INTRODUCTION.

The Amoy one of four principal dialects which, with


dialect is
their varieties, arespoken by at least seven millions of people. These
dialects, viz: the Chang-chow, the Chin-chew, the Tung-an, and the
Amoy, extend to about one hundred miles North, West, and South
of Amoy.
Of the four dialects, the numbers that speak the Amoy are the
fewest, and yet it is the most generally understood of them all. It
is characterized by great distinctness and simplicity of sounds. The
consequence is, that a man speaking it can be better understood when
travelling through the Chang»chow and Chin-chew Prefectures than
those who speak the others. The knowledge of the Amoy dialect, there-
fore, enables the student to communicate with a large population, as he
will easily learn the few rules which will assist him in mastering the
distinguishing differences that mark the various dialects.

Orthography arid pronounciafion

A. — Is pronounced as a in la."

Chh.^This spelling represents an aspirated ch, and elsewhere


is generally written ch'.

E.—As e in grey, and in combination with a consonant as e in

men
G. — As g in get. It is always hard.
H. — As English.
in It is never silent excepting where it is a
final.

I.— As pique. When used with a consonant as


i in i in him.
J.— As jug. Sometimes has the sound of
in it dz. For exam-
ple, JPI jun, tough pronounced
is though written as dzfln.

K. — as keep.
in
IV. INTEODUCTION.

Kh, — This represents an aspirated and would have been


k, bet-

ter written k'.

L. — As English.
in sometimes approaches the sound of
It d.

M. —As English.
in M a word of and
is expressed by
itself, is

compressing the lips, and giving the sound that it has in the inital
sound of man.

N. As in English.

Ng. Either as an initial or a final, this has the sound of ng in
sing.
O. — As o in when followed by a consonant as o in sock.
so,

O'.—As aw saw. in
P. — As English.
in

Ph. — an aspirated
Is would have been better written P'
p. It
It never has the sound of ph in seraph.
S.—always as s in sit.

T. — as English.
in

Th. — This an aspirated


is T, and never pronounced as th in
them. It would have better been written T' but I wished to be in har-
mony with Dr. Douglas.
Ts. —As Dr. Douglas uses this spelling before the
ts in its.
and u, and ch before the letters e and i. I have discarded
letters a, o,
the ch and used only the ts, as the use of the two forms is likely to
puzzle the beginner.
U.— As u in rule. When united with a consonant it has a
sound very much like the o in rote. For example, in ^^° piit, an idol,
the u is sounded more like the o in rote than the u in
cut.

Dipthongs.

Ai.—As ie in fie.

Au. —As ow in cow.


la.—Both have their own individual sounds
letters
when uttered
very slowly. When spoken as in ordinary conversation, the
accent is
thrown on the a and the i approximates to the
sound of y. For
example, ^
i^m, salt, might also be written
jkm.
lau.— lo — lu, the same rule applies to these as to
ia.
INTRODUCTION, r.

Oa.-^the accent is on a o is so short that it might be written


;

w. Some indeed have spelt the words hoan, hoa, as hwan, hwa.

Nasals.

The small letter " at the close of a word, means that the whole
word is have a nasal sound. Words beginning with
to and n, being m
naturally nasal, h-Bve sometimes the letter affixed to them and some-
°

time not.

Tones.

One of the greatest difficulties that meet, the student in his


study of Chinese is and yet without a. thorough knqwledge
the tones ;

and mastery of them, there can be no correct speaking of the language.


This is especially true of the Southern dialects of China, where the
tones are numerous and most pronounced in their character. Let no
student imagine that he can hope to evade learning them, or that he
can without study manage to make himself understood. word is A
spoken at random in English in any tone one likes to pitch itj audit
will be understood. Not so in Chinese. If a man says Jt°kau, a mon-
key, when he means to say ::Jii° kdu, a dog, the Chinese will never
dream that he ever intended any other word than monkey. These
tones are by no means insuperable. A man with a genius for hard
work will learn the simple tones thoroughly in a month, and the changes
in them that take place in combination will be gradually mastered by
practice.
According to the Chinese theory there are four classes of tones,
viz the ±° 2|i° tsiu" pi^", the ±° m° tsiu" sia^ the ±° *° tsiu^khi, and
the±° Atsiu°jip.
These are divided into an upper and a lower series, makmg m
all eight tones.
as the
In the Amoy dialect, there are really only seven tones
tsiu" sia° has no lower series. The lower series consists of the T° 31°
e pia°; T° *° e khi, and T° e jip. A
I shall not attempt to describe

as I consider it impossible to give even an


approximate
these tones,
idea of their sounds on paper. These tones must be learned from the
living voice, and no possible atnount of description of them will Com-
pensate for the loss of this.
^n. INTRODTJCTIOK.

I shall now give examples of the tones together with the tonal
marks used in this dictionary.

tsiu pii", tsiu" sia", tsiu" khi, tsiu" jip.


Upper series, to, td, to, toh.
e pia,°', e khi, e jip.
Lower series, t6, to, t6h.

A simpler method is sometimes used viz.

1st 2nd 3rd 4th.


Upper series, to, t6, tb, toh.
5th 6th 7th 8th.
Lower series' t6, to, t5, t6h.

The first and the fourth have no tonal marks. The fourth and
eighth tones are distinguished by always ending in h, k, p, or t.

Whilst the seven tones are exceedingly marked and decided


whein spoken undividually, they ea;ch undergo a change when placed
in combination. For example, M° tsAn, a boat, is in the fifth tone.
When however combined with th^u, a head, viz, ^° M° tsAn th^u,
it is

the word tsAn is pronounced as though it were in the third.


The following are the changes that take place in the various
tones by combination.
The first becomes the third.
The second becomes the first.
The third becomes the second.
The fourth becomes the eighth.
The fifth becomes the third.
The seventh becomes the third.
The eighth becomes the fourth.
In addition to the change of tone produced by combination,
there are times when a word loses its tone entirely by becoming en-
clitic. Diminutives, pronouns, certain adjectives, adverbs and verbs
frequently become enclitic. For example in the words ho-d,
khoa°-ki" -
16h-mi, podh-16h-khi, skngg6a, k, ki". Mi, I6h-khi, g6a, lose
their tones!'
The first word in each retains its own tone, even though in combina-
tion, because the succeeding words are treated as though
they had no
tones whatever.
INTRODUCTION. vn.

Great has been experienced in getting the proper


diflSeulty
Chinese characters to represent all the sounds used in this book. For
some there are no characters, and accordingly for these I have had to
go far afield, and borrow as I could. In some cases this has been to-
lerably satisfactory, and in others it has been quite the reverse. In
explanation of the small rings used with the Chinese characters, I may
say, that when a ° is attached to one it must be read with its colloquial
sound, but when there is no ° it retains its reading sound. When a
character has two means that a character of proper sound but
I it en-
tirely different meaning has been borrowed for the occasion.
In the preparation of this Dictionary I have been glad to take
advantage of every assistance that was possibly available. I am chiefly
indebted however to the following, viz. Eev. Dr. Douglas' Chinese
and English Dictionary of the Amoy Colloquial, Dr. Williams' Chinese
Dictionary, as well as his English and Chinese Vocabulary, Rev- J-
Doolittle's Vocabulary and Handbook of the Chinese language, and an
English and Chinese Dictionray by Tam Tat Hin. I desire heartily

to acknowledge my
obligations to these authors for the assistance they
have rendered to me in many ways. To Dr. WUliams special thanks
are due, as several articles in my dictionary have been copied from his.

CHINESE WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.
Chinese "Weights and Measures.

to twenty grains, the pint to twenty ounces, and the gallon to
one hundred and sixty ounces. These measures are unknown
to the Chinese.

Avoirdupoise Weight.
The catty a third more than the English pound. In buying and
is

selling,two kinds of steelyards -are used viz the W j^®" pah Mk


t6, and the "g" Eg°i^° pah si t6. The former makes the catty
two ounces heavier than the latter, and is used in Amoy when
purchasing taro, oysters, and all kinds of Vegetables. In the
. weighing of other articles, the pah si t& steelyard is generally
used. Outside of Amoy the country people prefer to use the
W° 5^° 11° pah Mk t6 steelyard.

The ^ i@ yz.° L(S*-pan ehhioh or the foot rule formerly invented by
L6'-pan is used by carpenters, masons, &c., throughout the
empire. It is equal to 11| English inches. Another measure
invented by him and called the ^&
X° Bun kong ehhioh is also
used by the above classes of workmen. It is equal to about a foot
and a half Chinese measure. There is a good deal of superstition
connected with its use. The tailor's foot measure contains 12|
English inches. -It varies in length in different parts of China.

Time.
The Chinese year nominally consists of three hundred and sixty days.
As the Chinese months sometimes have thirty and sometimes
only twenty nine days it has really not so many. To make up
for the loss of time, two years in every five have intercallary
months inserted in them.

Measure of Capacity.
The Chinese rice sellers have two tsin measures, one contains 1 5 oz-
arid the other 14 oz.If the customer is a shrewd business
man, they will use the former in measuring out his rice, and
if not, the latter. The fact is, in nearly all the business tranS''
actions of the Chinese, whatever
may be the standard weight or
measure, they will almost invariably succeed in giving less
weight or measure, unless the person buying
is on his guard
against being cheated. =•
