Excerpt from An Alphabetic Dictionary of the Chinese Language in the Foochow Dialect A brief list of Additions is placed at the end of the dictionary proper, and in it are given some additional uses of characters, and a few Romanized words and phrases which do not appear in the hodr of the work. A table of Corrections is given at the close of the volume, in which the more important errors occurring in the dictionary have been noted: the errors not corrected in the table are thought to be of an unimportant character, and their appropriate correction is readily suggested by the connection in which they occur. In the Index of Characters, where brackets have been used, it will be noticed that fre quently the same character is repeated once or twice. In these instances the character has different tones which affect its meaning. The figures indicate where each form is found.
