PHILADELPHIA P. BLAKISTON'S SON & CO. 1012 WALNUT STREET Copyright, 1921, by P. Blakiston's Son & Co. TSK Maple phbbb tokk fa PREFACE The wealth of scientific information which French medicine has to offer can properly be grasped by those who are able to be in constant touch with the literature in its original language. The monumental work of the in- dividual investigators in each chosen specialty is overwhelming by its pro- found erudition. The accumulated data during the recent war prove amply that the power of observation in its accuracy and precision as revealed by French scientists deserves special attention. To those who are willing to follow up closely the progress in French medicine in the original writings the present Dictionary is offered. Moreover, those who since the cessation of hostilities have decided to continue the study of the language will find in the Dictionary a means of learning its proper pronunciation. Each French word is accompanied by a combination of letters in English giving the pro- nunciation as accurately as possible. On a separate page a key for the latter is added and should be consulted frequently. Finally on the last page a table is presented showing measurements in the metric system corresponding to that used in United States. Alfred Gordon.

Same as "eu." i should be pronounced as English "e" but the sound must be soft and prolonged. It is designated as "ee" (like "ea" in "teamster"). is designated as "oh" like in the English exclamation: oh! u is pronounced like the English "u," but the pouting of the lips must be very much less marked. eille is designated as "ay." That means that the letter "a." of the "ay" should be pronounced like "a" in "table" but more prolonged and soft. y is designated as English "ee" and pronounced like French "e" (see above). en is designated as "ahn." It should be pronounced like the French "a" (see above), but prolonged and soon abandoned with a nasal intonation. The "n" of the "ahn" should not be distinct. But in "enn" there should be no nasal intonation and both n's must be distinctly pronounced. c before "e" or "i" must be pronounced like "s." lion is designated as "ssion;" in which the "i" is pronounced like a very soft English "e" and very rapidly joined to "on." The "n" should be given a nasal intonation but not a distinct English "n." g before the vowels "e" and "i" is to be pronounced as "zsh." j the same as "g." ou is to be pronounced as English "oo" in the word "smooth." oi is to be pronounced as English "ooah" but rapidly. eui is designated as "ehy" in which the "eh" is pronounced as above (see "eu") and the "y" is added only to render the "eh" soft and prolonged but it should not be pronounced like an English "y."i at is designated as "eh" (see above for the latter). OMJ is designated as "ooy." The "y" should not be pronounced like English "y." It is added only to render the "oo" sound prolonged and especially "soft." illo is designated as "eeyoh."
