PREFACE. 
 
 When I first began my career as professor of French at Addiseombe College, I 
 was struck with the great number of ridiculous mistakes made by the students 
 in translating English into Erench. My first impression was that perhaps 
 they did not take the trouble to consult their dictionary ; but I soon found out 
 that the fault was not altogether theirs, but that of the various dictionaries 
 placed in their hands. By running over some of these books, I found that 
 none of them gave all the different acceptations of words, and that the 
 acceptations given were jumbled together indiscriminately, without offering- 
 assistance of any kind to the pupil, who was obliged to take his chance, and 
 make his choice at random. 
 
 Another thing which struck me in these books was the absence of new words 
 that had come into use within the last half-century ; in consequence of which 
 the learner was at a loss whenever he had to translate any of the more modern 
 Erench authors, or anything relating to steam, railways, electricity, and many 
 other branches of the arts and sciences. 
 
 Since that period, something has been done towards remedying this defect ; 
 still the want of a good school Erench and English Dictionary is a fact acknow- 
 ledged by both teachers and pupils ; and, notwithstanding all the difficulties and 
 obstacles which I anticipated from such a laborious task, I set to work with 
 the firm determination to supply it if I could. At a time when the two greatest 
 European nations are so intimately united, not only by bonds of friendship, but 
 still more so by their extensive commerce, their transactions of all kinds, and 
 their constant intercourse, a dictionaiy made for our own days will, I trust, be 
 acceptable to both English and Erench. 
 
 The dictionary I have now the pleasure to offer to the Public is not a mere 
 copy of its predecessors, but an entirely new work, the fruit of seven years ot 
 laborious application and research ; a dictionary based on the best authorities 
 of the present day, viz. : in Erench, on the Dictionnaires de l'Académie, Boiste, 
 Bescherelle, etc. ; in English, on the Dictionaries of Johnson, Webster, Richardson, 
 etc. ; and on the most approved technical and scientific dictionaries of both 
 
 I will explain, as briefly as possible, the plan of this dictionary, and point out 
 its leading characteristics. 
 
 1. Insertion of new words in general use in each language. 
 
 Here special care has been taken to insert all the new words that have 
 come into use in each language within the last half-century, eve?! the most 
 
iv PREFACE, 
 
 recent ones, such as revolver ; photograph ; screw-ship ; stereoscope ; gasometer ; 
 teetotaller, potichomanie, etc. It has been a sufficient reason for me that a word 
 should be generally used, though not found in any dictionary, to give it a 
 place in this book. For what is the use of a dictionary if it is not to give the 
 learner the means of translating any word that he may meet with in reading 
 or in familiar conversation ? . 
 
 2. Insertion of compound words not translated literally. 
 
 I have taken great care to insert in this dictionary the greatest part of com- 
 pound words not translated literally. The omission of such words in school 
 dictionaries is a great mistake; for how can a learner translate hundreds of 
 words like the following : engine-man, mécanicien, machiniste ; air-stove, calori- 
 fère ; gas-meter, gazomètre ; stock-broker, agent de change ; stock-book, maga- 
 sinier ; stock-exchange, bourse, etc., if not given in his dictionary ? None can 
 be translated literally, and many which are compound in one language are 
 simple in another, as may be seen in the above-mentioned examples. In 
 further illustration of this point, the reader is requested to refer to such words 
 as fire, foot, bed, gun, horse, book, sea, etc. 
 
 3. Acceptations of the words separated by figures, with directions as to the choice 
 to be made of the proper word in translating from English into French. 
 
 This I consider the most important feature of this dictionary, as it must 
 materially assist the English pupil by giving him a sure means of selecting the 
 French word best adapted to express his meaning. The different senses of 
 each word are separated from each other by figures, to prevent their being taken 
 for synonymes of the same acceptations. When two or more words come 
 under the same number they are synonymous, or nearly so. After each figure 
 in the English-French part, I have inserted in parentheses words or abbrevia- 
 tions, called here directions, which mark distinctly the various meanings of the 
 English word required for translation into French. This I hold to be of the 
 last importance in translation, as will be seen from the subjoined specimen 
 of a word as found in other dictionaries and in this. 
 
 OTHEE DICTIONARIES. THIS DICTIONARY. 
 
 Match, s. mèche, allumette, partie, t., jeu, Match, s. 1. (lucifer) allumette, f.; 2. 
 m., joute, f., mariage, parti, pareil, sem- (artil.) mèche, f. ; 3. (marriage) mariage, 
 blable, égal, assortiment, m. m., alliance, f . ; 4. (person to be married) 
 
 parti, m. ; 5. (equal) égal, pareil, m. ; 
 partie égale, f. ; 6. (suit) assortiment, -m. ; 
 7. (contest) lutte, f., concours, m.; 8. (at 
 play) partie, f. ; 9. (in fighting) combat, 
 m. ; 10. (in sailing) course, f., joute, f. ; 11. 
 (with swords) assaut, m. ; 12. (in wrest- 
 ling) lutte, joute, f. 
 
 Now, in a case like this (and half the words are so), when the English word 
 has so many meanings entirely different, and separated only by a comma, it is 
 next to impossible for a learner to pick out the proper word. In nine cases out 
 of ten ïie will choose the wrong one. As for instance, " That young lady is the 
 
PBEFACE. > 
 
 richest match in the town" was, not long ago, brought to me thus translated : 
 " Cette jeune demoiselle est la plus riche allumette de la ville." — " The army took 
 flight" " V armée prit le vol." — "In a desperate case" " dans un étui désespéré.'' 
 Such absurd mistakes could not have been made, had this dictionary been 
 placed in the pupil's hands. I might call the reader's attention to hundreds 
 of other similar words, but I refrain from doing so, as the difference may be 
 seen at every page of this dictionary. I would suggest, however, a few words 
 for comparison, such as discharge (verb and noun) ; close (adj.) ; draw ; flight ; 
 head; leg; mouth; stock; train, etc. 
 
 In the French-English part the directions have been inserted only when 
 thought necessary; as the context, the pupil's own good sense, and the know- 
 ledge he possesses of his own language will be sufficient to enable him to 
 choose the proper word in English without much difficulty. 
 
 
 4. Prepositions annexed to the French verbs and adjectives. 
 
 One of the greatest difficulties for the English learner in translating English 
 into French, is to know which prepositions the French infinitives and adjectives 
 require after them. Hence, the constant mistake of using à for de, or vice 
 versa, or using à and de for pour, etc., as, I like to read, j'aime de lire, for a lire. 
 I trust I have removed this obstacle by annexing to the verbs and adjectives 
 the prepositions which they require, as may be seen in every page of the book, 
 viz.: Attend, v. n. s'appliquer (à), s'occuper (de); Fit, adj. propre (à), bon 
 (à); convenable (de), apropos (de), etc. 
 
 5. Examples of the most familiar 
 
 and phrases. 
 
 Idioms and phrases in a dictionary are, beyond all doubt, a very great assist- 
 ance to the learner in composition and translation; and under this impression 
 I have introduced into this dictionary as many idioms and illustrative phrases 
 as space would allow me. But it cannot be expected, that in a work of this size 
 every idiom and phrase in use in both languages should be given. Hence, 
 I have been careful to make a selection of those which are of the most familiar 
 and daily use. 
 
 6. Principal tenses of all irregular verbs. 
 
 In both parts of this dictionary, the principal tenses of all the irregular verbs 
 have been given, for the purpose of assisting the learner in the conjugation of a 
 verb without having recourse to the grammar, as may be seen at — Faike, v. a. 
 [Faisant, fait; je fais, je fis, je ferai] — Go, v. n. [Went ; Gone]. 
 
 7. Typographical arrangement. 
 
 I would beg to call the attention of the Public to the typographical arrange- 
 ment of this dictionary. It will be easily perceived that this is not a confused 
 
vi PREFACE. 
 
 assemblage of words and phrases jumbled together, as inmost of the dictionaries 
 of the two languages, so as to oblige the learner to read through a whole column 
 of the book to find the word or phrase which he wants. The order of this 
 dictionary is as follows: — 1. The acceptations of the word with the figures 
 and directions. 2. The idioms and phrases quite separated from the meanings 
 by forming a new paragraph, and likewise arranged in alphabetical order, each 
 of the leading words beginning with a capital letter, so as to be more conspi- 
 2uous, as may be seen at the words affaire, coup, feu, pied, train, vapeur, etc. ; 
 paper, room, etc. 3. The compound words, when there are any, also in alpha- 
 betical order, and printed in a different type, as may be seen at the words bed, 
 sea, gun, etc. 4. All the English prepositions or adverbs annexed to a verb 
 the meaning of which they frequently alter essentially, have been carefully 
 arranged in alphabetical order, and printed in black letters, viz : to run away ; 
 to — back ; to — down ; so as to strike the learner's eye, and save him the 
 trouble of perusing sometimes a whole page to find the word he is looking for. 
 See the verbs to set, to run, to put, etc. 
 
 To render this work worthy of the attention of the Public, I can honestly say 
 that I have spared neither time nor labour. Never relying on my own know- 
 ledge, I have carefully consulted, not only every work possessed of any merit, 
 but also every competent person, whether in Paris or in England, who could 
 give me any useful information. To Dr. Cauvin, one of the editors of Brande's 
 " Dictionary of Science, Literature, and Art," I am more especially indebted 
 for his valuable aid and advice throughout. I am not presumptuous enough 
 to think that I have fallen into no mistakes, but I confidently trust that this 
 dictionary will be found a great improvement on all the works of this kind 
 published before. How far I have succeeded the Public must determine.

 T7SED IN TH33 DICTIONARY. 
 
 f Signifies that the gn, I, or 11, is liquid. 
 
 Signifies that the h is aspirated. 
 
 — Indicates the repetition of the leading 
 ' word.

 f. ; Ceéat-ettb, eice, créateur, m., 
 créatrice, f. 
 
 The figures in both parts indicate the 
 different senses of the word. 
 
 Words or abbreviations in parentheses, 
 printed in Roman character, serve to 
 complete the sense of those words 
 which precede or follow them, or indi- 
 
 cate the art, trade, profession, science, etc. 
 to which they relate. 
 
 French prepositions. — In the English- 
 French part, all the prepositions annexed 
 to the French verbs and adjectives, in 
 parentheses, are to show what case they 
 govern: as, propre (à), fit for; comblé 
 {de), loaded with; aimer {a), to like to
