PRIKTEO BY JOHN BELLOWS
6L0UCB8TER, ENGLAND

INTRODUCTION.

ri"^HE present work has been designed to provide tlie student with the enlarged edition of
J_ Bellows' "French and English Pocket Dictionary," for whicli he has long been asking.
The features of that little book — its originality of arrangement and design, and its general
usefulness — have been familiar, for many years, to innumerable travellers on both sides of the
Channel and of the Atlantic: owing to its merits, it has in fact come to be regarded much
more as the friend and companion of its possessor, than as a dictionary in the ordinary
meaning of the wont. The present volume is but the logical development of that work —
reproducing its leading features, in more extended form, for the benefit of those who stay at
home; and aiming to be as useful in the class-room, the office or the library, as its little
forerunner has shown itself in the field of travel.

It is not a simple matter, in a book like this, to suit the needs of every reader upon all
occasions ; neither is it easy, where space is a consideration, to avoid the sacrifice of certain
words of secondary value which may yet be full of interest and meaning. In the compilation
of these pages, tlie aim has been to comprise such portions of the French and English
languages as will serve for all the ordinary purposes of the life we live to-day; for, as Littre
so well puts it in liis preface, " I'usage conteraporain est le premier et le principal objet d'un
dictionnaii-e." And not only have the ordinary or daily requirements of the general reader
been considered, but this dictionary will be found to contain its full share of technical words
and combinations, alive, it is believed, with the life that is the joy of the translator, and
derived, wherever possible, from the most authoritative sources.

The initiator and inspirer of this work, John Bellows, has not lived to see its publication.
But at his death in 1902 he left behind him something of greater value even than the manu-
script upon which he loved to labour ; for in the memory of his life and work lay just that
inspiration to continue to the end, which has so often been the needed mainstay of the reviser.
Another name to be remembered witii gratitude for good work done in days gone by, is that
of the late Professor Alexandre Beljame, whose services — so valuable in the revision of the
original edition — were unfortunately not available in the preparation of the present one.
Others, however, have taken up the task : and among these the first place must be given
to the two good helpers whose names appear upon the title-page. With a practical experience
of the art of dictionary-making, and long acquaintance with the needs of language-students,
the first of these helpers — Auguste Marrot — has won my best tminks for his long-continued
and conscientious aid in the revision of this book. So also has Gustave Friteau— the enthu-
siastic teacher of our language at the College of Versailles — whose work, he will admit, has
been a labour of love from the beginning. To the names of these esteemed co-workers must be
added those of my friends MM. Ardouin, Guillemin, Claverie, and Hebert — compagnons de
voyage on the journey from A to Z, who, by expert knowledge of the route, have made that
journey easier. My sister Marian Gibbins undertook the responsible and very tedious task of
the initial proof-reading, a service for which it is difficult adequately to thank her. Neither is it
easy to express my sense of obligation to the un-named and innumerable helpers, whether
in France or in this country, who have contributed to the enriclmient of these pages.

I cannot close without a grateful reference to the work of the type-setters and printers ;
and in this connection I would wish especially to acknowledge the faithful services of Edward
Holders to whose share so large a portion of that work has fallen.

NOTE TO THE THIRD EDITION.

I AM indebted to many friends and correspondents on both sides- of thetlhannel for much
of the new matter which distinguishes tlie present (or third) Edition of this dictionary
from its predecessors. I especially record with gratitude my obligation to my friend Leopold
Cust, whose contributions (especially in the field of technical renderings) have left their
permanent mark on the text of the vocabulary. I also deeply appreciate the interest which
Professor G. Bonet-Maury, of Paris, has shown in the revision of this work, and the practical
help which he has so often given to me. And if I wish further to remind myself of the fact
that no individual wisdom is sufficient for a task needing the combined intelligence of many
brains. I have only to reflect on the valuable suggestions I have also received from A. J. de
Ha\iiland Bushnell. M.A.. P. Le Roy. and other esteemed correspondents. To each and all of
tliese I offer mv sincere thanks.

XijUIXO^JM. the dicUonary.]

Oue dot (T') marks u terminal as silent, except when the word immediately following
begins with a vowel or silent h. In addition to this, two dots (T") mark it as silent [or if an
N" that it remains nasal] even when followed by u word beginning with a vowel or silent h.

Example. Chez' given with one dot indicates that the z is silent when followed by a con-
sonant, but forms liaison when followed by a vowel — that is. the z is carried on. so
that Chez elle sounds Chi-zeUe ; but on the other hand, COUP" given witli two doti>
indicates that the P is silent under all circumstances, so that Uri coup a la fiHs is
sounded " Un cou u la fbis." and not " Un cmi-pa," etc.

The dot. or double dot, followed by an K as an indication of tlie feminine form
[as UMOUSIN"-R] must uf course be understood as applying to the masculine only.

PRONUNCIATION.

The pronunciation of words — in the many cases where it is given — is shown by phonetic
spelling in Ualic type, either between brackets immediately after the words themselves, or
printed down t)ie left side of the type-columns. The phonetic spelling thus shown after a
S'reHch word is, of course, intended for the use of the Knglish reader, and vice versa ; and.
although it is not claimed that the exact pronunciation or accentuation of a word can thus be
accurately conveyed in every instance, yet the reader will certainly l)e enabled thereby
to pronounce words with a degree of correctness which would l>e wholly out of his reach
without such aid. Vocal teaching in thes^ matters is not always available; and as it makes
all the difference to the foreigner who has occasion to use a word, whether he is able to pro-
nounce it so as to be understood, or wliether by mispronunciation he renders it impossible for
the person to whom he speaks even to guess what he moans, the phonetic guidance given in
these pages will often prove of value. To take the combination e a in the English words
Bean. Bear. Beat. Lead, and Tear, for instance, how can a Frenchman who is lieginning to
learn the language tell what sound the ea may i-epresent when even an Englishman can by
no possibility say on looking at Lead and Tear, whether they rhyme with ""deHd" and "near,"
or "deed" and 'fair," unless he flrst ascertains whether they individually stand for Lead (the
metal) or Lead (guidance) : or Tear (a rent in a fubric) or Tear, a tear-drop '.'

On the other hand, it becomes impossible for a Frenchman to mistake in pronouncing
either of these words when be finds given along with them, in brackets, tliu phonetic signs —
line, ber, bite, ledd, lide, taire. tire.

To say that such indications are u.><eless because there are some words to which they can-
not be applied is a mistake. Suppose there is one word in twenty of which we cannot picture
the sound to a foreigner, owing to some peculiarity such as that of the English sliort i in
" simple," or tiie nasal n in " thicken," is lliis any reason why we should not give the pronun-
ciation of the other nineteen words, about which there is not even the shadow of a difficulty
beyond that of the class of sounds to which they severally belong?

Even if we go a step further, and take words whose pronunciation can lie nearly, but tuit
exactly, given, it is incomparably better to give it nearly than not at all. Thus, the indication
that ch in chip is pronounced tell, will not keep a Frenchman from sounding the i too long:
but it will keep him from pronouncing the word as " sheep," and thus being unintelligible.
The fh is proverbially difficult, and its difficulty is increased by its representing twi> different
8ound.s. as in "tftin" and "rtine:" yet with the simple assistance given under the heading TH
and the corresponding marks of " fbrt " or " ftUble " opposite each word, any Frenchman can
sound either of these combinations very nearly as it ought to be sounded. Or again, where he
is warned that on in Mould must be pronounced like o : or a in Mate, as e : or tt in niMd, or a
in alone, as e in le, te. sezor a in Salt as o in Sort : he will utter either of these words
correctly enough.

Tlie sound of the English terminal {''(■n ably, fully, pity, etc.) is somewhat between the
Fi-ench e and i, but very much nearer the former than the latter: and as the slight exaggera-
tion of 4 is much less unpjeasant than that of t, which has an air of caricature about it, and
often raises a smile at tlie speaker's expense, e has been adopted in tliis book wherever the
sound would admit of its employment.

See also the examples given at the word Imhuoh in the Dictionary.

PREPOSITIONS IN ITALICS.

Attention is drawn to a footnote throughout the Dictionary to the effect that Vreposilions
used before nouns and participles are printed in Boman type, and those before verbs in ItaXic
type. This refers to prepositions where they stand alone; for it has not been thought
necessary to sliow the distinction when it is already indicated by a verb accompanying the
preposition. Thus, at the verb "Faire va." to make, to do etc., there is no necessity for
italicizing the to, because the thing is clear per se.

GENDER.

Every feminine word is printed in itcUics througiiout tlio Dictiunary, not only in its
alphabetical rank and in each place in which it occurs as a direct rendering, but also in the
midst of expLmatory sentences, so that, even fi:here its gender is not in qiiestion, it shall never-
tlieiess be prominent.

In the case of certain compound words, however, a difficulty has had to be overcome,

due to the employment of the space-ecooomizing dash ( ) which stands, tiiroughout th«

dictionary, for the repetition of a leading word. While nothing could be clearer than printing
each unit of a compound in its own separate gender where it is given in full (as for instance
COUP de MAIN), yet when the first word, which is printed once for all at the head of the

article of which it forms the subject, is afterwards only represented by a , there might be a

danger of a beginner being misled if he saw | de MAIN, from his taking it as a feminine

word because the only part of it printed in full (in the word Main) is shown as such. Wher-
ever this has seemed likely to occur, the printing has been made to represent tlie gender of
the WHOIjE compound, instead of that of its latter member only : thus —

COUP blow (etc.] _ de MAIN sudden dash : bold stroke (etc.)

A glance at the two lines SAUTE de VENT and SAUTE-en-BARQUB will show the
force of this : for if, in either of these instances, the first portion had happened to be shown by
a dash only, the user of the Dictionary might easily have been misled as to the gender.

^KEY WORDS.

In the great majority of cases the KEY WORDS (,i.e., the words between brackets indica-
ting the sense to which the rendering applies) are given in the language of the chief word —
French where the chief word is French, and English where the chief word is English. There
are, however, a few instances where this rule has been reversed, in order more suitably to
convey the sense : as. for instance, in line 27 under the word Faire (Faire sauter.) The
BLACK BRACKET cuts off a key word, etc., from matter to which it does not belong, while
the light one separates it from a word having reference to it (thus.]

METRIC AND OTHER TABLES.

It is greatly to be hoped that the Metric System of Weights and Measures will before
long be officially adopted throughout the British Empire ; for it is impossible to calculate Uie
extent to which we handicap ourselves by the continued retention of our own antiquated
standards. In the meantime, and pending the introduction of this great reform, we must do
the best we can with tables of comparison. At pages 34 to 39 the reader will find a series of
such tables compiled to assist him in all his ordinary difficulties, and embodying not only a
comparison of the standards of length, weight, and capacity, l)ut those compound equivalents
which are often the most difficult to appreciate. The tables have been compiled and checked
with every care, and the technical reader or the man of business may accept them as accurate
and reliable.

Another feature of this work which will doubtless prove of value to the reader is the table
of French and English dates given on page 40. Beginning with the first of the Capet kings
of France, and coming down to the present time, it amounts — in brief —to the progress of the
two njitions through a thousand years of histf^ry.

MISPRINTS.

Great care has been bestowed upon the proof-reading of this work : the type-matter has
been read and re-read and read again with so much close attention, that it is hoped and
believed that serious errors in the printing will prove but rare exceptions. Nevertheless, and
in spite of unremitting vigilance, 'errare humanum est'; and the reviser will be glad to be
informed of any misprint or typographical defect which may at any time come under the
notice of the reader.

INote. — Among the many standard dictionaries which have been
consulted in this revision are those of Littre, Hatzfeld & Darmesteter,
and Larousse : and. for English words, the ' Century ' Dictionary and
the great work of Murray. Of books on special, subjects, the assist-
ance of the following (to mention only some) must be acknowledged :
Guyot's ' Dictionnaire de Commerce,' 'Les Oiseaux de France,' by
d'Hamonville. ' Dictionnaire de Slang,' by Legras. ' L' Argot des Tran-
chees,' by Sainean, Coxe's 'Manual of French Law,' and Nares on
' Seamanship.']

77. CONJUGATING NEGATIVELY.

Ne pas parler, Xot to speak. — Xe parlant pas, Xot speaking. — Pas parle. Xot spoketi. — N'avoir
pas parle, Not to have spoken. — N"ayant pas parle. Xot Itaoing spoken.

[dans la conversation on dit .]

Je HE parle VAS. I do not speak, o\i. I am not si)eakin!/ I don't, pour 7 do not

Que je XE parle PAS, that I may not speak I mayn't, n I may not

Je NE parlais PAS. I did not speak, ou. I uas not speaking ... I didn't, n I did not

Je XE psLTlerni PA.S. I shall not speak, ou. I tcill not speak • ] j f^"",'' " jfriH^/of

Je X'ai PAS parle, I Jiave not spoken I haven't, n I have not

Je N'avais PAS parle, I had not spoken I tiadu't. n I had not

Je N'aurais PAS parle. I sliouid nU have spoken I shmddn't, n Ishmiidnot

Je NE parle QU^RE. I scarcely ever speak. — Je NE parle JAMAIS. / tieuec sj)eak.
Je NE i^rle PLUS, I no longer speak.— Je NE parle POINT, I do not speak at all. [F. foil, note.]
[The difference between PAS and POINT is that Pas is a less emphatic negative (and is
much more frequently used) than Point : tlius. II ne fume pas. He is not smoking : II ne
fume point. He does not smoke at all, i.e.. he never smokes. Je n'en ai pas, I haven't
any : Je n'en ai point. I have none wliatever. Use Pa< and not Point before Plus, Moins,
Si, Aussi, Autant : Berlin n'est pas aiissi grand que Paris, etc.
Pas and Point may be suppressed after the verbs Cesser, to cease : Oser, to dare ; and
Pouvoir, to be able : thus, Je n'ose le faire. I dare not do it : Je ne puis me taire, I cannot
be silent. Pas is omitted after Savoir. to know, when uiicertaiiit.v is expressed : II ne .*ait
ce qu'il dit, He doesn't know what he is saying. But where no doubt exists Savoir takes
Pas : Je ne sais |Ms le fran(;ais, I do not know French.]
Le verbe auxiliaire TO BE lEtre] ne prend pas DO ou DID. Xegativetnent on dit:^
I am not, Je ne suis pas : TTion art tiot, etc. A tres pen il'e.iceptions pres, TO HAVE [Afoir]
se comporte de meme : I have not. etc.

A participle accompanied by AVOIR never agrees with its subject, and only with its direct
object whea'that object precedes the participle. [V. examples on j). 30.]

When a neuter verb is followed by the preposition DE, the pronoun used as its complement
is EN, "of it : .some : any." [This EN is the Latin INDE (thence, hereupon, etc.]

When a noun is preceded by de, du. (te la, des, or the indefinite article, its complementary
pronoun is EN.

Was lie speaking of the E.xhibition?
He was [speaking of it, sous-entendu]
"Did he speak of." etc.? "He <nd."]
Have you bought any apples?
We have [bought some, sous-entendu]
When the noun is preceded by a, the pronoun must be Y, "there : here : at : to : to it." [This
Y is the liatin IBI (there.) By loss of the medial consonant it became i i, and then Y.]
A-t-ell", e^e a V Reposition? ... Has she been to the E.xhibition?

Oui, eHe Y a ete .S/ie has [Yes. s7ie has been to it.]

AUons a Rouen: un de nos amis Let us go to Rouen : a friend invites us there [on
nous invite a Y aller dit mieu.x, "has invited us there"]

When a verb is followed by any other preposition than those above mentioned (de. a. etc.)
the pronouns which serve as its complement are — moi, me : toi, thee : lui, him [or it] : elle. her
[or it] : nous, us : vous, you : eux. Ifem. elles^ them. These are placed in the same order in the
sentence both in tlie French and English — Devant lui. Before liim : Apres elles. [or eu.x] After
them.

GENERAL RULES.

GENDER OP NOUNS.

All iuipiirLiMl t'ealure of this dictionary is its metliod of distinguishing the genders of nouns
and adjectives by different types, the more readily to strike the eye, and therefore the more
deeply to impress the memory.

At tlie same time it is a fair general clue to the gender of words derived from the Latin and
Greek to know that nouns nhich are feuiinine in Latin are feminine in Frencli also, and words
which are masculine or neuter in Latin, as well as most words directly derived from the Greek,
are MASCULINE in French. There are exceptions : but to be fully master of these, the student
should examine the reasons for them, which are very interesting, and for whi<-h he should con-
sult some of the works specially devoted to this subject.

Of the French nouns which end in a consonant or other vowel than e imite. over G,0<X» are
masculine. Alxiiit ;'..000 are femimne. nearly all of which end in -io» or -te.

Of the nouns ending in e mtite. over 6.000 are feminine, and nlH>ut 2,.">00 masculine : of
these latter, nearly 1.00f» end in -age or -sm--

FORMATION OP FEMININE.

(1) If HU adjective does not end in E mute, the feminine is formed by adding one, thus : —

Grand, granite : joli, joJie ; except those comprised in the following rules :

(2) Substantives and adjectives ending in EUR form their feminine in EXJSK. if they are

derived from the present participle of a verb : Dans -ant -eur-ewse, &c.
(.12 e.xceptions.)

(3) Substantives and adjectives nvt formed from the pres. part, of a verb (as in the second

rule) change TEUR into TEICF. :

Acteur ->rice .^ccusateur -trice. Ac.

(4) Substantives and adjectiv^es in EUR. expressing an idea of comparison or superiority, form

their feminine regularly by the addition of an K mute :

Anterieur -e \ Inferieur -e \ Superieur -e \ Meilleur -c, ic.

(5) Substantives and adjectives in EAU have their fenxininc ending in RLLE:

Un jouvenceau. r'lie joi'ijeticefle j Beau, hcH« | Xouveau. JioitveKe
X6). Substantives or adjectives ending in EIL. EL. EN, ET. lEN, or ON, double the tinal con-
sonant and add an K mute :
Pareil -He | Criminel -He | Ancicn -nwe | Sujet -tte | Chretien -nne \ Fripon -mie

(7) Substantives and adj. in E mute undergo no change (except Traitre. traitresse, etc.):

Un or itne camarade | Un or »(»ie domestique | Aimable, celebre. facile, sage, 4c.

(8) Adjectives ending in F change this letter into VK :

Bref. hreve | Captif, captive | Veuf, veitre. ic.

(9) .\djectives ending in X change X into SE :

Creux. cref'«e i ■Jaloxix, jaloiise I Heureux. /leitrettse. Ac.

Nouns expre.ssing professions followed by men have often no feminitie, even when exercised
by tt-07Heij : as, Peintre, Poete, Professeur, Amateur, etc.

llany names of animals have different words for the masculine and the feminine : us. Cheval.
jument: Boeuf, wocTle: Taureau. ye'ni*^, etc.

[28]

[A] Tho aDJ£jCTI V £j ill French must agree both in gender and number, with the
noun or pronoun it describes or qualities: so that, while invariable in English, it lias
four forms in French,

Iln l>oii garijoii, Uiie botme filie. De bons gar<;ons, l)e bonnes liUesi,
A good \K>y. A good girl. Good Vjoys. Good girls.

[y. Poini. Feu, Grand, and Nu, in the Dictionary,]
NUMEKICAIi ADJECTIVES (except Un -c : Premier -iere : Second -e) have the same
form for lioth genders.
LB] When one adjective applies to two or more nouns, it must be in the plural : and if any one
of such nouns be masculine, the adjective must be masculine. It is well in such cases
to place the masculine substantive last in the series, although not always essential.
L'eaii et le viii sont bon S. | La coiir ot le jardin sont grand S.

Comparative and Superlative of Adjectives.

[C] En anglais le comparatif »e forme, jjour los mots tl'UNK SYLLAhK. en ajoiitant ...EK
ou ,..Il com me terminaismi.

A bright Hght : a brighter light. | A rare thing : a rarer thing.
Le superlatif, en ajoutant ...EST ou ...ST.

The brightest, rarest, sweetest, longest, shortest, etc.
Pour les mots de deux syllabes, ou plus, en raettant devant le positif ra<lveil>e MOKK.
MOST, etc.

A brilliant light : a more brilliant light : the most brilliant light.
Pour marquer les degres li'iufiirioritti on dit 'not so ... as' ou (niais celte for>ne est
beaucoup moins iisitee) "less ... than.'

A light not so Ijright as tlie other : It is not so rare, on. It is less rare.
[Dj The Freiicli makes the comparative with the adverb PLUS to mark superiority (tme
lumiere plus hrilhmte) HOINS to show inferiority (utie chose moins rare) AUSSI ... to
indicate equality (tiiie litmiere aussi brillante que I'aulre : a light h< brilliant as the
other.)
Phis and moins, followed by a number, require DE instead of QUE.

Plus dc3 vingt, moins de trente : more than 20, less than od.
The FRENCH SUPERLATIVE is formed by placing the delinile uriiele before tbr
adverb : la )>lus brillante Inmiere (or, la lamiere la plus brillante.)

Position of Adjective before or after the Noun.

LFJ >io hard and fast rule can be laid down for this: but subject to e.xceplions vvliich cusli'jii

and taste alone decide, it comes AFTER the noun in tho following cases.
[G] Adjectives that can be used alone as names of persons or of things, sucli as lainbitieiiN.

I'aveugle, le riche. etc. Un caractere ambitieux, un pays riciie, etc.
[H] Participles employed as adjectives: aimant, satisfaisant, decide, instruit etc

Un etre aimant : des raiaons satis faisantes : un caractere decide, eU:.
[ I ] Geographical adjectives (L'empire remain : la tnode aiigkiiie), and those denoting colour im-
matter, taste or tbrm : such as.

Rouge, jaune : aerien, sulfureux : acide, amer : rond, carre.
[K] Where the adjective can bo placed either before or after the noun, it gives either a
different degree of force to the meaning or a totally ditt'erent sense :

Une maison ■niagnilique, is 'a beautiful [or splendid] hou.se' : Une luayiiiftque maison. in
"a splen'did lor viagnif ice nf] house,' with a very strong accent on. and deliberate pi.'-
nunciation of the word splen'did [or nMgtiificent.'i

Une femtne sage.
Une .lage-femine.

etc.

iioiium.
.V pregnant ivomaii .
A prudent iioman.
A iniditife.

[29]

The ADVERB is invariable.

As in English it is formed by adding ...LY to tlie adjective, so. as a general rule, it is formed
in French by adding ...MEST to the feminine form of the adjective :
Ex. Doux. Dotwe : adverb. Doucement.
Actif. Active : ii Activement.
When the adjective ends in ANT (fern. AATJB) the adverb makes ...AMMENT :

Ex. Couraut. Coitrante : adverb. Couramment.
When the adjective ends in ENT, EXTK. the adverb makes ...EMMEXT :
Ex. Prudent. Pi-iiAente : adferb. Prudemment.

The PARTICIPE PRESENT is invariable.

On a trouve

(cet honime
cette feinme
I ces hommes
(^ ces femmes

parlant. lisant, chantant.

When it is employed as a VERBAL ADJECTIVE, however, it ceases to be a participle, and
must follow the same rule as other adjectives. \_V. 'Sola A on page 29.]

The difterence between a present participle and a verbal adjective is simple to an English-
man, as he may always ascertain it by remembering whether, if the word were translated into
English with the tenniuatiou ...ing, it would have to come ltef(/re. or aper the noun. If before,
it is an adjective: \iaper, it is a participle.

EXAMPLES

PRESENT PARTICIPLE.

VERBAL ADJECTIVE.

Cet homme est bon, OBLIGEANT tout le
monde quand il en trouve Voccasion.

Cette feiiime est bonne, OBLKtEAST tout
le monde quand elle le peut.

(That is. This man, or this voiiian obliges
everyone. It is merely the verb expressetl in
anotlier way.)

C'est un honime obligeant
C'est une femme obligeant e
Ce sont des persoiines obligeant e.<>
In each of these sentences "obligeant" is
variable, because it is used as an adjective to
describe the quality or character of its sub-
ject, but not the action of "To oblige.'
(That is, He is an obliging man.

She is an obliging trotnan.
They are obliging people.)

The PARTICIPE PASSE must agree in gender and

number ; —

[A] With the SUBJECT when employed with 6TRE [except in reflective verbs.]

[B] With the OBJECT when employed with AVOIR [or in REFLECTIVE VERBS with Etre.

which takes the place of Avoir] IF THE OBJECT BE BOTH DIRECT and placed
BEFORE THE PARTICIPLE.

Under all other circumstances it is INVARL^BLE.

EXAMPLES WITH feTRE.

ia loi est iupprime'i' ! .E(fe est aime'e | Mes fi'eres sont venu s

Variable,

because the DIRECT OBJECT is
BEFORE the participle.

WITH AVOIR.

Les livres que j'ai In s.
Lei> persoune-i que j'ai vues.
La lettre que j'ai ecrite.

WITH rrRE used for AVOIR.

3fo soeur s'est cotipee.

Co)ipee fern. sing., because SE, which
precedes it. is direct object [ma sontr a
coupe elle.]

Nous NOUS somnie.-. blesses en jouaut.

Blesses masculine plural, l>ecause the
second pronoun NOUS is the direct object
[nous avons blesse nous.]

Elles sont parties

Invariable,

because the DIRECT OBJECT is
AFTER the participle.

WITH AVOIR.

.J'ai lu les livres.
J'ai vu les personnes.
Jai ecrit deux lettres.

WITH rrRE used for AVOIR.

ifa saeur s'est coupe le doigt.

Coupe invariable, b«!cause the direct ob-
ject (doigt) is after the participle Inia .loeur
a coupe le doigt a elle.] The pronoun SE is
indirect object.

Xous NOUS sommes donne un rendez-vous.
Donne invariable, because the direct ob-
ject [un rendez-vous] comes after the parti-
ciple. Xous is indirect object.

[30]

well to avoid their use in conversation alto-

which are used to give increased force where
it is really needed : a force not infrequently
expressed in French by adding the phrase,

FAIRE

Jr B/IFG V. (Table 38) to make : to do : to be : to have : to get : to

[In Faisant, Faisable, Faisons, Faisiez, Faiseur, pronounce ai as e ." ' Fezan,' etc.]

Ce verbe est A'une application si etendue et si wtriie en fran<;ais qu'il donne lieu dans sa
traduction a plus d'erreurs que n'importe quel autre mot. Dans le but d'aider le lecteur
fran<;ais a se familiariser avec les idiotismes anglais qui sont necessaires pour le traduire,
I'auteur a cru devoir donner des explieations plus d^taill^es qu'elles ne le sont d'ordiiiaire dans
un dictionnaire de ce genre.

Au premier paragraphe on trouvera ce mot employe dans le sens general rendu en anglais
par le verbe 'to make,' et au second dans le sens qui correspond au verbe anglais 'to do.' A
2 'a state de chacun de ces paragraphes se trouvent des expressions dans lesgtielles la signifi-
cation du mot Faire est celle de ' to make ' ou ' to do,' mais pour la traduction ctBsqiielles I'anglais
exige un autre verbe : par exemple, ' Faire la conversation, To carry on a C," ' Faire un poeme,
un livre. To write a poem, a book.'

Ciomme il est impossible, meme dans un espace aussi etendu que celui qui est consacre ici a
ce sujet, d'indiquer toiites les formes idiotnatigiies qui se rattachent a Faire, le lecteur fera
bien de consulter dans le dictionnaire, le nom, ou le verbe, qui se trouve dans la locution a
traduire [V. Aller, AMITIE, ANTICHAMBRR, Baisser CORVEE, GAFFE, HONNEUR,
(EIL, PLUIE, et«.]

II faut encore noter deuxpoints importants :
S 1° Les Francjais emploient quelquefois Faire oomme verbe auxiliaire dans des cas oii son
equivalent anglais n'est pas exprime mais sous-entendu : par exemple, 'II a fait faire [ou fait
batir] une maison ' doit se rendre par ' He has built a house,' et jamais ' He has had a house
built.' Ceci a lieu arvec plusieurs verbes, comme, Faire acheter, faire defendre, faire publier,
faire voir, faire passer. To buy, to forbid (ou stop, ou get an injunction against,) to publish, to
show, to pass, — et dans les recettes de cuisine : 'Faites cuire deu.x ceufs. Boil two eggs,' etc.

Faire, avec un verbe neutre, se remplace souvent en anglais par un verbe actif sans auxiliaire,
comme dans : Faire venir. To send for, to fetch, etc. | Faire sauter. To blow up (with gun-
powder] to burst (a boiler] to break (a bank] etc. | Faire entrer, To show ... in : to call in ... |
Faire sortir, To show ... out : to call ... out | Faire monter, To show ... up : to call ... up |
*Fasse le ciel. May Heaven grant ... !

2° Tres frequemment I'idiotisme est tout a fait change dans la traduction, comme dans :
Faire la BARBE a. To shave [fig) to outwit : to 'do' | Faire bonne MINE a. To receive ...
well I Faire son DROIT", To read for the bar | Faire ses AFFAIRES, To get on : to be success-
ful in business | bien avec. To go [ou harmonize] well with | Faire I'EFFET' de. To look

Finger biscuits [The Ixmgtie d'OC and the

in the middle ages, and so called because OC
and OIL' were their respective forms of the
affirmative. Oc, used south of the Loire, is
from the Latin lux. The dialect north of the
Loire (of which the present French is the
historical continuation) used Oil, from the
two Latin words hoc illitd. The L was after-
wardsdropped, and the O became OU, whence

TON Ue-nn'] tonneau : tonne [French inland I

merchandise, agricultural products, etc., etc., i

generally 'mille kilos.'] [English ton) 1015
kilos. [U. States ' short ' ton) 907 kilos.

Note. A TON dead weight ('2240 lbs.) equals
1016048 kilos. : but in ordinary commercial
usage 1015 is taken as the equivalent. As the
French, however. only weigh 'standing beam,'
while the English give the turn of the scale,
this often causes a discrepancy between the
invoiced and the actual weight of the cargo.

1015 kilos, being the real standard, it has been
adopted in Table 90 (see beginning of the
Dictionary) where equivalent weights and
values for weight are given.

For TONS per ACRE = KILOS, par HEC-
TARE, V. Table 89.

The French MILLIER, or TONNEAU de MER,
is 1000 kilos. : or one and a half per cent,
less than the English ton.

The TON REGISTER [jauge officielle des
navires] is 100 cubic feet : for steamers this
is called gross register tonnage, from which
deductions are made for engines, etc. to get
the net register.

The TON MEASUREMENT in Great Britain
and its colonies, and in the United States, is
40 cubic feet. The French TONNEAU de
MER is 1-44 cubic metre = 50-85 English
cubic feet. At Table 90 are given equivalent
ships' freights, by English and by French ton
measurement on this basis. In some parts
of France, however, to avoid fractions, 1-50
cubic metre is taken as the tonneau au cubage.

DICTIONNAIRE GEOGRAPHIQUE

AVEC LA PRONONCIATION.

Note. The definite article is not employed in French after the preposition 'En';

as, En France, En Amerique, etc.

The names of English Comities are masculine, and take the article in French :

as. Dans le Lancashire, le Somersetsliire, etc.

Cornwall may eitlier be called Le Cornwall or lAl'Cornouailles.

The gender of names of towns in French is often difficult to affirm. Speaking generally,

sncli names ending in a nuite syllable are feminine; and in other cases,

masculine. In doubtful cases it is well to prefix the words la i-ille de ...
Most place-names ending in ...burg in English, become ...bourg in French.

ADDENDA

(Mots supplementaires a noter)

As it is impossible to include ali words and idiomatic phrases within the pages of this book, the
following blanks are supplied to enable the user of the Dictionary to record any which may appear of
sufficient interest or value to require noting. To facilitate reference, the abbreviation 'Add.' (for
Addenda) together with the figure at the end of the line (below) on which the word or phrase is thus
written, should be neatly inserted in the margin of the dictionary at the place where such word. &c..
would appear in its alphabetical order. Thus a marginal note 'Add. 14 ' at the word 'Conpcr' would
indicate that an additional rendering of Couper would be found at line U, below. In the case of a
new word, it is well to repeat the phrase in which it occurs, to leave no doubt as to its sense.
