"This work, by one of our most accomplished oriental scholars, is delightful from its novelty; but its true praise is that it unfolds before us the finest part of a national literature and thereby illustrates a highly interesting national character."-Blackwood's Magazine.

"This is a most important addition to our literature, and it will surprise those literary men who were, till now, but little acquainted with the learning of the Hindus."—New Monthly Mag. 3466 WILSON'S Grammar of the Sanscrit Language, 8vo. (pub. at 18s) cloth, 78 6d 1841

The above is an excellent substitute for the scarce second edition of Wilson. The author states in his preface: "The main object of this work was to bring Wilson's Dictionary to the 8vo. form without diminishing the size of the type or the number of words. This has been effected and a little more; for while the number of the words has been increased, the number of pages has been a little reduced." 3468 SANSCRIT Works and Tracts: Wilson's Sanscrit Dictionary, impft. 1818; Odes to the Ragas, Calc. 1818; Forster's Sanscrit Grammar, impft.; Bopp's Lehrgebäude der Sanskrita Sprache, 1827, impft.; Delius, Radices Pracr. 1839, and others, in all 20 vols. 4to. and 8vo. the lot a bargain, 12s

3506 REDHOUSE'S English and Turkish Dictionary, in 2 parts: Part I. English and Turkish. Part II. Turkish-English; in which the Turkish words are represented in the Oriental character, as well as their correct pronunciation and accentuation shewn in English letters, by J. W. Redhouse, F.R.S.A., Member of the Imperial Academy of Science of Constantinople, &c. &c. in 1 stout vol. sm. sq. 8vo. xxvi. and 1151 pp. (pub. at £2.) cloth, 32s B. Queritch, 1857

The first English and Turkish Dictionary, published, written by Mr. Redhouse, a thorough Turkish Scholar, who resided for 20 years in Turkey, employed by the British and Turkish Governments in their diplomatic intercourse; the Author of the only printed Dictionary of the Turkish Language, explained in Turkish, for the use of Turks.

This Dictionary has the Orthography of the Turkish Words, as also their correct pronunciation and accentuation, two things never achieved, and, the latter never attempted, even in the best Dictionaries published on the Continent. It cannot fail of being acceptable to the very great number of our countrymen now interested in obtaining quickly a competent knowledge of the language of our eastern allies; the greater number of errors to be traced in every page of the more voluminous and much more expensive continental works of Meninski, Bianchi and Hindoglou, is a circumstance which greatly deteriorates the value of their productions.

The Turkish Language is, in itself, well worthy of the labour of being acquired; there exists in that language, a literature, mostly in manuscript as yet, it is true, as varied and as refined as that which is known to be found in the Persian tongue. In a political, and in a commercial view, the tongue of the Ossmanli merits as great attention as any, since its use, or that of its congeners, among natives of every sect or nationality, or among official people, is spread from Tunis in Africa, throughout the Turkish Empire, the northern half of Persia, Khorassan, to Independent, Chinese, and Russian Tartary. But it is as true, as it will appear singular, that whether from apathy, or from the fatal delivering themselves up into the hands of double sets of interpreters (one set consisting of Greeks, Armenians, Jews, or Levantines, who explain verbally between Europeans and Turks, and the other of Turkish writers, who reduce these verbal explanations into written forms of their own), the greater part of our merchants and consuls living in Turkey, some for periods of fifty years, are unable, with a few rare exceptions, to read a word of the language, or perhaps to understand it when read to them; and many are incapable of uttering a single phrase in common conversation. The fact, however, of servants, working engineers, and others, picking up Turkish in a short time, without books or aids of any kind, is sufficient to indicate that there is nothing peculiarly difficult in the language itself; while the mere mechanical difficulty of the handwriting, as is known to all students, is equally easy to be got over with a little practice.

"A creditable publication. An English Turkish Dictionary was a great desideratum and you have been fortunate in getting the best Turkish scholar of the day to write it. "British Museum, Oct. 16, 1836.
