elementary works as yet published, the student of this difficult language absolutely requires e- amples to display the various applications ande equivalents of different words which have one general-meaning Of those examples this work. contains more than five times as my as any other Dictionary latkurta pablishel,

For practical purposes the arrangement of the.. werk is so complete that a reference to its pages. enables a person who understands English to comunicate effectively with natives who under- stand nothing but Chinos. In this zaspect tho 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 nequeiated. To parties resident in England and interested in China it cannot but be invaluable occasionally.

It comprises upwards of two thousand large- quarto pagos. A
