There are other contents of our book which we have not enumerated. Giving thus the origin aad explanation of Chinese words etc., why may not this same book, likewise be of great service to the Chinese in easily acquiring the English language? Such is our introduction this Anno Domini, 1903.

Inasmuch as the Chinese and Foreigners now universally exchange their products, it often happens that English speaking people wish to learn Chinese; moreover the Chinese themselves wish often to learu English for the purpose of commercial intercourse. It has been a matter of regret to each that heretofore there has been no convenient handbook that would enable the one to learn the other's language. To meet this demand, we have under the title — "Chinese Made Easy", especially prepared this book. •J- = phonetic. 34 ai6 199 see J 169 cliHl Out HO joong Kind f 200 ye \ Therefore 170 H-gork Canton 141 mot Thing 1 201 chee This Book 171 saru 112 gee Province Of 142 lew-e 143 sup Glass 202 aha Tenth 20i jo-e At 173 toe Native 144 chee This 204 yun 1 English 174 yum Tone 145 shu Book ; 205 muu 1 1 75 yoio And 146 choong In 206 choong Among 176 chee Next 147 jew-e Mostly 207 chiin Call mye By 148 yew Important 208 why Is 118 yot One 149 gee Of 209 whar 119 yun English 150 fart Rule 2\0ye Chinese 180 chee Letter - 151 koo-e This 211 y« Easy 181 ye To 152 «/<« Book 2\2 hawk Learn 182 guy Explain 153 /aW Sets forth 213 yar Period 183 yot One 154 farn All 184 ichar Chinese 214 chay Moreover 185 chee Letter 155 Aay Begin 215 Aav The 156 /ie Rule " 186 kay Then 1 Remainder 187 how After 157 sin First 216 ye (Balance of couterjts) 188 /lu/) With 158 yoong Use 189 /y»H English lh9yot One 217 hawk Learn O /->! • 218 fart Rule Still (Yet) 190 ye 191 s«)i 192 go-e Language Whole Sentence 160 w/iur 161 c/iee 162 chee (. hinese Letter 219 yun Next 220 may Not 193 ye To 163 ye By \ Explain 221 chay-xinpl , . ,_ , 19-1 guy Explain 164 yun English |(Amplity) 195 sun Whole 165 chee Letter 222 look Record 196 go-e 197 wAar Sentence Chinese 166 7no 167 ye Alphabet 223 yiu Origin To 224 % The 198 7nun Letter 168 tee-oo Spell 315 112 yum Recognize 86 yung Use 59 wAar Chinese 113c/iee Letter 87 yun Fulfil 60 ye Language Hi ye And 88 ckow Recompense 61 ye Easy 115 chum Find 89 say-ung A.lways 62 Aaw^ Learn 116 chee in dane 118 gee 119 fart Dictionary Such Method 90 ye 91 sarm 92 yow 93 fun 94 lo-e Language Third Have Divide 63 j/Mw Therefore 64 shu Book 65 choong In 66 hawk TiParn 120 chut Seventh Classifier 67 faH Rule 121 day Earth 95 dun Class 68 lay-uek In-general 122 coto Globe 96 hawk Learn 69 why Are 123 ung Five 97 fart Rule 70 hoo-e Begun 124 die Great Continents Country Name City Name 98 see 99 choorig 100 sigh 101 kork 102 mun 103 fart 104 ling 105 rlioovg 106 quork 107 sarm Fourth Middle (Country) West (Country) Every Letter 1 ^ Rule "> 1 o b' O 71 /ie 72yo< 73 so 74 mook 75 yo< 76% n yut 18 fun 19 ye 80 yow 81 cheen Set in ord 12b jow 126 5'uorA 127 mun 128 fow 129 mun First Numerals Days 130 bart ISl yun Eighth Man Living Occupation Months 132 sarn Fifth Middle | Country i Three 133 «ee 134 ?/eeyo Second From 135 hip With Easy 136 ooA Dwelling 108 c/(ee Letter g' 5' 82 yitjo Into 137 ?/e House 109 kun 110 look Classic ^ 83 some 84 koo-e Deeper 138 cow Ninth Sixth All 139 /tor-yl- Every 111 /mwA Learn 85 yo< Daily APPENDIX.

Now let us suppose that the Radical we have found consists of three strokes, and that in addition to the Radical the word we are looking for contains six extra strokes; we would now look up the three stroke Radical and then look through all the six stroke words in the dictionary under the given Radical until we found the exact six strokes that consti- tute the word. This can perhaps be better explained if we give an illustration of En- glish words. Suppose that all our English words could be classified under 214 heads; let us suppose that one of these heads is the three letter termination age and that the word we are looking up is a nine lettered word, three of wOiich are the combination age. (The word that we are looking up being espionage.) "We would now turn to the termination (equi- valent to a Radical) age.

We have already pointed out how all words are classified, either accord- ing to the number of strokes necessary to form a given character, or according to the Radical system. The latter is the most generally employed, 254 We reproduce herewith a page* showing the six varieties of Chinese writing, the left hand column (VI) being the style of characters employed throughout our book and other Ciiinese books generally. 2 B 13 ^ ^ > ^ i VI IV >e7 4 III m ^ A V •A 5t El El 5^ /^^ V B Q B B II 253 The student may also be interested to know that there are some six forms of writing Chinese characters. This it not so strange when we recall that the English language is written in several forms. For we know that we have our Old English Type, our Roman Type, our German Script, our Backhand Writing, Shorthand "Writing, etc. For the sake of brevity the Chinese in writing words of many strokes simplify their writing by abbreviating it, i.e. leaving out the smaller dots and dashes giving rise to the running hand or "grass" style. This is not ordinarily used in print- ing or in printed works. It is no easier for a Chinaman to decipher certain Chinese "grass" writings, than it is for us to decipher the chirography of some of our friends who are careless in writing English. The following are the names of the six forms or styles of Chinese writing. The student need not be discouraged by their presentation here- with. The learning of any style other than that in column six is a matter of no importance until the Book form (soong shii) has been well mastered. ^ s"" I The fanciful style — this form often found on bronze tablets, ^ shic \ porcelains, cakes of ink etc. ^ die 1 ^''^ plain style — square characters used for writing pre- II ' faces and inscriptions — formerly was used for official III sliii purposes. f^ ?"!/ Tlie pattern style — a model for good writing — works are ^ shii ] sometimes printed in this form though not usually. >fT hctm i IV \ A stiff form of the running hand — used often in business. '^. shii I (The free running hand known as the "cho" or "grass" style — it is an abbreviation of the "harn shu" ; these abbre- ^ shii [ viations are so varied according to the whim of the writer, ] that sometimes an educated Chinaman cannot read them. Yj 3^ ^oongj f|^g elegant form — these are the characters used in print- |fe shii \ ing which was invented about 900 A.D. 252 RULES FOR WRITING CHINESE CHARACTERS. The following rules may be observed in the writing of Chinese:* — 1. Be;iia cither at the top or on the left-hand side. 2. When a perpendicular or dash cuts a horizontal line ur one leg of an angle, tlie latter are to be written first, (cf. radicals 19, 24, 29, 32, 33, 41 . 4:i, &c.) 3. An angle at the top on the right side is made with one stroke, and unless rad. 4. or rad. 2 is affixed to the left of it, the angle is made first. In radicals IS, 19, 26, 29, 39, 44, 49, 105, 124, 129, 178, 183, it is made first. In radicals 13, 20, 34, 35, 36, 76, 122, 130, the angle is made second. 4. An angle at the bottom on the left is also made with one stroke, if it be alone, or be joine 1 to a perpendicular on the right, leaving the top or right side open, (cf. radicals 17, 22, 23, 28, 38, 45, 46, 49, 90, 206.) The characters in which -Sr (five strokes) occurs are exceptions to this rule; tlie angle on the left is made first; then the angle on the right; the points, next; and the horizontal, last. 5. The angles '^ and L- in P^ 'a door' are made first on each side respectively. 6. Horizontal lines precede perpendiculars, when these cross each other; but should the perpendicular terminate with the base line, then the base line is final. 7. In such characters as the radicals 42, 85, 77, 141, 197, 204. 211, the perpendiculars above, or in the middle of the symbol, are made first. 8. In such characters as p 'mouth' (rad. :!0.) the perpendicular on the left is to be written first; and the interior of such characters as ^ 'a kingdom,' ^ 'a garden,' is filled up before the base line is written. 251 Thus we see how originally words were employed. Of course it is understood that it is not a simple matter for the student to thus classify the characters , nor is it necessary for him to attempt to do so. We have given the above illustrations to enable the student to grasp the idea as to Chinese characters. It is well for the student to know that there are eight strokes used in forming Chinese characters. (1) (2) (3) (4) :k I J a point a horizontal line a perpendicular line a hook mm s ^ deem whart jick dee-oo (5) (6) (7) (8) V^ J V 7 I spike a sweep a dash an a ^ /E ^ ft tee-oo pie peat key-oo These eight strokes should be memorized together with their names. The Chinese devote particular attention to calligraphy — so should the serious student of the Chinese language. 250 Some other metaphorical character are ^ tawng = a linll is used for MOTHER. M sun = the sun ascending for tranquility. ^ nut = a house for wife. ^ hun = to raise for to flourish. The next class (6th , Phonetic) is the class under which most charac- ters are found and is called Phonetic because, in tlie character classed under it, one part gives its own sound to the whole figure, and thus acts as a symbol of sound merely. This part does sometimes convey also its symbolic meaning as well as its sound. The number of really useful phonetic characters amounts to about one thousand and forty. These when unitcil to the 214 radicals produce from fifteen to twenty thousand derivatives. Class 6. Phonetic. py kay = one's self — this character is the common part of tlie follow- ing words all of which are pronounced kay. bB kay ^ remember, being a combination of "self" and "words". ]^ kay = to fear, „ ,, „ „ "self" and "heart". ^ kay = to record, „ „ „ „ "self" and ''silk" (knotted silk originally used to record events). ~^ fawng = a square — this character is the common part of the follow- ing words all of which are pronounced fawng. gfe /"aaingf ^ to enquire, being a combination of "a square" and "words". j^ fawng ^ to set free, „ „ „ „ "a square." and "a blow". 4^r«u,ng=}'^j;;^;;^g«'-} „ „ , „ "asquare" and "earth". ^ ^auwg = a room, „ „ „ „ "a square" and "a dwelling". "dt kwoo = ancient — this character is the common part of the following words each one of which is pronounced kwoo. ffl fcwoo = firm, constant, being a combination of "ancient" and "an en- closure". *J fcitioo = matron , lady , being a combination of "ancient" and "woman". 249 Some other ideographics are ^E pie (two bands) = "to salute" — the Chinese clasp their hands together in salutation — • also means "to visit". 'I^fil sut = (heart and blood) pity. ^ l/ea = (roof, man and dark) night. The next class (4th, Antithetic) shows by the inversion of the figures, the antithetic significations which are attached to them. These inversions are however not so apparent in the modern character as in the ancient hieroglyphics; wherever the original elements of a compound are sought for, the ancient form must be consulted. Class 4. Antithetic.

The nominative or subject ordinarily precedes the verb eicept when the first person is meant, when from politeness of expression it is usually omitted, unless the omission would render the nomi- native uncertain. In order to express the time of action (i. e. the different shades of meaning dependent on what we term mood and tense), other words are added to the verb, which by their presence give an indication of the exact mood and tense intended; or the verb is so placed in the sentence as to shew the context or idea intended. This simpliSes the learning of Chinese verbs immensely doing away with the necessity of committin<; to memory any thing like the conjugations of verbs, such as obtain in Greek, Latin, French, Spanish, Italian etc. The passive form of the verb is rarely employed in ordinary conversation, hence the study of it need not occupy the attention of the beginner. 211 Awake.

A Man. ^B iiarm Oue (cl) I Male / gi Persou ° ARTICLES. It is customary, in speaking of material objects to precede them with a numeral eipressing the exact number of objects intended. — The use of the Indefinite Ar- ticle is thus superseded. — Be- tween the numeral and the noun, an appropriate word called a CLASSIFIER is iutroduced; this word is of a generic character, that is, it is applied to a certain class of objects supposed in some respects to be ANALAGOUS. In the English language the words, length, piece, and slice, etc. are similarly used — as a length ol rope — piece of business — etc. — Thus in Chinese the word T«^ gee meaning a branch, is applied to pens, candles, whips, and other straight things e. g. — ■ 7^ ■^p- yot gee hut — one (elassi- fier) pen, — j^^ ^ ^ yot gee viar bean — one (classifier) horse whip. The adjective comes between the classifier and its noun, thus — ' -tX /\. ^n J""" 9^" '''* but — one (classifier) big pen. We have numbered the classifiers for convenience in study. 186 SPECIMENS OF CHINESE POETRY. * f ''On taking leave of a Friend." ^ -^ ^ ^ -p ^ m X- /^ 3|5 i; ii ^t ^ ffi ffi m m t^ B m ^{')m )i 8 7 G 5 4 3 l; i: "Teu years have elapsed since last we parted, And no sooner have we met, than we part again: We may bind ourselves by promises to renew this meeting, But we shall never be so young as we are now !

In the English language the words, length, piece, and slice, etc. are similarly used — as a length of rope — piece of business — etc. ■ — Thus in Chinese ihe word Tw ijee meaning a branch, is applied to pens, candles, whips, and other straight things, e.g. ■ T«? -^Bt. yol gee but — one (classifier) pen, • /^^ jffe mj 'jot gee mar bean — one (classifier) horse whip. The adjective comes between the classifier and its noun, thus • Tn5 "T^ -^s ijot gee die but — one (classifier) big pen. IN ALL LESSONS CL\SSI11ERS ARE INDICATED BY (CL).

There is no article in Chinese, although a demonstrative pronoun or the nnmeral "one" frequently supplies its place. The Mood and Tenses of the verb are not marked by inflections, particles being used in their stead. There are no case inUectioLS in Chinese, hence the same word answers for I or me according to its place in the sentence ; thus 5k '(S "gate baij — 1 give, is when reversed 'j^ ^jj baij ngaw give me. In ordinary colloquial, the copulative conjunction is often replaced by the verb when several nouns are coupled, thus give me Ireacl, iul/er, and cojfee becomes in Chinese give Iread, gire butter, give coffee me. Many Chinese verbs are divided compound words and place (in speaking and writing) the object between their component parts, thus to tiring is literally Tjftu yK, neem lo-e — carry come. Bring me a cup of tea would be carry cup tea come me. The interrogative particles are respectively used rather in observance of custom than because of any marked difference in value, though -41 ?»o, seems more generally than the others, to imjily a belief on the part of the speaker that the answer will be aflirmative. chow Wine This. 5/g, nay Demoustra- 'tive proiiouul I Classifier of) ^ ho inen or thincpsl in general Pjj^ nay This These, or this.

Written Chinese words may be classified according to the number of "strokes", each character contains; by "strokes" we mean the number of separate strokes of the pen necessary to write a given word or character, thus the number of strokes of the pen may vary from one to twenty or more. The simple or uncomplicated stroke words are few (com- paratively) in number, hence it is impossible to give a beginner, any such thing as a primer, with a long list of easily written Chinese words; the first four or five lessons, of this book however, furnish a number of easily written, and easily remembered words. The numerals under each Chinese character in lessons I, III, IV, V, indicate the number of strokes of the pen, necessary to form the given word; it is advisable for the beginner to copy these characters, trying to "verify" the strokes in each. In lessons I, III, IV and V the student will note a similarity in the appearance of some of the characters; i, e.; certain words have as it were, a common root or "Radical": thus in lesson I the Chinese character y^ y>in — a man — appears in 20 cliai'acters; (in combination the J\^ becomes '^ and is almost invariably placed at the left of the word or character). As the student progresses he will observe that many Chinese words are compounds, or, combinations of two or throe or four separate Chinese words or characters, the dissection or analyses of which will, often reveal the idea, conveyed in the written character; thus ^ iio-e female, and -^ gee child, in combination become ij^ Jio — good; -^ ^jun a man (standing), and ^" yin a word, in SECTION I. EXPLANATION OF PRONUNCIATION. The sounds of the Chinese -words are given in italics, all words being spelled phonetically. As given in our system, they represent the nearest possible approach to some familiar English combination of letters e.g. to express the long broad "o" instead of printing it "do" we print it dough and so pronounce it. When is doubt as to the exact pronunciation always recall the nearest approach to an English equivalent — thus cheye is ch and ei/e, pronounced monosyllabically chejje. Remember also that all phonetics that are not monosyllabic are indicated by the employment of hyphens e. g. n-yoi-e, koo-c, lioo c, etc. etc. Ati is pronounced like the au in autocrat.
