Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of the English and German and German and English Languages; Adapted to the Present State of Literature, Science, Commerce and Arts; German and English, Vol. 2 of 2: Englisch-Deutsches Und Deutsch-Englisches Wörterbuch; Mit Besonderer Rücksicht Auf Den Gegenwärtigen Standpunkt Der Literatur Und Wissenschaft; Deutsch-Englisch The want of a german-english dictionary, adapted to the present state of Art, Science and Literature, had been generally felt and acknowledged long before the author of the present work had determined on the undertaking. The works of a Fliigel, Hilpert and Grieb have afforded the German student in his acquirement of the English language, considerable facilities, and the english-german dictionaries of these indefatigable labourers in the field of lexicography will and must always retain the. Commendation they so justly deserve. Had their german-english dictionaries been worked out in the same spirit, had they been carried out to an equal extent and had they comprehended with greater exactness the various branches of Art and Science, the compiler of the present publication would, in all probability, have been spared a task involving no inconsiderable labour. It has been the author's principal aim in completing this german-english part of his Lexicon, to supply the deficiencies complained of in the works of his predecessors. It has been the study of the best part of his life to furnish the student with a work embodying all the valuable results of German Iexicography. In every branch of Art and Science the very best authorities have been consulted and indefatigable pains taken to render the work in every respect a reliable guide, and as comprehensive and perfect, as the nature of the undertaking would admit of.
