Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Grammar of the Arabic Language: Intended More Especially for the Use of Young Men Preparing for the East India Civil Service; And Also for the Use of Self-Instructing Students in General
Vernaculars, so as to render them competent vehicles of European science and literature to the great mass of the Muhammadan population throughout British India; under all the above, and various other points of view, Arabic may be said to be an object of deep and peculiar interest. In conclusion, I have to acknowledge my deep obligations to my friends, Professor Francis Johnson, late of Haileybury College, Herts; and Dr. Charles Rieu, of the British Mu seum, Professor of Arabic in University College, London. The kindness shewn to me by these gentlemen in perusing and correcting the sheets of this work as they passed through.
