"Arranged on an excellent plan."-Daily Chronicle. Bourdrez, Dutch Made Easy to Englishmen who wish to learn to speak it in the shortest possible time. Pronunciation, Grammar, Practical Conversations, etc., by J. J. L. BoURDREZ. Cl. The compiler has followed a method, which, though not new, has certainly not been followed by his predecessors, and which offers particular advan tages. It is beyond dispute that pronunciation is the great stumbling-block to all students of the Dutch language, and one of the distinctive features of this book is a graphical imitation in English spelling of the pronunciation of all the Dutch words to be found in it. Even the tourist who makes no special study of the first two parts will find the Vocabulary at the end of great convenience, and need be at no loss to pronounce a word or a sentence.
