PREFACE
THE dictionaries at present used by school-boys and others in this ountry give for the
most part meanings of English words in Roman Hindustani oTo understand the various diacri-
tical marks used in such dictionaries requires a considerable amount of
practical experience,
which hardly fair to expect from those for whom they are chiefly intended. This Dictionary
it is
gives meanings of English words in Hindustani expressed in Persian Character, and it is used to
meet the requirements of the school-going population in thelUnited Provinces of Agra and
Oudh, Hyderabad Punjab and t ner P rovinces, where the study of the English language is
;
prosecuted simultaneously with that of Urdu. European candidates for Civil and Military
Service in India, who are required to pass a High Standard Examination in Urdu, and all
foreigners, who may aspire to learn the correct sound of words i occurring in Hindustani, will
also find this book of reference of immense service to them.
In giving the
meanings of words the following system has been adopted. In the
first
place, the words have been defined in so framed as to give a

English, the definitions being full,
clear and correct
explanation of the various senses in which a word may at different times be
used. an idiomatic translation into Hindustani of the English definitions has been
Secondly,
given accuracy, precision and distinctness have throughout been the aim of the translator. An
;
appendix is given containing words and phrases from the Greek, Latin and other foreign
language, with English and Hindustani equivalents.
Acomplaint generally made by Indian Booksellers and Publishers of the present day is
that dictionaries do not sell, for the numberless glossaries, keys and commentaries issued by
school-masters and others leave nothing that a candidate may require for his examination unsaid,
a waste of time and
rendering the consultation of a dictionary an unproductive labour and
energy. But be a
if thisgrievance of booksellers and publishers, school-boys and school-
masters have their grievance as well. The small dictionaries consulted by school-boys in this
country for the most part give definitions consisting of single words, generally as difficult, as,
and sometimes even more difficult than those they seek to explain. Even when definitions, more
fully framed, are given, the grievance is not removed, for they are often expressed in words,
which assume Dn the part of the student a knowledge of words more difficult than they consult.
simple words have been used as much as possible to frame

In this Dictionary, definitions
which, it is
hoped, men of all classes will fin dit easy to understand.
The arrangement of words and their meanings is, indeed perfectly simple, the matter rich
and full, and the price at which it is published very low, so that it cannot fail to make .itself
acceptable to all. To make this book attractive to school-boys, for whom it is mainly intended,
the cloth cases in which the copies are bound up have been imported from England at con-
siderable cost. Thus it will be found that nothing has been spared to (make this undertaking
a thorough success.
An able and efficient staff was engaged to compile the Dictionary. But it owes its present
form to Munshi Dwarka Prasad of the Government High School, Allahabad under whose
superintendence the staff worked.

PREFACE
TO THE
NEW AND ENLARGED EDITION

The rapid sale of the first and subsequent Editions of the Student's Practical Dictionary
and its large demand from all parts of the country especially from H. H. the Nizam's
Dominions, furnish an abundant proof of the'exceptional favour it has found in the eyes of
those for whom it has intended. This has encouraged the publisher to bring out this
'New
and Revised Edition,' thoroughly revised, which is far superior to any of its predecessors.
One of the special features of this edition is the use of Antique Type in the printing of the
main words and it is hoped that this improvement will make the book far more valuable as a
book of reference than its predecessors had been. In order to reduce the bulk of the book,
the size has been changed to Double Crown Octavo to make it handy and easy of reference.
A large number of new words and idiomatic phrases, or verbal aggregates with their explana-
tions in English and Urdu, has been added
to the main words with which they are respectively
connected, and copious synonyms have also been grouped under many words requiring them
throughout the book. The meanings, both in English and Urdu, have also been materially
improved, and no pains have been spared to make the New and Revised Edition of the
Dictionary more useful than its predecessors to the students in particular and for all other
practical purposes in general.
