PREFACE
TO REVISED EDITION.

WHEN I was asked to undertake the preparation of this French Diction-


ary, I had no idea of the formidable nature of the task that lay before ma
It was obvious, of course, that a very great deal would have to be done to

bring up to date a dictionary of a living language that is ever growing, and


m which new words and new meanings of words are being coined almost
daily But I found, in the course of the four and a half years during which
I have been engaged upon the work, that it assumed proportions altogether
undreamt of, and that I was virtually producing a new work.
Perhaps I may be permitted to direct attention to some of the featuies
which distinguish the new edition.
Many thousands of new words and phrases, idioms and idiomatic expres-
sions, proverbs and proverbial expressions, have been included In a great
many instances chapter and verse have been given Two hundred columns
of print have been added to the book.
For the words in the French-English part, I have closely followed the
smaller Littre" as well as Bescherelle, and have taken special care to give, as
far as the compass of the Dictionary would allow, illustrative examples of the
many and various meanings conveyed by the words under review These
various meanings have also been classified, as far as possible, under their
respective heads In the English-French portion I have, as far as the selec-
tion of words is concerned, closely followed the lines of Cassell's English
Dictionary. The latest classical, general, scientific, commercial, naval, and
military terms are incorporated In this part, too, the "notation" of the
words has been carefully marked throughout and the pronunciation revised.
Among other features of the work wljich may justly, I think, be accounted
improvements, I may mention the following, viz : the different preposi-
tions governing verbs have been printed in heavier type thus simplifying
one of the greatest difficulties of the language, the pronunciation of the
words, where necessary, has been carefully indicated ; and the list of geo-
graphical names of countries and places has been largely added to.
The work has occupied me, as I have said, for more than four years ; but
the process of revision has been to me most interesting, and while the labour
expended has been far greater than anything I could have anticipated. I
trust that the result will give satisfaction to an even larger circle of readers
than was obtained by previous editions.

My thanks are due in no small measure to the printers for the care with
which the proofs have been treated, and for the intelligence displayed by
their proof-readers.

I HAVE been very pleased to revise my friend, Mr. Boielle's, work. All I
have done is to would have done himself, had he not died a week
do what lie

before the publication of this work I have read through the work and
corrected evident misprints, taking as my guides the new edition of Webster's
Dictionary, Littrl and Hatzfeld-Dannesteter.

TABLE OF IRBEGULAR AND DEFECTIVE VEEBS.

THE Imperfect of the Indicative, the


Conditional, the Imperative, and the Imperfect
of the Subjunctive, are wanting in this Table These four tenses are formed as
follows
The imperfect of the indicative is regularly formed from the present participle
by changing ant parl~ant, je parl-ais ; fimss-ant, je fimss-ais, &c.
into ais, as
The conditional has always the same root as the future , so that the first person of
the future being known, it is easy to form the conditional, as . je parlerai, je par-
Zjrai-s ; je fimrai, je ftnirai-s
The imperative is always regularly formed from the present of the indicative, by
suppressing the pronouns, as jeparle, imperative, >ar/e ; except in the verbs avoir,
1

&re, and saooir. The third person singular and plural of the imperative are always
the same as in the present of the subjunctive, and belong to that tense.
The imperfect of the subjunctive is always regularly formed from the preterit
indicative by adding se, etc., to the second person singular, as : tuparlas, que jepar-
las-se; tu finis, qwjefim$-se ; tu requs, queje re$us-$e; tu vendis, queje vendis-se.
