This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project 

to make the world's books discoverable online. 

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject 

to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books 

are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover. 

Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the 

publisher to a library and finally to you. 

Usage guidelines 

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the 
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing tliis resource, we liave taken steps to 
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying. 
We also ask that you: 

+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for 
personal, non-commercial purposes. 

+ Refrain fivm automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine 
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the 
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help. 

+ Maintain attributionTht GoogXt "watermark" you see on each file is essential for in forming people about this project and helping them find 
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it. 

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just 
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other 
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of 
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner 
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liabili^ can be quite severe.

PREFACE. 



In preparing the first part of this work, my intention has been 
to compile a compact Arabic Dictionary, not only adapted to 
the wants of English travellers and young students, but also 
for the use of my own countrymen, who have hitherto had 
nothing of the kind. With this object in view, I have only 
selected those words which are in actual use, whether in con- 
versation or in diplomatic and commercial correspondence. I 
have even selected some foreign words which are used in our 
language. Indeed, I have attached more importance and paid 
more attention to the practice, than to the theories and long 
precepts, of our grammarians ; and I hope that, with the aid 
of this little Dictionary, any one will be able to render Arabic 
works, and especially all kinds of official and commercial cor- 
respondence into English. I trust that, small as it is, this book 
will be useful to travellers, consuls, commercial men, and young 
students, on account of its compact size, the careful selection 
of all the words in ordinary use, and their correct pronunciation. 
Other Dictionaries do not give the common pronunciation, but 
that adopted by the learned, which is wholly unintelligible to the 
great body of the people. 



VI FRSFACS. 

For any inaccuracies which have escaped my attention, I 
beg the kind indulgence of my readers. 

I earnestly hope that this work may be useful to the 
English who cultivate Arabic, as well as to the Syrians and 
Egyptians who study the English language ; and that it will 
assist in producing those happy results which I desire &om the 
bottom of my heart for Syria, my beloved country. May 
truth, justice, civilization, and Christianity, which prevail here, 
be re-established in the East. 

Should this book inspire the youth of my country with a 
desire to learn English, and to read the literature of that lan- 
guage, I shall be truly happy ; and so much the more, that the 
merit of such a result belongs to my friend Mr. Bernard 
Quaritch, who suggested the work to me, and to whom the 
learned world is already indebted for so many important and 
useful publications.

INTRODUCTION. 



VOWELS AND ORTHOGBAPHICAL SIGNS. 

The Arabs have only three characters for vowels, which they call 

Xfldj Fatha, ijJ^ Cawa, and Ia^ Ikunma, The first is represented 

by a small oblique line oyer the letter ; the second by a similar stroke 

under the letter ; and the third by a small cnrre, like a comma, as 

follows : — 

Fatha . . . . ( -^ ) sounding as a, 

Gasra . . . . ( ~7 ) sounding as i, 

Damma . . . ( -^ ) sounding nearly as o. 

These signs are sometimes doubled in the final letters, which 
doubling is then called ^^y^ ianwe&n, or nuntMiian, because the vowel 
is then pronounced as if terminated by ^^, as (J^j rqfolan, ' a man ;' 
Jx^i rajoUn\ lL>-i rqfolan. The first (^) marks the nominative 
case ; the second ( ^ ) the genitive, dative, and ablative ; the third ( ^ ) 
the accusative. It must be observed here that the final \ adds nothing 
to the sound when the accusative is pronounced. 

JuJuuu tathdid (* ) doubles the letter over which it is placed, as 

JjJ tunuala, 'he brought down.' 

^j^iJb hamsM (' ) is placed generally over the i, and sometimes over 
the J and 4^, and is considered as a guttural letter. 

Jlej tposla ( "* ) implies ' conjunction,' and is only inscribed over \ 
to mark an union with the preceding letter, \ being then silent, as 
aU1(^1::^ kitdhu-lloM, ' The book of God.' 

Jjc^ maida ( '^) implies * extension,' and is placed over \, giving it 
a long sound, as ^ Jl di^om. 

^f^ ioeoon ( *' ) signifies a pause,' and is placed over a letter 
that has no vowel. 



INTRODUCTIOK. xi 

[For the purpose of showing the reader that it is comparatively 
easy, with the aid of this Dictionaiy, to translate works in the Arabic 
language — the Bible^ the Kuran, or the One Thousand and One Nights, 
for instance — into English, I subjoin the Arabic words in the first 
chapter of the Euran with their equivalents in English. Every word 
will be found in the Dictionaryi with its proper rendering : — ]

religions we ha^e any traces of, being 
■apposed to be that which prevailed in 
Persia previous to the reign of Eishtasp 
(Darius Hystaspes) ; when it gave way 
to that of the Magi, then intr^uced by 
Zerdust or Zoro&iter. They believed in 
one God, and in the ministry of angels, 
or inferior deities, as represented by the 
■tars, which became in consequence high 
objects of their adoration. They h^d 
many tenets in common with the Ma- 
hometan, the Magian, the Jewish, and 
even the Christian religion, being by 
traTellcrs called Christians of St. John, 
because they adopted a species of bap- 
tism. Their chief pilgrinuu^es were to 
Haran in Mesopotamia, to Mecca, and to 
the pyramids or Egypt, which they «w^- 
posed to be the tomhs of Seth, and his 
sons Enoch and Sabi, whom they con- 
■idered as the founders of their faith. 
This was the principal religion of the 
Arabians before Moslemism, and is one 
of those tolerated by the Alcoran on 
paying a certain tribute to the prophet 
and his successors.

PREFACE. 



*' The greater part of our inerchants and consuls lirinff in 
Turkey, some for periods of fifty years, are unable, with a 
fert rare exceptions, to read a rtord of the languxtge, or per- 
haps to understand it when read to them ; and many are even 
incapable of uttering a single phrase in co?nmon conversation,'^ 
These words from the Preface to Redhoiise's Turkish Dictionary 
are equally applicable to the Arabic language, spoken in those 
vast countries which once constituted the powerful empire of 
the Caliphs! Why is this? The answer is, that no English 
and Arabic Dictionary exists. Richardson's so called English, 
Persian, and Arabic Dictionary is a very good Persian Dic- 
tionary, but is so imperfect as an Arabic Dictionary^ that the 
most ordinary and essential Arabic words and phrases are 
entirely wanting; while, upon the other hand, it contains 
many words which are not Arabic and others which have 
become obsolete. To meet this deficiency, I have prepared 
this second part of my Dictionary in such a manner that 
learners of the Arabic will be able in a short time to speak and 
write the language perfectly well, — results not to be expected 



VI PREFACE. 

irom every English and Arabic Dictionary ; and I feel confident 
that, whether the traveller proceeds to Syria or Egypt, to 
Mesopotamia or Arabia, a careful study of this Dictionary 
will ensure his being understood with the same facility on 
the banks of the Nile and the Orontes as upon the borders 
of the Jordan and the Euphrates.^ 

I may also state that I have prepared the materials for 
a more extensive English and Arabic Dictionary, based upon 
the best and most comprehensive English Dictionaries, and, 
like them, containing every English word, with an infinite 
number of English sentences rendered into the purest and 
most elegant Arabic, but without the Arabic pronunciation. 
This work is ready for the press.

^ I have given to some of the words in this book the vulgar Syrian pronaBaip 
lion, which, although defective, is, nevertheless, in use ; as narf for nuf^ Um for 
sanl^ thereb for shariba^ etc. etc. It is also necessary that I Bhould inform tk 
learner that in Egypt and Arabia > is pronounced like ^ in give. 



INTRODUCTION. 

The following examples of translations will shew to the 

learner that he can with the aid of this Dictionary translate 

readily into Arabic. 

I. 

Glory be to Qod on high, and on earth peace, good will towards 
men. We praise thee, we bless thee, we worship thee, we glorify thee, 
we give thanks to thee for thy great glory, Lord God, Heavenly 
King, God the Father Almighty.

Most honored Wezir, — Mr. Smith, an English merchant residing in 
this town, has presented a petition to the Chancery of this General 
Consulate stating that Mr. So-and-so, an Ottoman subject, is his 
debtor for the sum of £100, being the price of a bale of manufactmx^d 
goods which he bought from him ; and that, although this sum has been 
due for several days, his debtor eludes payment under various pretexts. 
Since Mr. Smith is right in his claim, and he cannot wait any longer 
for his money, your Excellency is requested to give the necessary orders 
for the prompt payment of the above sum, and to receive, etc. etc.

IV. 

Since the receipt of your letter of the 15th of September respecting 
the affair of the cloth, nothing has occurred to render it necessary for me 
to trouble you. In this letter you will find a Bill of Exchange for the 
sum of £ 1000 on Mr. So-and-so of London, at three months date, to my 
account. Please to send mo by the first steamer 800 pieces of T. doth, 
24 yards 81b. 222, 100 barrels of sugar, 100 cases of indigo, and 20 bags 
of cochineal, of the first quality ; and please to insure them against 
all risks and dangers. I shall soon send you 100 bales of cotton, and 
500 bales of washed white wool for my account.

sentence he pleases, and translate it by himself.

(Jlx^L*^, compiled in the tenth 

century by Abulfaraj Ali, of Ispahan. 
He presented it to Seifn' d'dowla, 
Sultan of Syria, who ordered him in 
return 1000 dinars (near 500/.)» hat the 
minister of this prince, Ebn £bad, con- 
sidering the recompense as too inade- 
quate to the labour of fifty years, which 
Abulfaraj had employed in the work, 
gave him 1000 more. This vizier car- 
ried it with him in all his expeditions ; 
and it was much in request among the 
great men of the East, copies of it being 
generally sold at Baghdad for 4000
