PREFACE. 

In order to render the Dictionary more portable and convenient 
in size, the Author has thought it best to abridge the larger work 
and bring it out in its present form. In so doing, he has omitted 
the Chinese and Japanese characters, the synonyms, and the ex- 
amples showing the use of the words, excepting such as contained 
a peculiar idiom, and which could not be included in a definition. 

All the native Japanese words, with the exception of those which 
were rarely used or obsolete, have been retained ; as, also, all the 
words derived from the Chinese which are in current use. 

In most cases, the arrangement of the compound words, espe- 
cially of the verbs and Chinese words, has been altered ; and, 
instead of making each an independent word, they have been 
arranged under the first member of the compound, as may be seen 
in the case of Abura, Fumi, or Rai. 

The Second, or English and Japanese, Part, has not been 
abridged or altered from the original, except in the correction 
of such typographical errors as were met with. 

In order that the Dictionary may be more easily understood, it 
may be well to explain that, in the Japanese and English Part, the 
root of the verb only is printed in small capitals, that which follows 

(iii) 



in italics, separated by a dash, are the adjective form, and the preter- 
ite tense, as, Abaki,-/^?^,-//^, should be read Abaki, abakii, abaita ; 
KQY.,-ru,-ta^ should be read. Age, ageru, ageta, and M.\,-ru,-ta, 
should be read, Mi, iniru, mita. Also, in the case of the adjec- 
tives, when printed OMOi,-ki,-ku,-shz, it should be read, 0}not\ 
omoki, omoku, omoshi, the first and second being the attributive, 
the third the adverbial, and the fourth the predicative forms of the 
adjective. 

The hyphen is used alvi^ays to connect the different members of 
a compound word.

ORTHOGRAPHY. 

a has the sound of a in father, arm. 

e has the sound of ey in they, prey. 

i has the sound of / in 7nachme, pique, or hke the sound of e in 

viete. 
has the sound of o in no, so. The horizontal mark over b and 

u, indicates merely that the sound of o and u is prolonged. 
u has the long sound of u in rule, tune, or oo in 7noon, excepting 

in the syllables tsu, dzu, and su, when it has a close sound, 

resembling, as near as possible, the sound of u pronounced 

with the vocal organs fixed in the position they are in just 

after pronouncing the letter s. 
at has the sound of ai in aisle, or like eye. 
an has the sound of ow in cow, how. * 
ch is pronounced like ch in cheek, cheap, 
sh is pronounced like sh in shall, ship, shop. 
f has a close resemblance to the sound of the English/, but differs 

from it, in that the lower Hp does not touch the upper teeth ; 

the sound is made by blowing fu softly through the lips 

nearly closed, resembling the sound of wh in who : fu is an 

aspirate, and might, for the sake of uniformity, be written hu. 
g in the Yedo dialect, has the soft sound of 7ig ; but in Kiyoto, 

Nagasaki, and the Southern provinces it has the hard sound 

of g in go, gaifi. 
r in ra, re, ro, ru, has the sound of the English r ; but in ri it is 

pronounced more like d ; but this is not invariable, as many 

natives give it the common r sound. 
se in Kiyoto, Nagasaki, and the Southern Provinces, is pronounced 

she, and ze like Je. 

The final n, when at the end of a word, has always the sound 

of ng ; as, nio)i = inong, san = sang, nin = ni7ig ; but in the 

body of a word, when followed by a syllable beginning with b, 771 

or p, it is pronounced like 7n, as, ba7i-7ni7i = ba7)i77iin^ ; 7/i07i-ba?i, 

(v)
