[ARABIC & ENGLISH VOCABULARY AND PHRASE BOOK].

The interpreter in the Arabic and English Languages, consisting of nouns, epithets (or adjectives), verbs & afterwards some compendious examples.Ca. 1830s. 4to (21.5 x 27 cm). With 2 folding tables, 17 lines to the page, written in red and black ink. Contemporary navy blue morocco, with the title lettered in gold on spine, marbled endpapers.

[6], 237, 238-266, [10] pp.A unique, handwritten vocabulary and phrasebook of English and Arabic from the first half of the 19th century. This meticulously prepared manuscript is written in the fashion of a printed book, opening with a title page and ending with an index of topics. It is divided into four main sections: nouns, adjectives, verbs, and example sentences. The vocabulary, especially in the nouns section, is arranged by subjects, which include such interesting headings as "Druggist", "Painter", "Merchant", "Cities", "the Bride's Paraphernalia", "Precious Jewels", "War", "The Church", "Clerical Vestments", "Ecclesiastical Degrees & Kinds of Sin", "Festivals", and "Monks, their prayers, and their dress". Presumably, the dictionary was created to help a traveller or merchant who may have had an association with the Church. The final section offers an interesting selection of phrases and sheds some light on the experience of foreign language learning in the early 19th century. The phrases are a mixture of sentences that would be useful in daily life and such as would be included to practice the words from the vocabulary. Examples include: "We roasted a lamb and ate the whole of it and drank wine with it"; "I descended from above with the youth, my enemy"; "I shot the bear in the water and he sank"; and "Why dost thou scratch thy head and spit in fire". As a cheat sheet for Arabic grammar, the author includes two folding tables of Arabic verb tenses and conjugations. Overall, a curious example of a 19th-century Arabic vocabulary and phrasebook.With a presentation note in English indicating it was a Christmas gift in 1881, presented by G. W. Bernard Esq. Binding and spine worn, some browning and staining throughout. Otherwise in good condition.

BANESS, Joshua Frederick.

Manual of Hindustání or the stranger's Indian interpreter; A practical and easy guide to Hindustání conversation.Calcutta, W. Newman & Co., 1890. 14 x 8,5 cm. With a woodcut tailpiece at the end of the work. Contemporary red pebble-grain cloth, with the title lettered in gold on the front board.

145, [1 blank] pp.The only-known copy of the second edition of an extremely rare pocket-sized manual for the Hindustani language, which was clearly meant for everyday use. The second edition appears to be more rare than the first (1886) and third (1894) editions, as we have not been able to find any other copies either on the market, in libraries or mentioned in reference works. A possible explanation for this is its size. Whereas the first edition was in octavo, this second edition is significantly smaller. As a result, it must have been much more practical, but also more prone to getting lost.After a very short introduction to the grammar, it delves into the most commonly used words and phrases, including the lines: "is the table-cloth clean?" and "arrange the curtains carefully". It also discusses the most respectful forms of address and the local currency. From its size to its contents: this work was intended for practical purposes and is a fascinating reflection of its time.With a large drawing on the front endpapers of flowers, an owner's inscription on the front pastedown, and an inscription on the first flyleaf, which appears to be a packing list in English. The binding shows some signs of wear, with a water stain on the upper part of the back board, the cloth has somewhat frayed along the edges of the boards, and the spine has discoloured. The leaves have somewhat browned. Otherwise in good condition.l This edition not in WorldCat; cf. BM, General catalogue, vol 2, p. 281-1073 (other ed.); Safadi, A., The colonial construction of Hindustani 1800-1947, 2012, pp. 1 and 38.
