PREFACE
The present work is the response to a demand (not at all anticipated) for a French companion to the author's " German-English Dictionary for Chemists." It follows the plan of the earlier book, which seems to have met with general favor.
Prof. F. W. Tanner of the University of Illinois has read the galley proof and added a nimiber of biological terms, and Prof. Frank Vogel of the Mafisachusetts Institute of Technology has read the page proofs and the manuscript of the Intro- duction and has also contributed the general statement prefacing the ** Conju- gation of French Verbs." The author is likewise under obligation to Prof. C. W. Foulk, Mr. E. J. Crane and Dr. Maurice L. Dolt, and to numerous other friends who have given opinions or answered queries.
Reference works chiefly consulted: Generaly Clifton-Grimaux-McLaughlin, French-English Dictionary; the Larousse dictionaries, especially the latest, " Larousse pour tous." TechniccHf Répertoire technologique des noms d'indus- tries et de professions (by French Government officials) ; Willcox, French-English Military Technical Dictionary; De Méric, Dictionnaire des termes de médecine. The material has been rather scattered, consequently a large proportion has been obtained by the reading of books, catalogs and journals.
A really good dictionary is a growth. No one can realize as well as the author how incomplete the vocabulary of this one still is. The very helpful corre- spondence regarding errors and omissions in the German-English dictionary leads to the hope that readers will go to the same trouble in this case.

INTRODUCTION
Thanks to the many words which French and English have in common and to the wonderful clarity of French expression, the beginner usually finds it easier to learn to read French than German, especially if he has studied Latin to some account. Separable prefixes, involved sentence order and a certain weU known " longwordformingtendency " are not there to trouble him. Chemi- cal names do not present great difficulty. Nevertheless there are pitfalls, such as the numerous idiomatic phrases, the irregular verb forms and the words which, tho posing as old friends, do not mean just what they ought to! These matters the author has tried to keep in mind in the preparation of the dictionary. The following notes may be of assistance in the use of the vocabulary.
Phrases. A large number of phrases has been included. As a rule, a phrase is entered under the first important word which occurs in it, preposi- tions, conjunctions and articles being passed by {en détail imder détaU, tout d*un coup under touty etc.).
Verbs. Conjugations of typical regular verbs have been placed at the end of the Introduction in the hope that this may save references to a grammar. Irregular verb forms which are likely to appear in scientific literature are given where they are most needed, i.e., in the vocabulary imder their own spellings, and not safely concealed under the parent verb.
General Words. A general vocabulary superior to that of many pocket dictionaries is included with the technical words. The special chemical mean- ing of a general word is ordinarily placed first.
Words Common to French and English. Words of the same or nearly the same spelling in the two languages are defined even when the meaning is exactly the same as in English. Manifestly, these words are only a selection from among those which might have been included. Especially is this true of the names of chemical compounds.
DerlYed Words. As a space-saving device the meanings of many words are merely indicated, reference being made to another word which is fully defined. For example, several senses of the verb brasser (to stir) are given. A listing of all the corresponding meanings of the noun brassage is avoided by using for the latter word the form '^ stirring, etc. (see brasser)." Participles and participial adjectives are often treated in the same way.
Feminine Forms. These are not given except in special cases. The usual sign of the feminine is the letter e\ thus, gris (gray) becomes grise in the femi-
▼ii

jM introduction
nine singular, while netUre (neutral) which ends in e in the masculine form remains unchanged in the feminine. The following irregularities should be noted:
-▼e (fern.) corresponding to -f (masc); as, actif y active,
-se " " -x; as, nitreux, nitreuae,
-se " " -r; as, trompeur^ trompeuse,
-che '' " -c; as, hlancy blanche,
-que " " -c; as, iurcj turque,
-gue " " -g; as, hngy longue,
-trice " " -teup; as, indicateur, indicatrice.
Doubling of the final consonant; as, gros, grosse.
Plural Forms. The regular formation of the plural is by addition of 8 U; the singular. Departures from this rule are:
-aux (pi.) corresponding to -al, -aU or -au (sing.); as, égal, égaux, -eaux ** ** -eau; as, nouveau, nouveaux,
-eux " " -eu; sa, feu, feux,
-oux " " -ou; as, caiUou, cailloux.
Nouns ending in -8, -x and -z and masculine adjectives ending in s and -x in the singular are unchanged in the plural.
Nouns Used as Adjectives. French differs from English in its adjectival use of nouns. In some instances the use is the same; as, odeur ether, ether odor; solution lilas, lilac solution. For the most part, however, French nouns used as adjectives might be construed as in apposition; as, chimiste ingénieur, chemical engineer; tube séparateur, separating tube. On the other hand such English expressions as " sodium chloride " (chlorure de sodium) and "gun steel " (jocier à canon) require the use of a preposition when rendered into French.
Inorganic Nomenclature. Most inorganic names are readily translated from French into English as soon as one learns that -ure corresponds to the English -dde; -dque to -ic; and -eux (fem. -euse) to -ou^.
Names of hydracids differ in construction from the English names; as, chlorhydrique, hydrochloric.
Names of salts containing the preposition de should not invariably be trans- lated by using **of." For example, while acétaJte de cuivre is correctly trans- lated " acetate of copper '* the form *' copper acetate " is more frequent.
Apparently, the older fashion of naming salts from the bases instead of the metals (as carbonate ^e soude, carbonate of soda) is more persistent in French than in English, hence in many cases it would be well to use the modern form (in this case, sodium carbonate) in translating them.
Organic Nomenclature. The use of adjectives in French organic names, instead of a combining form as in English and German, may be noted; thus
Digitized by
ORGANIC TERMS H
the compound CeHiCls (dichlorobenzene) is often called benzène (or bengine) dichlaréf although dicMorobemene and even the Germanism dichlorbemol also occur.
Names of esters are foimd in which the name of the alcohol radical is pre- fixed to the name of the acid; as, ether amylacétique. This should be rendered "amyl acetate" rather than **amylacetic ester" or '*amylacetic ether" if the oompoimd CHsCOaCsHn is meant, and other cases should be treated similarly.
Words ending in -dgue are used in a general descriptive sense more frequently than the corresponding English words in -ic; berbérinique, for instance, would be properly translated "berberinic " if designating an acid, but it often means simply "of berberine " or **berberine "; as, ada berbériniqueSy berberine salts.
German names ending in -dnsaure may usually be translated into French and English in two ways, that is, as acide -dnique (-inic acid) or as acide -dque (-ic acid); and it sometimes happens that the one alternative is chosen in French, the other in English. For example the compound named Levulinsaure is usually called levulinic acid in English while in French the form adde Uvuiique seems to be the more conmion. Such differences are not numerous.
In order to have names which are in accord with the usage of the American Chemical Society as embodied in the '' Directions to Abstractors *^ the follow- ing rules (which also harmonize well with the best usage in Great Britain) should be observed. They are not necessarily to be applied to names of phar- maceuticals and dyes, and possibly some exceptions should be allowed for commercial use only, as glycerin instead of glycerol. Differences between trade and scientific usage are always to be regretted.
(1) Translate oxy- by hydroxy- when it designates hydroxyl, as is commonly the case in organic names. When oxy- designates the ketonic group (CO) it is preferably translated keio-.
(2) Translate names of compoimds the chief function of which is alcoholic or phenolic so that the name ends in -ol] as. glycerol, resorcinol, mannitol, pinacol (not pinacone).
(3) When the French ending -oZ does not indicate hydroxyl it should be translated -die (as, anisole, indole), or in the case of a few hydrocarbons -ene (as benzol, benzene; toluol, toluene; styroly st3rrene).
(4) The ending -dne or -in should be translated -dne in the case of basic sub- stances imd -in elsewhere; as, aniline, glycine, palmitin, albmnin. Exceptions are benzine (meaning benzene) and the names of alcohols and phenols (see (2)).
(6) The form amido- should be so translated only when it denotes combina- tion with an acid group. Usually it is to be translated amino-; as, acide amir dopropionique, aminopropionic acid; amidophénol, aminophenol. The same holds for imido-, aniUdo-, etc.
(6) In such combining forms as bromo-, cyano-, chloro-, nitro-, etc., when they denote substituting radicals, the connective o is to be used invariably; as
uigiiizea Dy vjv^\_/n: iv
% INTRODUCTION
chlorabenzène or efdarbemhie, chlorobenzene; acide chlaraeétique, chloroaoetic add. This usage is by no means universal, but those who cannot reconcile themselves to such spellings as '' bromoacetic '' should at least avoid the German forms bromphenol, acetphenetidine, etc., by using the connective o before consonants. (French literature does not contain so many of these objectionable forms as does the German.)
(7) The French ending -ane should be translated -an^ if it is the name of a hydrocarbon (or parent heterocyclic compound) which iafvUy mturated; other- wise, -an. Examples: methane, menthane, tolan, furan, pentosan.
(8) Names of acids ending in -carbonique are translated 'Carboxylic, not -carbonic.
CONJUGATION OF FRENCH VERBS
1. General Statement
(By Professor Frank Vogel)
In general the tenses of all regular verbs and of most irregular verbs can be formed or recognized from the five principal parts, viz.: (1) present infinitive, (2) present participle, (3) past participle, (4) present indicative, (5) past definite indicative.
(1) From the present infinitive, by adding directly -ai, -cm, -a, -ans, -ez, -ont, the future indicative is formed. Likewise by adding -aie, -ais, -ait, -done, -iez, -aient the conditional present is obtained, but infinitives in -re alwa3rs drop the -e.
(2) From the present participle, by changing -ant into -aiSy -ais, -ait, -ions, •ieZy -aient y we obtain the imperfect indicative; and by changing -ant into -e, -esy -Cy -ions, -iezy -ent we obtain the present subjunctive.
(3) The past participle with the auxiliary avoir for all transitive verbs (but with être for intransitives denoting motion, change of condition or position, and for reflexives) forms the compoimd tenses in the active voice. However, with the past participle and the required tense form of être the tenses of the passive voice are formed.
(4) The present indicative gives the imperative by dropping the4)ronoun of the second person singular and of the first and second person plural, also final 8 of the second person singular in the first (-er) conjugation is dropped except when followed by the pronouns -y or -en.
(5) The past definite gives the imperfect subjimctive by changing the first person singular final i or « to -saCy saesy -*ty ssionsy -esiezy seent. Note that the third person singular alwa3rs has a circumflex (^) accent over the vowel (a, i, u) before the t.

4. Reflexive Verbs
In the simple tenses, reflexive verbs are conjugated like the corresponding active forms, but with the use of the pronouns me, te, se, nous, vous, se (as the person and number may be). In the compoimd tenses, in addition to the use of the above pronouns the auxiliary être (instead of avoir as in the active forms) is employed; thus, lover (active), se Uwer (reflexive); avoir Uwé (active), s^&re Uwé (reflexive).

CONJUGATION OF FRENCH VERBS xvii
Reflexive verbs are translated:
(1) Reflexively; as, se lover, to wash oneself.
(2) Reciprocally; as, se laver , to wash each other or one another. (The
above two meanings are not usually given in the vocabulary.)
(3) Passively; as, se publier , to be published. (This meaning is often
given, especially when it is a customary one.)
(4) Intransitively; as, Vor se fond, the gold melts, gold melts. (Such
meanings have been included as far as possible.)
The following inflections must serve as examples for the reflexive verbs:
Present Indicative Perfect Indicative
je me lave, I wash myself, I wash je me suis lavé, I have washed myself,
I have washed
tu te laves tu t'es lavé
il se lave il s'est lavé
