Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Vocabulary of the English and Malay Languages, Vol. 2: With Notes; Malay English
This Volume contains many more Malay words than Volume I and though a large number of these will not be found in any Malay Dictionary I have had an opportunity of consulting, I have introduced them into this Vocabulary because they are commonly used by the Malays amongst themselves, though but few may be known to Europeans.
There are still numbers of purely Malay words, either local to parti cnlar places, or but seldom used even by well educated Malays, which I have not included in this Volume, but which, I think, should be found in a comprehensive Dictionary, though I know of none which contains them.
