Handbook of Modern Arabic

W. Newman Francis

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I distributed this handbill in many quarters, and re ceived several letters. One learned gentleman briefly replied that he could not see any use in my proposed change, - entirely ignoring the eleven uses which I had enumerated. Similar rebuffs came from other quarters. I suppose, therefore, I must count on nothing but Opposition from the learned, who seem to me dis posed much to underrate the difliculties which they have surmounted, or indisposed to smooth the way of learners. When the field of learning is infinite, it is with me a crime to increase difficulty. I do not write for the learned, but to aid the unlearned: hence I appeal to the latter alone - to those who have good sense, but no acquaintance with this particular language.
