A Practical Dictionary of the French and English Languages


Book Description

Excerpt from A Practical Dictionary of the French and English Languages: Composed From the French Dictionaries of the Academy, Boiste, Bescherelle, Etc., From the English Dictionaries of Johnson, Webster, Richardson, Etc. And From Technological and Scientific Dictionaries of Both Languages Mines and phrases in a dictionary are, beyond all doubt, a very great assist mee to the learner in composition and translation; and under this impression lharc introduced into this dictionary as many idioms and illustrative phrases ssspace would allow me. But it cannot be expected, that in a work of this size every idiom and phrase in use in both languages should be given. Hence, I have been careful to make a selection of those which are of the most familiar and daily use. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The English French Dictionary is a practical instrument to help both English and French learners of the other language to improve their language skills and clarify issues of orthography. It contains 27,000 word entries and expressions, many with multiple meanings.

Second, we added special vocabulary from secondary school content fields such as social sciences, physical sciences, biological sciences, mathematics, language arts etc. The result is a comprehensive list of English entries with French equivalents in all areas covered in school curricula.
