 This handy little volume has been pre- 
 pared, by a University Graduate, for the use 
 of teachers, students and business men in the 
 United States, its new possessions and the 
 Spanish-speaking- countries. In Cuba, Puerto 
 Rico and the Philippines, thousands of sol- 
 diers and sailors, as well as old and new sett- 
 lers, are anxious to increase their knowledge 
 of English and Spauish. In this volume will 
 be found compressed much valuable inform- 
 ation, besides 35,000 words and definitions. 
 The pronunciation of every word is given; 
 the most frequently used idioms are ar- 
 ranged in alphabetical order; maps and 
 statistics of the United States aud of all 
 Spanish-speaking countries are scattered 
 through the book, with a list of important 
 cities in Puerto Rico and the Philippines. 
 These features are not found in any similar 
 English-Spanish Dictionary issued in Ame- 
 rica or abroad. That this work may prove 
 as helpful as it is convenient in size, and 
 a worthy companion to LEE'S PRACTICAL 
 SPANISH INSTRUCTOR, is the wish of

 THE ACCENT. 
 
 The following rules should be always 
 remembered : 
 
 1. In w r ords of two or more syllables end- 
 ing with a vowel the stress is on the syllable 
 before last, viz.: vela (vái-lah), cortina (cor- 
 tée-nah), amasadijo (ah-mah-sah-dee-hoe). 
 
 2. In words ending with a consonant the 
 
 stress Is on the last syllable, viz.: bajel 
 
 (bah-háil), alentar (ah-lain-tár), afabilidad 
 (ah-fah-bee-lee-dád). ' 
 
 Exceptions— W ords ending in n or s take 
 the stress on the syllable before last, viz.: 
 joven (hóe-vain), lunes (lóo-nais). 
 
 In words where a vowel is marked with an 
 accent (') the above rules are set aside and 
 the inflection laid on the vowel so accented, 
 viz. : ágata (áh-gah-tah), cáncer (cán-thair), 
 carácter (ca-rák-tair), fundición (foon-dee- 
 thee-ón). 
 
 Some words change their meaning by as- 
 suming an accent or by shifting the accent, t 
 viz.: si (if), si (yes); mi (my), mt (me); el 
 (the), él (he); público (public), publico (I 
 publish), publicó (he published); hábito 
 (habit), habito (I inhabit), habitó (he in- 
 habited). 
 
 153 
 
General Rule— The vowels a, e, o and 
 u always bear an accent when standing- 
 alone, viz.: á (at, in, on, to), é (and), ó (or, 
 either), u (used instead of ó when the word 
 that follows begins with an o). 
 
 THE PLURAL. 
 
 The following rules should be remembered 
 in forming the plural, viz.: 
 
 1. Words ending with a vowel form their 
 plural by adding an s, viz.: casa (sing.), 
 casas (plur.); candelero (sing.), candeleros 
 (plur.). 
 
 2. Words ending with a consonant form 
 their plural by adding es, viz.: papel (sing.) 
 papeles (plur.); velocidad (sing.), velocidades 
 (plur.). 
 
 Exceptions — Words ending in s where 
 the inflection or accent is not on the last syl- 
 lable, do not change at all in their plural, 
 viz.: East Monday, El Lunes pasado (sing.), 
 Four Mondays, Cuatro Lunes (plur.); The 
 hypothesis, La hipótesis (sing.), The hypo- 
 theses, Las hipótesis (plur.). 
 
 3. Words ending in z change this letter 
 into c and add es for their plural, viz.: capaz 
 (sing.), capaces (plur.); juez (sing.), jueces 
 (plur.). 
 
 THE GENDER. 
 
 The gender of a word is known by its 
 termination, as following: 
 
 1. Nouns ending in o are masculine, with 
 the exception of mano (hand) which is fem- 
 inine. 
 
 2. Nouns ending in a, cion and tion, tad 
 and dad, are feminine. 
 
 Note — A few nouns in a are masculine, 
 viz.: planeta, papá, idioma. 
 
 3. There is a third gender in Spanish 
 called the neuter gender, which has no 
 plural and cannot be applied to persons or 
 things, but to adjectives in an indefinite 
 form onlj^, viz. : lo bueno (the good), lo santo 
 (the holy). 
 
 These three genders are manifested by the 
 articles: 
 
 el (mas. sing.)/ los (mas. plur.) 
 la (fern, sing.) las (fern, plur.) 
 lo (neuter, sing, and plur.) 
 
 These three articles are equivalent tc the 
 English the.

Puerto Rico. —One of the Great Antilles, ceded 
 to the United States by Spain 1898. Situated be- 
 ' tween lat. 17® 54' and 18® 31' North, between 
 long. 9® 44’ and 11® 25' East of Washington. 
 Lengthy 95 miles, width, 35 miles. Area, 3,668 
 sq. miles. Population, in 1887, about 800,000. 
 
 | The island is very mountainous. The principal 
 range of mountains extends from the Capes of San 
 1 Juan, in the N. E., to Cabo Rojo in the S. W., divid- 
 ing the island into North and South. The highest 
 peaks are El Yunque, 5,060 feet, and La Torre- 
 cilla, 3,667 feet. Of the sixty rivers we may 
 enumerate Loiza. La Plata, Añasco and Grande. 
 
 ¡ The soil is very fertile, producing sugar cane, 
 tobacco, corn, cotton, rice in the low lands, coffee 
 i on the mountains, and a great variety -of tropical 
 fruits and vegetables eveiy where, some yielding 
 two and three crops per year. The principal min- 
 ,, erais are gold, carbonates, and sulphidés of copper 
 
and magnetic oxide of iron in large quantities. 
 Lignite is fc and at Utuado and Moca, and also 
 yellow amber. A large variety of marbles, lime- 
 stones and other building stones are deposited on 
 the island, but these resources are very undevel- 
 oped. There are saltworks at Guaniea and Sali- 
 nas on the south coast, and at Cape Rojo on the 
 west. The climate is more wholesome than is usual 
 in the tropical zone, owing to the mountainous 
 character of the land and the continuous breezes 
 from the East. 
 
 San Juan, the capital, is situated on a small 
 island on the north coast. 32.000 inhabitants. 
 Other important cities are Bayampn. 15,300 ; Are, 
 eibo, 29,700; Aguadilla, 13,300; Mayagiiez, 28,- 
 200; Ponce, 42,700; Guayama, 13,000; Huma- 
 cao, 15,000; San German, 20,000; Caguas, 15,000. 
 The principal ports are San Juan, Ponce, Guaniea 
 and Mayagiiez. Exports: coffee, $8,000000; 
 
 sugar, $3,750,000; tobacco, $650.000 a year.

 caña de azúcar, tabaco, maíz, algodón, arroz, en 
 las-tierras bajas, y café en las montañosas, y gran 
 número de frutas y veietales tropicales en todas, 
 dando á veces dos y tres cosechas anuales. El cli- 
 ma es más sano de lo general, en zonas tropi- 
 cales, debido al carácter montañoso de la isla y las 
 frescas y continuas brisas del Este.

 Manila, the capital, is almost 600 miles from 
 Hongkong, China. Area estimated variously from 
 52,000 to 115,000 sq. miles; population, 7 to 10 
 millions. 
 
 Discovered by Magellan, 1521 ; Manila made the 
 capital, 1571; captured by the English, 1762, re- 
 ' stored, 1764. The climate of the Philippines varies 
 little from that of other places in the same lati- 
 tude. The range of the thermometer during the 
 year is from a little over sixty to about ninety. 
 
 [ The year may be divided into three seasons: the 
 first, cold and dry, commences in November; the 
 , second, warm but still dry, begins in March, the 
 greatest heat being experienced from April to Ew 
 end of May; and the third, which is excessively 
 
wet, continues from June to the middle of Novem- ¡ 
 her. Earthquakes are frequent, ».
