The book pages were scanned and converted to EPUB format automatically. This process relies on optical character recognition, and is somewhat susceptible to errors. The book may not offer the correct reading sequence, and there may be weird characters, non-words, and incorrect guesses at structure.

The hidden page numbering which may be available to your ereader corresponds to the numbered pages in the print edition, but is not an exact match; page numbers will increment at the same rate as the corresponding print edition, but we may have started numbering before the print book's visible page numbers.

FOREWORD In compiling this commercial dictionary, the aim has been to include all the words and expressions which are generally used in commerce, excluding those which do not come under this category. That the work is thoroughly up to date will be readily seen by reference to such words as " wireless telegraphy, Marconigram, aeroplane, typist, taxi-cab, underground railway, etc.," which are not to be found in most Spanish-Enghsh dictionaries pubhshed hitherto. Many difficulties have been encountered in the preparation of this work, and the greatest of these was that constituted by words of doubtful etymology, or words borrowed from other languages. Some words are used in commerce, particularly with the Spanish Americas, which are not recognised by the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy. If such words were excluded entirely from a commercial dictionary, this would lose much of its practical utihty and value as a reference. Moreover, it frequently happens that words which are first introduced by commercial men are admitted into the language in course of time. In the present work it has been deemed expedient to include many such important words ; and in cases where they are purely local, or South-American, a note to that effect has been given. Like ourselves, the Spaniards employ many words which they have borrowed or adapted from the French, such as : garage, chauffeur, bon marché, debut, buffet, grippe, etc. ; and many others relating to articles of dress, such as crepe (Spanish version : crepe), moire, etc. From the Enghsh language the Spaniards have also borrowed many words, such as " bar (in a pubhc-house), club, detective, inch, jersey, sweater (garment), lock-out (in trade disputes), etc., record, reporter, trust (an industrial combine), hall, arrowroot, etc., etc." They have, of course, their own versions of many of these words (e.g., bufete, bar ; círculo or equipo, club ; pulgada, inch ; salón, hall ; etc.). There are also certain coined or

vi FOREWORD adapted versions of English words, such as boicotar (or boicotear), to boycott ; interviú, interview ; interviuvar, to interview ; mitin, meeting ; etc. The EngUsh word " stock " is extensively used by Spaniards in commerce, and is sometimes spelt stok ; but their own word existencia is more general. Many of these adapted words are included in the present work and, in most cases, are italicised to show that they are not recognised Spanish words. Spanish spelling offers little difficulty as a rule, but attention might be called to words beginning with the preñxes : trans, ob and sub. The " n" of trans, and the " b" of ob and sub, are often dropped, and thus one may write transporte or trasporte, obscuro or oscuro, subscribir or suscribir ; etc. There is likewise some confusion between the prefixes " ex " and " es," and one often meets with estraño for extraño, estranjero for extranjero, etc. The use of the dash and brackets may be briefly explained. The dash represents the key- word, or the word in heavy type, and means : " repeat." The brackets are used in some instances to contain the preposition which is required by a certain verb or adverb ; in other cases they contain an alternative or additional rendering ; and sometimes they contain words explanatory to the type.

SPANISH DICTIONARY IRREGULAR VERBS. The irregularities of Spanish verbs are for the most part in the Present Indicative and the Past Definite tenses, and the tenses derived from these, viz. : From Present Indicative : — Present Subjunctive and Imperative. ,, Past Definite : — Imperfect, Future, and Conditional of the Subjunctive. For both Regular and Irregular verbs it is a simple matter to ascertain the Subjunctive tenses, once the Present Indicative and the Past Definite are known. The Present Subjunctive is formed as follows, with a few exceptions. Change the final " o " of the 1st person of the Present Indicative to " e " for the 1st Conjugation, and to " a " for the 2nd and 3rd Conjugations, thus : Compro, I buy. Pres. Subj. (que) compre. Temo, I fear. ,, ,, (que) tema. Parto, I divide. ,, ,, (que) parta. This gives the 1st person singular of the Present Subjunctive. The other persons are formed by adding the following terminations : s for the 2nd person singular ; mos for the 1st person plural ; is for the 2nd person plural ; n for the 3rd person plural. The 3rd person singular is the same as the 1st person singular. In the following tables of Irregular Verbs the Present Subjunctive is only given when it is not formed according to this rule. A study of the preceding table of Regular Verbs, also of the Irregular Verbs, will show that, for all the tenses of the Subjunctive, and most of the tenses of the Indicative, once the '1st person singular is known, the following letters are added for the other persons : 1st person 2nd „ singular — s 3rd „ ,, — 1st 2nd „ plural — mos — is 3rd „ ,^ — n The Imperfect, Future, and Conditional of the Subjunctive are formed from the Past Definite, for all verbs whether Regular or Irregular, in the following manner. Take the 3rd person plural of the Past Definite, say " Partieron." Suppress the final letters " ron " and substitute the following : se for the Imperfect Subjunctive, i.e., Partie se ; re ,, ,, Future ,, ,, Partie re ; ra ,, ,, Conditional ,, ,, Partie ra. Thus we get the 1st person singular, and the other persons are formed by the additions mentioned in the preceding paragraph. These tenses will, therefore, not be given in the table of Irregular Verbs, which follows. 615

SPANISH DICTIONARY Imperfect. All Spanish verbs are regular in the Imperfect of the Indicative, except : Ser, to be ; Ir, to go ; and Ver, to see ; also their derivatives, such as : Prever, etc. Consequently, the Imperfect will not be mentioned in the following tables, except for the three verbs indicated. Future and Conditional. For all Spanish verbs, regular or irregular, the Future and Conditional of the Indicative are formed by adding the following terminations to the Infinitive : Future. Conditional. é ía as ías a la emos iamos éis iais án ian Exceptions. aere are twelve exceptions to the above rule (apart from derivati\ h are : Caber, to be contained, which drops the e, viz. : Cabré, etc. Decir, to say. ,. ec, ,, Diré, etc. Haber, to have. ,, e, ,, Habré, etc. Hacer, to make. ,, ce, ,, Haré, etc. Poder, to be able. ,. e, Podré, etc. Poner, to put. substitutes d, ,, Pondré, etc. Querer, to wish, , drops the e, Querré, etc. Saber, to know, ,, e. Sabré, etc. SaUr, to go out. , substitutes d. Saldré, etc. Tener, to have. d. ., Tendré, etc. Valer, to be worth. d, „ Valdré, etc. Venir, to come. d. „ Vendré, etc In the following tables, the Future and Conditional of the Indicative will, therefore, only be given for the above exceptions. Participles. The following is the list of verbs, which have an irregular past participle : Abrir, abierto ; Cubrir, cubierto (also derivatives, descubrir, etc.) ; Escribir, escrito ( ,, ,, describir, etc.) ; Exprimir, expreso ; Decir, dicho (also derivatives, predecir, etc.) ; Hacer, hecho ; Imprimir, impreso ; Morir, muerto ; Poner, puesto (also derivatives, reponer, etc.) ; Romper, roto ; Ver, visto (also derivatives, prever, etc.) ; Volver, vuelto. 616

SPANISH DICTIONARY Also all verbs which terminate in " olver," as: Absolver, absuelto ; Resolver, resuelto, etc. The Present Participle is irregular in the following verbs : Decir, diciendo ; Pedir, pidiendo ; Reñir, riñendo ; and several others. The participles are, therefore, only mentioned when irregular in the table of Irregular Verbs. Imperative. This is always the same as the Present Subjunctive, for the 3rd persons singular and plural, and as these are the forms used with " usted " and " ustedes," the Imperative is not given in the table of Irregular Verbs. EUPHONIC CHANGES. 1 . Verbs which end in car change the c into qu, when the first letter of the termination is e. 2. Verbs which end in cer change the c into ^\ J- •■ '• " "'' '■ ■' ^ " ■^. When the first letter 'i- •• " '• S^^ " " " •• l\ of the termination 5. „ „ „ gir_ ., -. ? .. 7 1 is 0 or a. 6. ,, ,, ,, quir ,, ,, qu ,, c\ 7. ,, ,, ,, gmV drop ,, u ) 8. ,, ,, ,, gar a.áá u i When the first letter of 9. ,, ,, ,, arar change ,, z ,, c' the termination is e. 10. ,, ,, ,, Wi> and wz> drop the í ) When the first letter f of the termination is i. VOWEL CHANGES. The majority of Spanish irregular verbs, apart from those mentioned under the heading of Euphonic Changes, undergo a vowel change in the singular of the Present Indicative, and the 3rd person of the plural, as : Acordar, to remind. Acuerdo acordamos acuerdas acordáis acuerda acuerdan Acertar, to guess. Acierto acertamos aciertas acertáis acierta aciertan N.B. — The 1st and 2nd persons of the plural are regular for almost all Spanish verbs. Car and Gar. — Verbs which end in " car " and " gar " are not considered irregular, and are therefore not included in the list of Irregular Verbs. These verbs take " qu " and " gu " respectively, as indicated in the table of Euphonic Changes, when followed by " e." Example : Toqué, I touched (from Tocar) ; Pagué, I paid (from Pagar). The Present Subjunctive of such verbs is : Toque, toques, etc. ; Pague, pagues, etc. 617 20 A — (1696)

Until recent years the monetary unit of Spain and her former colonies was the real de vellón, ^ which is equal to about 2|d. {2"45d.) in English money ; and 20 reales de vellón formed the duro or peso (which was the foundation of the United States' coinage). The French decimal system has, however, brought about the introduction of the new currency, based on the peseta (or franc), which is valued approximately at 9¿d. in English money, and is divdded into lOOths, or céntimos. líCthe Spanish-speaking American republics the peso or dollar is the principal unit, and this is valued at a figure ranging from 2^d. to 4s. 4d., according to the particular republic or place. Like the peseta, the peso is reckoned under the decimal sj^stem, and the centavo is the 100th part of a peso. The Spanish peseta contains 4 reales, or 100 céntimos, and the Spanish dollar (or duro) contains 5 pesetas, i.e., about 4s. The American dollar or peso contains 100 centavos, and the American peso contains 8 reales. The American dollar or peso varies considerably in value in the different Republics. In ChiU the peso is generally valued between 7d. and 9d. , in Mexico at about 2s., in the Argentine Republic at about Is. 9d. In Ecuador the coinage is based on the sucre, wluch is valued at 2s. In Panama the American gold dollar is in use, i.e., about 4s. 2d., and the balboa (or gold dollar) is current, value about 4s. In Salvador the peso is worth from Is. 8d. to Is. lOd., and in Costa Rica about Is. 8d., whereas in Nicaragua its worth ranges from 2^d. to 4d., and in Colombia the United States currency (or Enghsh gold) is in general use, 1 " Moneda de vellón." This was the name given to the old Spanish currency, and may be compared to the English expression " sterling." 642

SPANISH DICTIONARY In Peru the sol (silver) value about 2s. is in use, also the libra esterlina (or sovereign) and the media libra. In Bolivia the principal unit is the boliviano, value about Is. 7d. In Cuba the coinage of the United States has been adopted, the dollar being worth 4s. 2d., and the centavo about id. In Uruguay the dollar is worth about 4s. 3d., and is divided into centesimos, and in Venezuela the principal coin is the venezolano, worth about 4s. These particulars are merely given to show the approximate value of the coinage in English money, but as the current value of these moneys depends on the exchange, and is liable to fluctuate very much, they must not be accepted implicitly as the exact value. Needless to say, the Enghsh equivalents indicated above are, in most of the cases, much below the par value of the respective currencies. The actual equivalent of the various currencies can generally be ascertained from the money column of certain newspapers. SPANISH WEIGHTS AND MEASURES. WEIGHTS. For the most part the metric sj'stem has been adopted by the commercial parts of Spain and Spanish America, although the old Spanish weights are still used. The Spanish pound {libra castellana) is equal to about ] 014 lb. English, i.e., practically the same. There are 16 ounces (onzas) to the pound (libra), 25 libras to the quarter (arroba), 4 arrobas to the hundredweight (quintal), and 20 quintales to the ton (tonelada). 100 Spanish lbs. = 101-443 English lbs. 100 English lbs. = 98577 Spanish lbs. MEASURES. As in the case of weights, the metric system is largely used in commerce, but the old Spanish system is still used in Spain and America. The Spanish foot (pie castellano) measures 10 96 English inches. There are 12 inches (pulgadas) to the foot (pie), and 3 feet (pies) to the yard (vara). 100 Spanish yards = 91 318 English yards 100 English yards = 109-388 Spanish yards It is often said that, roughly, 35 varas equal 32 yards. Also, 100 varas are equal to 83| metres. N.B. — In selling textiles to Spanish and Spanish-American houses, the majority of houses in Great Britain sell by the English yard, which is translated by " yarda " and not " vara," as the " vara " is less. Dry Measure. The fanega contains 1,527 Imperial bushels. There are 4 cuartillos to the celemín, 12 celemines to the fanega, and 12 fanegas to the cahiz. 100 fanegas — 152-667 Imperial bushels 100 Imperial bushels = 65-502 fanegas 643

There are 4 copas to the cuartillo, 4 cuartillos to the azumbre, 2 azumbres to the cuartilla, and 4 cuartillas to the cántara. 100 cántaras = 355-20 Imperial gallons 100 Imperial gallons = 28-16 cántaras Tonelada Quintal Kilogramo Hectogramo Decagramo Gramo Kilómetro Hectómetro Decámetro Metro KilóUtro Hectolitro Decalitro Litro METRIC SYSTEM.
