Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Some Translations and Mistranslations in Dr. Williams Syllabic Dictionary of the Chinese Language During the the five years' interval which has elapsed since the publication of Dr. Williams' Syllabic Dictionary of the Chinese Language its merits and demerits have had every opportunity of being very fairly tested. The fatal mistake, committed upon the threshold, of introducing a new and complicated orthography, not only for Mandarin but even for the Peking dialect; the numerous etymological blunders exposed by Mr. Chalmers in Vol. IV of the China Review; Mr. Groeneveldt's scathing critique in Vol. III of the same periodical; and the frequent inaccuracies both of sound and tone pointed out by an anonymous writer in twelve columns of the China Mail, - have all combined to show that Dr. William's dictionary, though in many ways an improvement upon its predecessors, is still unlikely to hold the fort for any indefinitely long period. It is indeed already felt by many that something more systematic in arrangement and more accurate in detail is wanted to meet the present extension of Chinese studies over a daily increasing area; and the following pages are intended to aid in establishing more widely this conviction, dealing as they do with the translations of a large number of entries, the greater or less erroneousness of which has hitherto been left unnoticed. These entries have not, however, been searched out for this purpose, but are simply such as have come under observation within the past eighteen months; neither does the list, unfortunately for the sake of this dictionary, pretend to be exhaustive, as may be readily proved by the student who will take the trouble to run carefully through almost any page of Dr. Williams' work.
