Book excerpt: Excerpt from An English-Japanese Dictionary of the Spoken Language During the quarter of a century which has elapsed since the issue of the last edition of this Dictionary the vocabulary of the Japanese Spoken Language has been enriched by the addition of a. Very considerable body of fresh terms, technical and other. Some already existed in the literary language, others have been newly coined to meet the varied needs of New Japan but all, or nearly all, are Sinico - Japanese and as such have necessarily found their way into conver sational use through the medium of the Written Language, - the press, the platform, and the bar being largely instrumental in gaining them colloquial currency. The process of colloquialization, however, is not yet, perhaps never will be, complete, and educated Japanese, to whom alone such terms are fully intelligible, probably have the written character before their mind's eye while conversing. These considerations account for the only innovation in the present. Edition of this wolk calling for special remark here, - the insertion, namely, of Chinese characters wherever it appeared that their presence would add to the interest and general utility of this compilation, which, despite this new departure, remains, both in respect of vocabulary and grammatical forms, substantially a dictionary of the Spoken Language.
