PREFACE. 



The public being ever the acknowledged judge of 'iterary productions, it is but jusl tlia! 
it should be furnished with the requisite information concerning the special utility claimed 
for a work in a department of letters already occupied ; but this obligation brings with it 
the disagreeable task of detailing the improvements claimed to have been made, and of 
exposing to view the deficiencies and errors that have been supplied or corrected, — a task 
rendered still more painful to a sensitive mind, inasmuch as it involves the necessity of 
seeming to exalt one's self at the expense of one's predecessors in the same career, and of 
endeavoring at the same time to diminish their meiits and expose their faults. 

The Editor is anxious to disavow motives so mean and dishonorable, especially vvneii 
convinced, as he is by experience, of the difficulties attending every step in the labors of 
a lexicographer — labors in which the highest excellence can be considei-ed only as an approxi- 
mation to that standard of perfection which dwells in the mind of an author. So far from 
wishing to detract in the least from the works of his pi-edecessors, the Editor is willing 
frankly to confess, that without their labors he should never, perhaps, have undertaken the 
task of the present publication ; and he considers it but just to say to them, in the words of 
the Spanish fabulist Iriarte — 

" Gracias al que nos trajo las gallinas." — Fab. xii. 

There are undoubtedly faults in the Spanish and English Dictionaries that have preceded 
the present work, but it is also true that they embody many excellencies : theEditor has 
endeavored to avail himself of the latter, while at the same time he has carefully corrected 
the former. 

A Bilingual Dictionary is undoubtedly the surest means of obtaining a knowledge of a 
foreign tongue; but, to secure this end, it should contain a copious vocabulary, not only of 
words generally admitted, but also of those not found in common dictionaries which are in 
use among the polite and well educated. Language, like dress, is subject to continual 
change ; and many phrases which were deemed elegant two centuries ago are almost unin- 
telligible at the present day, in consequence of being displaced by others which were then 
unknown. In speaking we naturally desire to be understood ; we ought therefore to leara 
and make use of those signs which put us in possession of one of the greatest gifts of our 
beneficent Creator, namely, the ability of communicating our ideas for our nmtuu! bouefit 
and improvement. Without this requisite all our labor is vain. 

A Dictionary of two languages cannot be perfect unless it contain an exact and rigoi-oa^ 
tjanslation of the words, unencumbered by useless definitions. The most common idioms and 



IV PREFACE. 



phrases that are cui-reut in good society should also be incorpoi-ated, and even some of thos« 
which may be pi-operly classed as vulgar, when they serve to elucidate the peculiar custom: 
and usages of a country. To these should be added the corresponding signification of wordi 
in the mercantile vocabulary, as well as of the terms in most frequent use in the arts anc 
sciences. 

Tliese latter classes of woi'ds are extremely various, particularly in those new republics ol 
America which were formerly Spanish possessions. ISIany words are there in use which ari 
not kno\^^ in the Peninsula. For example : the Turkey, which in Spain is known a 
el pavo or pavito, in Mexico is called el guajolote, in Cuba el guanajo — a word which is als( 
there used figui-atively, in allusion to the qualities of this fowl, to denote a stupid or half-wittet 
person — and in some paits of South America it is termed el chumpipe or chinquique. Thi 
Sweet Potato is called in Spain la jmtata dulce ; in Mexico, el camote ; in Cuba, el boniatc 
buniato, or moniato. A Twin, in Europe, ispcmelo or mcllizo ; but in Cuba it is jimaQua 
in some parts of South America, morrocho ; and in Mexico, familiarly, cuate. In allusion ti 
this lattei- term it is often said, Eso no tiene cuate^ instead of Eso no iiene igual. 

In this manner we might arrange alphabetically a large catalogue of words and idiom 
which ought to be known to the ti'aveller, or to any one in communication with the coun 
tries we hav.e named : since, for ordinary intercourse, familiar words and phi-ases are o 
greater utility than more classical expressions. 

The Castilian language in America has undergone various alterations in the acceptation 
of words, as well as by the addition of many terms which the Academicians have nc 
thought proper to insert, but which were well worthy of a place in their Dictionary. Thi 
deficiency has been in some measure supplied by the indefatigable Salva. It is to b 
regretted, however, that the patriotic literary designs of this erudite Spaniard had not bee; 
sometimes seconded by persons of greater intelligence, since they have often given hir 
erroneous definitions and descriptions. 

In preparing the present work,' besides the Dictionaries of Baretti, Xeuman, Cok 
NELLY, and particularly that of Dr. Don Mateo Seoane, the Editor has consulted the las 
edition of the Diccionario de la Academia Es2Mnola, as well as the Dictionaries of Salv 
and Terreros ; the treatise on Etimologioft CasteUanas by Cabrera, and on las Voce 
Cuhanas by Pichardo. In the English part he has taken for his guides the well-know 
Dictionaries of Webster and Worcester, and in some cases the treatise on Americanism 
by Bartlett. '■'■La Guia Mercantil de Madrid'''' has supplied him with the names o 
many articles of commerce, to which he has added a long catalogue, obtained by careft 
examination of the "Price-currents" of Cadiz, Vera Cruz, Havana, and New Orleani 
besides an excellent collection generously furnished him by his esteemed friend, Alexande 
I. Cotheal, Esq., a merchant of this city well known for his extensive erudition, particularl 
in lancuatres. He ou^ht also to make mention of Mr. John L. Jewett, who, beside 

COO ' ' 

correcting many of the articles, and furnishing various additions, has carefully revised th 
whole work. 

The last revised and enlarged edition of the 1 >ictionary of Don Mateo Seoane has bee 
made the basis of the present work. For the orthography and prosody of Seoane, ho\\ 
ever, which are now almost entirely disused, the Editor lias substituted the new and in 
proved orthography and prosody of the last edition of the Dictionary of the Academy. H 
has also added to Seoane's work more than kioiit tiioisand articles, including words 
idioms, and prov(?rbs. Many of the definitions cf Seoane he could not do less tha 
retrench, especially in cx^ics like the following: Beber. To drink, to swallow any liguic 



PREFACE. 



He certainly could not imagine that any person speaking the English language, and wish- 
ing to consult a Spanish and English Dictionary, could need a definition in his own lan- 
guage of the simple verb to drink. He has also corrected many of Seoane's definitions, as 
in the following examples : Frock-coat, Especie de casaca muy ajustada al cuerpo^ instead 
oi Levita. Cross-legged, El que tiene las piemas cruzadas, instead of Patizambo. Keg, 
Bari-ica, especie de ionel, instead of cunete or barrilito. Purloiner, Ladron que hurta d 
escondidas, instead of ratero. Sounding-board, Soyabrero de puljnto, instead of tornavoz. 
Span, Palmo, la distancia que hay desde el dedo "^sd/ice," instead of '■'■el pulgarP There 
are also a great number of verbs, adjectives, and substantives in Seoane's work, which, in- 
stead of being accurately rendered by equivalents, are obscurely and often en-oneously 
defined by ])eriphrasis. The following examples must suffice : To Imprecate, Maldecir, 
instead oi Imprecar. Henpecked, El que estd gobernado for su mujer, instead of Gurru- 
mino. Inserviceable, Lo que no sirve para nada, instead of Inservible, &c., &c. 

The Editor does not flatter himself that his own work is perfect; but, at the same time, 
he feels at liberty to assert, that in many important resjiects it is greatly superior to its pre- 
decessors. It contains, in both languages, the exact equivalents and correspondents of the 
words in general use, both in their literal and metaphorical acceptations. The technical 
terms most frequently used in the arts, and in chemistry, botany, medicine, and natural 
history, as well as nautical and mercantile terms and phrases, — the greater part of which, as 
may be seen by comparison, are not contained in other Dictionaries, — have been carefully 
selected and arranged in the present work. It also contains many Spanish words used only 
in those countries of America which were formerly dependencies of Spain. The irregulari- 
ties of the verbs, in Spanish and English, are here, for the first time, given in full, in their 
alphabetical order; and, in addition to this, the work also contains a grammatical synopsis 
of both languages, arranged for ready and convenient reference. 

The pronunciation of the Castilian language is so clearly set foi-th in this Dictionary, as 
to render it well-nigh impossible for any person who can read English readily, to fail ol 
obtaining the true sounds of the Spanish words at sight. 

Particular attention is invited to the Phonetic Aljihabet used in the English-Spanish 
Part, for conveying the true pronunciation of English words. The Editor respectfully asks 
of all who, with himself, acknowledge the Castilian as tlieir mother-tongue, that before con- 
demning in advance this new and perfect method of expressing the sounds of the letters in 
the English alphabet, they will carefully read the " Introduccion " to the Second Part ot 
this work. He is well assured that by so doing they will, with moderate effort, find them- 
selves able, in a very short time, to conquer all the manifold difficulties of English pronun- 
ciation ; and by obtaining the assistance of an American or an Englishman, to read to them 
carefully once or twice the examples attached to the "Key" in the "Introduccion," they 
cannot fail to obtain readily a knowledge of the true sounds of the Phonetic Alphabet. 

The constantly increasing intercourse betw^een those countries wdiere the English and 
Spanish languages are respectively spoken ; the friendly relations that exist, and which it is 
so desirable may continue to exist, between the governments and people of those countries ; 
the proximity in this Western hemisphere of two gi-eat people speaking these noble 
languages ; the incessant migration and immigration which are daily bringing them face to 
face in all the relations of political, commercial, and social life, and the cheering promise 
which science holds out, in the wonderful achievements of steam and magnetism, of still 
greater and more frequent intercourse among civilized nations, — these are facts which may 
suggest a field of extended usefulness even to the humble comjnler of a Dictionary. It has 



v\ PREFACE. 



accordingly been tlie aim and constant desire of the Editor to lay a foundation for niu 
asteem and i-espect, and strengthen the bonds of an enduring intercourse between 
people of his own and his adopted country, by furnishing to each the means of becon 
better acquainted with that great exponent of a nation's interior life which is foimd ii 
permanent literature. The hope, on the one hand, that his labors might lead 
descendants of the Anglo-Saxon race to a more intimate knowledge and appreciatioi 
the immoital works of Cervantes and his worthy compeers, as they exist in pure Castili 
and, on the other, that they might also be instrumental in giving to the Spanish min 
renewed and quickened desire to become more intimately acquainted with the rich 
varied stores of English and American literature and science — this hope has been suflic 
to convert what would otherwise have been intolerable drudgery into a useful 
ennobhng occupation. 

As the Editor has been guided in his labors, for the most part, by his own limited att 
ments, he has reason to feai', in a work composed of so great a variety of articles upor 
extensive a diversity of matters, that he has not always succeeded in avoiding errors. Sh( 
such be found, he has no desire that they should be concealed, but will feel thankful ra 
to all who may assist him to correct them, for the benefit of the public, whose true i 
rests, and no other motive, have compelled him to undertake his laborious and unap 
dated task.

A SYNOPSIS 



OF THE 



SPANISH OR CASTILIAN LANGUAGE. 



* ' •■ 



Thk Parts of Speech are: the Article, the I^^oun 
JsubBtantivo and adjective), the Pronoun, the Verb, 
the Participle, the \idoerh, the Prefosition, the Con- 
junction, and the Int-erjection. 

The Definite Article. 

Mascaline, sin^. The, El : pL The, Los. 

Feminine, " " Lii : " " Las. 

When the article el comes after de (of or from), or a 
(to), the em suppressed and they are thus written; of 
the, del, to the, al. instead of de el, a el. No apos- 
trophe ' is used in Snanisli. 

1. A(/uii, water; affuila, eagle, &c., though femi- 
nine, take the masculine article j but only in the sin- 
gular, and when thev are immediately preceded hy it. 
—OUendorf, pp. 2S5, 460. 

2. Common no\ms taken in a general sense in Eng- 
lish, require the definite article in Spanish : as, Man 
is mortal, El hornhre es mortal. Charity is the first of 
virtues, La carid'td. e-" hi primera de kts Kirtudes. But 
when the sense is indeterminate, they do not admit it: 
as. Give him bread, Dale pan. 

3. Before nouns of measure, weiglit, or number, the 
Englisii indefinite article is rendered into Spanish by 
the definite, and tVequentlj' omitted ; as. He paid six 
dollars a barrel. El pagb a cinco pesos el lavril, or 
cinco peftos harril. 

4. The English definite and indefinite articles before 
ordinal numbers preceded by proper names, nouns in 
apposition, national nouns, as well as those signifying 
dignity, profession, trade, &c., of persons, and in ex- 
clamations, arc omitted in Sp;mish : as, Ciiarles the 
Fifth, Carlos quinto ; Madrid the capital of Spain, 
Madrid capital de Eq'iana ; He is an American, E'l es 
Americano ; She is <i milliner, Ella es modista ,' What 
« pity ! / Que lastima ! — Ollendorff, p. 4r'L 

The Indefinite Article. 

Masculine, sing. A or an, Un. Feminine, sing. A or 
an, Una. The plural un-os (masculine), and unas 
(feminine), are translated into English by the pronoun 
some : as, a man, un homhre ; some men, unoslumibres. 

5. The English indefinite article coming between an 
adjective or a pronoun and a noun, generally is not 
translated ; but when it is emphatioal it is placed be- 
fore the adjective ; as. So beautiful a woman, Tan 
iermosa miijer, or Wna mujer tan hermosa. Such a 
Oian, 2'al komhre, or Un tal hombre. 

THE NOUN SUBSTANTIVE. 
Spanisli ^ouns have Gender, N-uinher, and Case. 



Gender. 

It is masculine or feminine. Every he, or male ani- 
mal, is of the masculine gCHder; every she or female 
is of the feminine. For the particular manner to be 
observed about the gender of some nouns, see OlUn- 
dorff, p. 42L 

6. The names of inanimate objects, or of things end- 
ing in a, ad, ion (hre, when it signifies quality'), are for 
the most part feminine ; and those terminating in «, 
i, o, or u, are generally masculine. For the exceptions 
see Olkndorf, p. 423'. 

7. Comnwn nouns ending in o, change o into a to 
form the feminine ; as, son, hijo, daugliter, hija. Those 
terminating in an, on, or or, add a for the feminine; 
as, a man loiterer, un holgazan ; a woman loitei'er, vna 
holgazana ; patron, patron / patroness, patrona ,• sliep- 
\\<i,rA, pastor • shepherdess, paatora. 

8. There are some nouns that express the difference 
of gender by a different word or terniintition ; as, fa- 
ther, padre; mother, madre ; poet, poeta ; poetess, 
poetisa. — Ollendorff, pages 246, 247. 

Number. 
Singular and Plural. 

9. Nouns ending in a short, or unaccented vowel, 
form the plural by adding s to the singular; as, boj, 
mvchacho ; boys, mnchachos. 

10. Nouns terminating in a long, or accented vowel, 
or in any consonant, or in y, add es' to form the plu- 
ral ; as, ruby, rubi; rubies, rubies ; captain, capitan ; 
captains, capita nes ; ox, bvey ; oxen, bueijes. Nouns 
terminating in s, change it into c, or retain it, and adrl 
es ; as, judge, juez ; judges, /«ec(?s, or Juezes. The first 
is most commonly used. Papa, mama, cafe, &c., are 
exceptions. — Ollendorff, p. 420. Consult the same 
page for the nouns used only in the singular, or in the 
plural termination. 

Case. 

11. The Nominative case expresses the subject of the 
verb ; as, The man gives, El komhre da. 

12. The Ohjcctiue case direct points out the imme- 
diate object of tlie action of the verb ; as. The man 
gives alms. El homhre da limosna. 

13. The Objective case indirect, or corwplement, indi- 
cates the term, or end of the action expressed by the 
verb; as, The man gives alms to the poor. El hombn 
da linu/sna d los pobres. 

14. When the of/ject direct of an active transitive 
verb is a person, a, proper or personified noun, it must 
be preceded by the preposition a, ; as, A man musi 



VIU 



A SYNOPSIS 



love man, Elht>mhre(Mieamars.\ homhre • Isubella con- 
quered Granada, Isabel eonqimtb a G-ramida • Tlie mi- 
ser loves no other God but his money, El avaro no 
•una otro Dkis que a su dinero. 

Augmentative and Dimindtive Nouns. 

15. A :gmentaUi;e nouns are those that increase the 
extCE* ot'tlieir signification by adding: on, ote, or azo to 
the masculirie nouns, and ona, ota, or asa to the femi- 
nine, suppressing their final letter, should it be a, e, 
oro / as, (a boy), " un tnuchacho, " " un vwcJuichon. " (a i 
'ti(f boy); " una w«oA<zcAa" (a girl), "una mucha- 
sAona''' (a biff (/n-\). 

16. The termination azo frequently signifies the blow 
or injury caused by the object to which it is added ; as, 
'Atigo (whip), un latigazo (a very large whip; a stroke 
with a whip). 

17. Dlminntl>;e nouns are formed by adding ito, i^fo, 
ico, or uelo for the masculine, and ita, illn, ica, or vela 
for the feminine, suppressing the final letter if it be 
a, 0, or e ; as, " un muchucho " (a boy), un muchachito, 
muchachillo, or 7nuchichuelo (a, little hoy) \ "una mu- 
chacha'''' (a girl), una muckachita, mnohachilla, or mu- 
chuchuelii (a little girl). 

18. The terminations ito, ita, &c., added to Christian 
names, or tliose that express relationship, indicate 
love, atfection, and regard towards the object ; thus, 
'■'■hernuinita^'' (dear sister); '■^ Juanito'''' (esteemed 
John), &c. 

THE NOUN ADJECTIVE. 

19. In Spanish the Adjective must agree with its 
noun, in Gender and Number • as, " un hombre rico'''' 
(a rick man), "una niujer rica" (a rich woman); 
" hombres ricos " (rich men), " mujeres rictts" (I'ich 
women). 

Gender of Adjectwes. 

20. Adjectives cndingin o are masculine, and change 
it into a to form tlie feminine; as, rico, rica (rich). 
Adjectives ending in on or an add a for the feminine ; 
as, griton, gritona (clamorous) ; haragan, hiragana 
(idle). Those ending in any other letter are common 
to both genders: as, "un hombre prudente''^ {a pru- 
dent man), " una mujer pruderde " (a prudent 
woman). 

Excejition. — Adjectives ending in a consonant, and 
derived from the names of countries, add a to form 
their feminine ; as, Espanol, Espanola (Spanish) ; In- 
gles, laglesa (English); Andaltiz, Andaluza (Andalu- 
sian). 

NUMBEK. 

21. Adjectives form their plural according to the 
rules set forth for nouns; as, bianco, blancos (white) ; 
turqvi, tvrqvies (deep blue); natural, naturales {naXn- 
ral); feli-z, felicen (happy). 

Degrees of StGNiricATioN. 
Adjectives have three degrees of signification, the 
positive, the cofnparative, and the superlative. 
Comparatives. 

Comparatives may be considered under the three 
divisions of the comparative of equality, tlie coin- 
parative of superiority, and the comparative of in- 
feriority. 

The comparative of equality with adjectives is 
formeil with tan .... cnvw (as, so .... as) : as, " El es 
tan rico como ella" (He is as rich as she) ; " Ella no 
es tan hernios'a corns su hennana" (Shd is not so 
handsome as her sister). 

The comparative of equality with nouns is formed 
with tunio, tarda .... como (as much, so much .... 
QS) ; tiintos, tantas .... como (as many, so many .... 
ns) : as, " Ella tiene ta?do dinero como 6\ " (She has as 
much money an he) ; " El tiene tantas casas co7no su 
hermano " (He has as muny hou^es as his brother). 

In the coaiparative of equality with verbs, cuanto 
is sometimes substituted for como : as, " Tauto leo 
cuanto escriho " (I read as much as I write). 

Th(! comparative of superiority with adjectives is 
formed with mas .... que {more, or the termination 
er . . . . than) ; as, " El es mas rieo que ella" (He is 
richer than she) ; " El honor es mas (irecioso que las 
riiiiU'Zas" (Hf>nor is more precious than riches). 

Before no\nis of number, 7>iore than is rendered by 
ma-i de ; as, " Illlos gastaron m<is de quiiiicntos p(!S0s " 
'They spent more than five hundred dollars). But if 



the phrase be negative, mas que is used ; as, " No 
tengo mas que dos libras " (I have no rnore than two 
pounds). 

The more .... the more, with an intervening verb, 
is rendered by cuanto mas .... inas, or cuanto mat 
. .. . tanto mas • as, " Cuanto mas estudia, tanto mui 
aprende " ( The more he studies, tlie more he learns). 

The comparative of inferiority is formed with menot 
. . . . que (less .... than) : as, " La plata es menos util 
que el hierro " (Silver is less useful than iron). 

Before nouns of number, less than is translated by 
menos d-e ; as, " Neeesito menos de tres reales " (1 need 
less than three shillings). 

The less .... the less, with an intervening verb, is 
rendered by cuanto menos .... tanto menos ; as, 
" Cuanto menos trabaja, tanto menos gana " (JThe less 
he works, the less he gains). 

Superlatives. 

English superlatives ending in est, or formed by 
most, arc rendered l)y prefixing the definite article to 
the Spanish comparative; as, '■'El mas sabio'' (tho 
wisest) ; "to mas ingrata" (the most ungrateful). 

Superlatives in English with eery are formed in 
Spanish by prefixing muy to the adjective, or by 
affixing to it the termination isimo ; as, '■' Muy hdbil 
or hahilisimo " {very skilful) ; '■'■muy facil or faciUii- 
1710 " {very easy). 

I/Tegular Comparatives and Supierlatives. 

Po8. Conip. Super. 

Bueno, mejor, optimo. 

Malo, peiir, pi'simo. 

Grande, mayor, niiiximo. 

Pequeno, menor, niiiiimo. 

Alto, superior, supremo. 

Bajo, inferior, infimo. 

Miicho, mas. 

Pooo, menos.

Passive Verbs. 

Passine verbs are formed from active transitive verbs 
by addinfj tlieir jiarticijjle past to tlie au.xiliary verb 
ser (to be), throiio-h all its cliansfes, as in English ; 
thus, from the active verb amar (to love), is formed 
the passive verb ser amado (to be loved). 

The participle must Hgree in gender and number 
with the nominative it refers to; thus. He is loved 
{el es amudo) • she is loved {ella es amada) ; they are 
loved {elhs unn amados). 

Pronominal or Reflective Verbs. 

A pronominal or reflective verb is conjugated by pre- 
fixing the pronouns ?«^, te, .5«, V. se ; tio.^, as, se, VV. se 
to the verb according to its person and number ; as, 
he arms himself, el se arma. 

In the infinitive and imperative moods the pronouns 
are placed after the verb, and in one word with it ; 
the pronoun, therefore, must be suppressed, in order 
to find out the conjugation : thus, To approach, 
aoercarse, (se) aeercar, first conjugation. 

Remarks on the Use of the Subjunctive Mood. 

Three are the terminations of the imperfect tense 
subjunctive mood ; ra, ria-, se. — The termination ra, 
or se, is used when the verb is governed by a condi- 
tional conjunction, and the verb that completes the 
pense of the phrase is placed in the termination riu- ; 
If he hud money, hQwoiild /unythe liouse, ^S'i (-7tuviera 
di.nero. compraria la casa : — if the verb begins without 
a conditional conjunction, the termination ra or ria 
may be used, placing the verb that completes the 
sense in the termination .9e; as, It would be proper 
that yon should write to him, Fuera or seria hueno que 

V. U excrihiese. 

Verbs signifying command, wish, supplication, &c., 
beinir in the present indicntive, require the governed 
verb in the present subjunctive ; and if they be in any 
of the past tenses of the indicative, the governed verb 
must be in the termination ra or se, of the subjunc- 
tive.— See OlUndorff, p. 352, 56, 64, 68, 481. 

The Gerund. 

The gerund is that part of the verb that terminates 
in undo in verba of the first conjugation, and in iendo 
in those of tlie second and third ; as, pjvhlicundo 
(publishinir), from puUicar ; prometiendo (promis- 
ing), from promoter ; nsistiendo (assisting), fi-om 
tuistir. It admits no change for gender or number. 

It is translated by the English present particiiilc, 
ond conjugiited with the verb f.ster (to be) ; as, Ana- 
atasia is rcadinL', and Maria Ann is plaving on the 
piano (Aniisti/sia e^td lei/endo, y Maria Ana esta 
tocando el piano). 

PARTICIPLE. 
Tlie passive or past particij)le terminates in ado in 
he first conjugation, and in ido in the second and 
third. It changes its terminntion aceordintr to the 
number and gender of the person it refers to ; except 
when it follows innnediately after the verb haher, in 
irhicb case it does not admit of any change. 



All passive participles that do not terminate in ad<. 
or ido are called irregular; such are the following, 
from the verbs— 



To open, ahrir, ahierto. 
To cover, cuhrir, cuhierto. 
To say, decir, dicho. 
To write, escrihir, escrito. 
To fry. freir.,frito. 
To do, hacer, hecho. 



I To print, imprimir, impreao 

I To die, morir, m,uerto 

I To solve, solver, euelto. 

I To see, ver, visto. 

I To put, poner, puesto. 

I To turn, volver, vuelto. 



Their compounds have the same irregularity. 

VERBS THAT HAVE TWO PARTICIPLES. 

There are some verbs that have two passive partici- 
ples, the one regular and the other irreirular. Sue? 
are: — To h\eii!i,bendecir, bendeeido, l/endito; to com 
pel, cornpeler, compelido, compuho ; to convert, conver- 
tir, convertido, eonverso ; to awake, despertar, desper- 
tado, despierto ; to elect, elegir, elegido, electo ; to ex 
press, e.rpresar, expresado, expreso ; to &K,JiJar. fi;ado, 
fljo • to satiate, hartar, hartado, hiirto; to include, :i- 
cluir, incluido, incluso ,• to join, J untar, jnntado, J anto ,' 
to arrest, premier, prendido, preso ; to provitle, pro- 
veer, prrveido, provisto ; to break, romper, rompido, 
rata ; '.o loosen, soltar, soltado, suelto • to suspend, 
sii'pender, suspendido, suspenso, &c. 

The regular participles of these verbs are used to 
form the compound tenses with haber ; as, He has 
awaked enrly {el ha dispertado temprano). 

The irreguhir partici])les are used as verbal adjec- 
tives, and with the verbs ser, &c., and do not tbrin 
compound tenses with haher ; excepting preso, pres- 
critn, provisto, roto, and a few others ; as. He is early 
awaked (el estd despierto temprano) ; They have pro- 
vided {ellos han provisto or proveido.) 

ADVERBS. 

Adverbs are formed from adjectivesof one termina- 
tion by the addition of 7nente ; as, duke, An\Qe?nente : 
and from those of two terminations, by adding menti 
to ilie feminine ; as, gracioso, gracios«??ic/(<«. They 
admit the sufierlative ; as, graciosviimame-ite. 

When two or more adverbs ending in ly occur in 
the same sentence, the termination me.nze is added to 
the last only ; as. He speaks elegantly and correctly 
{cl habla ciirrecta y elegantemente). 

(For a collection of adverbs, see Ollendorff, p. 456.)
