PREFACE 
 
 In" the compilation of this work the endeavour has been to 
 produce in a compact volume that may be conveniently used by 
 students, travellers, and business men, a complete and accurate 
 vocabulary of the Spanish language. 
 
 With this end in view, and for the purpose of including all 
 the modern words with which the language has been enriched 
 through a general advancement in human knowledge and activ- 
 ity, the thirteenth edition (1899) of the Dictionary of the Koyal 
 Spanish Academy — which is the latest and highest authority in 
 Spanish lexicography — has been adopted as a ground-work, and 
 every word, every acceptation, every idiom contained in that 
 dictionary, with the exception of those that have become archaic, 
 is defined in this volume. 
 
 Furthermore, many words and acceptations have been added, 
 which, while not purely Castilian, are in general use in Spanish- 
 American countries and in the Philippine Islands, and also a 
 great number of technical terms that are frequently used in 
 commercial intercourse between Spanish- and English-speaking 
 countries. Indeed, this rapidly increasing intercourse, and the 
 ties that now bind to the United States several million people 
 whose vernacular is the Spanish language, have been kept 
 steadily in view during the preparation of the work, which is in- 
 tended to be as helpful to the American or English student of 
 Spanish as to the great number of Spaniards who are now study- 
 ing English. 
 
 To accomplish this purpose, a radical departure has been 
 made from the practice adopted in many dictionaries of giving 
 long explanations in English of the meaning of a Spanish word, 
 instead of supplying the student with the English equivalents. 
 A bilingual dictionary, like a good rule, should work both ways, 
 and to do this it should give equivalents rather than definitions. 
 
IV PKEF^CE 
 
 Numberless examples might be cited here to show the labori- 
 ous task implied in the search for correct equivalents, especially 
 as regards technical terms, many of which are either omitted or 
 erroneously translated in other dictionaries. 
 
 All the dictionaries of the Spanish and English languages, 
 and especially those by Velazquez, Gray and Iribas, Lopes and 
 Bensley, Ponce de Leon, Bustamante, Tolhausen, Wellesley and 
 Girones, have been frequently consulted and compared in the 
 course of compilation, and acknowledgment is hereby made for 
 valuable suggestions found in them. 
 
 Many new features, however, and thousands of words and ac- 
 ceptations not found in any similar work, have been introduced 
 here, as any one may verify by careful comparison of a single 
 page of this book with the corresponding page in any other dic- 
 tionary. As illustrative examples of the exhaustiveness of this 
 compilation, the reader is referred to such words as a, de, con, 
 por, que, le, se, nos, ese, uno ; dar, hacer, coger, estar, correr, 
 echar, ser, salir, seguir, poner, tirar, ver, venir ; Have, medio, 
 fuerza, ropa, tiro, titulo, viga, vida. 
 
 One special feature will no doubt commend itself to students 
 as a help toward the proper use of irregular verbs. The funda- 
 mental tenses of such verbs, from which other modes are formed, 
 are given with each infinitive, as well as the literal mutations 
 that some regular verbs undergo in some tenses. 
 
 In order to save space for more important matter, the pro- 
 nunciation usually given for each word has been dispensed with, 
 except in a few cases where some difficult word occurs ; but as 
 the Spanish pronunciation is simple, the few rules given in the 
 following pages, explanatory of a comprehensive key placed at 
 the foot of each page, should enable the student to pronounce 
 
 any word correctly.

RULES FOR SPANISH PRONUNCIATION 
 
 Vowels 
 
 The Spanish vowels are a, e, i, o, u, and occasionally y. 
 Each vowel has one invariable sound. 
 
 The sound of a is full, open, as in far ^ father^ farm^ alarm. 
 
 The sound of e is an intermediate sound between long a in 
 mate and short e in met,, as in eli ! weight. 
 
 The sound of i is the same as in police^ machine. 
 
 The sound of o is as in /or, order^ lord, form. 
 
 The sound of u is the same as short oo in wool, or u in bull, 
 pull, push. 
 
 All vowels should be clearly and distinctly sounded in all 
 cases, except u in the syllables gue, gui, que, qui, when it is 
 usually silent. When sounded in gue, gui, it is marked with a 
 dieresis, thus : giie, gili. 
 
 CONSOl^rAN^TS 
 
 B, b, has a softer sound than in English, produced by joining 
 the lips, without pressure. 
 
 C, 0, before a, o, u, or before another consonant, has the 
 sound of the English k, as in carro (car), costo (cost), cubo 
 (cube), close (class), crema (cream), acto (act). 
 
 C, c, before e, 1, has the sound of th in theft, thin, as in 
 Ciceron (Cicero), pronounced thie-thay-ron'. 
 
 Ch, ch, like the English oh in cheese, riches. It never has 
 the sound of k, nor of ch in machine. 
 
 D, d, is softer than in English. It is sounded by touching 
 the edge of the upper teeth with the tip of the tongue, and the 
 sound resembles that of th in this, that. 
 
 F, ff the same as in English. 
 
 G, g, before a, o, u, or before a consonant, has the sound of 
 English g, as in gas (gas), goma (gum), guano (guano), gloria 
 Iglory), gracia (grace), ignorante (ignorant), etc. 
 
VI EULES FOE SPANISH PEONUNCIATION 
 
 Before e, i, it has a harsh aspirate sound, as that of English 
 h in hey, he ; as geologia (geology), pronounced hey-o-lo-he'-a. 
 
 H, h, is always silent. 
 
 J, j, has the harsh aspirate sound of English h in hat, hot, 
 hood: same as Spanish g before e, i. 
 
 K, k, as in English. 
 
 L, 1, as in English. 
 
 U, 11, is a Spanish digraph, and sounds always like the Eng- 
 lish 11 in million, brilliant. 
 
 M, m, as in English. 
 
 N, n, as in English. 
 
 N, n, like ny in caiiyon^ ronyon. 
 
 P, p, as in English. 
 
 d, q, as in English. 
 
 E, r, between two vowels has the sound of English r in 
 caramel. When it begins a word, or is preceded by 1, n, s, or 
 when doubled, rr, it has a rolling or trilling sound, produced by 
 vibrating the tip of the tongue by a strong expulsion of breath. 
 
 S, s, has the sound of English s in sassafras, and no other. 
 
 T, t, differs from the English sound of t in that it is sounded 
 by placing the tip of the tongue between the teeth. 
 
 V, V, as in English. 
 
 X, X, sounds as ks or gs, never as sh. In some old Spanish 
 words it is pronounced as Spanish j (aspirate h), as Mexico, 
 pronounced May'-he-co. 
 
 Y, y, when a consonant, sounds as in the English word year, 
 young. When it stands alone as a conjunction (meaning and), 
 or is at the end of a word, it is a vowel, and has the sound of 
 Spanish i (English long e). 
 
 Z, z, has the sound of th in thick, thatch, thought : same as 
 Spanish c before e, i. 
 
 The Key to Peonunciation 
 
 In a line at the foot of each page will be found a key giving 
 the sounds of letters in Spanish that differ most from the equiv- 
 alent English letters. Those who make themselves thoroughly 
 conversant with the simple rules given above will find little 
 difficulty in pronouncing Spanish words. When a word occurs 
 that is not covered by the Key, the pronunciation is given in 
 brackets. 
 
RULES FOE SPANISH PRONUNCIATION Vll 
 
 EuLES FOR Spanish Accentuation 
 
 1. Place the inflection on every vowel that has the graphic 
 accent ; e. g., cantara, cantara, haul, corazon, alegria, esdrujulo, 
 pagaselo, castiguesemele. 
 
 2. On words not accented, ending with a vowel, or with an n 
 or s, place the inflection on the penultimate syllable ; e. g., can- 
 tara, cataclismo, ordinario, caramelos, contradicen (accent thus : 
 •janta'ra, cataclis'mo, ordina'rio, carame'los, contradi'cen). 
 
 3. On words not accented, ending with a consonant (except 
 a or s), plav^e the inflection on the last syllable; e. g., principal, 
 contemplad, conocer, albornoz, occiput (accent thus : principal', 
 contemplad', conocer', albornoz', occiput'). 
 
 Irregular Verbs 
 
 The fundamental modes of irregular verbs are given with 
 each infinitive, and likewise the mutations of letters occurring 
 in some regular verbs — a feature not heretofore presented in 
 any dictionary of the Spanish language.

PREFACIO 
 
 Los prodigiosos descubrimientos e invenciones que marcan el 
 progreso realizado de medio siglo a esta parte en todos los ramos 
 de la actividad humana, y sus multiples aplicaciones a los usos de 
 la vida han enriquecido de tal modo el vocabulario de las leuguas 
 modernas, y muy particularmente de la inglesa, que cada dia se 
 hace sentir mas la necesidad de un diccionario que responda a las 
 exigencias del creciente interoambio de ideas y productos entre 
 los pueblos de la raza anglo-sajona y los que hablan la armoniosa 
 lengua castellana. 
 
 A mediados del siglo XIX vi6 la luz el diccionario bilingiie de 
 Velazquez, basado sobre el antiguo de Seoane, Neuman y Baretti, 
 y aumentado con multitud de vocablos que lo ponian a la altura 
 de aquella epoca. 
 
 Cuantos diccionarios se han publicado posteriormente, tanto 
 en Europa como en America, han sido moras copias del famoso 
 lexico de Velazquez, 6, a lo sumo, revisiones mas 6 menos concien- 
 zudas, con aditamento de algunas palabras modernas. Pero, por 
 muy meritorias que sean algunas de esas revisiones, resultan defi- 
 cientes en la practica para los que tienen ocasion de consultar con 
 frecuencia el diccionario. 
 
 Esa experiencia ha evidenciado la necesidad de compilar un 
 diccionario bilingiie enteramente nuevo, trazado sobre un patron 
 mas moderno y mas exacto que el que ha servido para los publi- 
 cados hasta hoy dia. 
 
 El proposito a que se ha ajustado la presente obra ha sido reu- 
 nir en un volumen manuable el mds nutrido, complete y correct© 
 vocabulario de los idiomas ingles y espaflol que pueda hallarse en 
 un diccionario bilingiie, descartando un sinnumero de arcaismos, 
 vocablos desusados, provincialismos y palabras de incorrecta orto- 
 grafia de que suelen estar plagados otros diccionarios y que s6lo 
 contribuyen a engrosar su tamafio. 
 
 Con este fin, y para que el diccionario resulte enteramente 
 nuevo y contenga los mas recientes y autorizados neologismos de 
 uno y otro idioma, el autor ha adoptado como base y punto de 
 partida para la Parte espafiola-inglesa, la reciente edici6n del 
 
IV PKEFACIO 
 
 Diccionario de la Academia, transcribiendo palabra por palabii* 
 cuantos vocablos contiene aquel 16xico, asi como todos los mas 
 usuales modismos, con la sola excepcion de las voces anticuadas 
 y de las que ban caldo totalmente en desuso, y anotando los 
 equivalentes ingleses de las diversas acepciones de cada palabra. 
 Igual procedimiento se ha seguido para la Parte inglesa-espaflola, 
 sirviendo de base el admirable Standard Dictionary^ tambien de 
 reciente publicacion, cuyos vocablos, acepciones y modismos se 
 ban transcrito con sus equivalencias castellanas. 
 
 El convencimiento de que el oficio y la verdadera utilidad de 
 todo diccionario bilingiie consisten en dar equivalencias en lugar 
 de definiciones que en nada auxilian al traductor y que este 
 puede buscar en el diccionario de su propio idioma, ha hecho 
 necesaria una cuidadosa y ardua labor de investigaci6n para hallar 
 los equivalentes exactos en una y otra lengua, especialmente de 
 las voces de tecnologia cientifica y de los tecnicismos mercantilcF 
 6 industriales que en gran numero se ban incluido en esta obra, 
 por considerarlos de suma utilidad dado el creciente desarrollo 
 de las relaciones entre los Estados Unidos y los paises hispano- 
 americanos. 
 
 Para tener una idea de lo nutrida que va esta obra en punto a 
 tecnicismos, bastard cote jar las voces cuyas raices son electr-^ 
 hydr-, micro-, photo-^ con las de otros diccionarios bilingiies, sin 
 contar los innumerables terminos que figuran entre las acepciones 
 de mucbos vocablos y cuyo caracter t^cnico se indica por medio 
 de una abreviatura entre parentesis, lo cual, sobre economizar 
 espacio y bacer inutiles otras explicaciones, es de gran auxilio 
 para el traductor. 
 
 En otro punto esencial difiere esta obra de todos los diccio- 
 narios bilingiies publicados hasta la fecha, y es en el sisteina de 
 anotacion fonetica adoptado para representar la pronunciacion 
 inglesa. Tras un estudio detenido de este important! si mo punto 
 y despues de examinar cuidadosamente los sistemas ad op tad os 
 en otros diccionarios, el autor ha formulado uno enteramente 
 nuevo que se expone a continuaci6n, en el cual ha procurado sim- 
 plificar las dificultades que presenta la pronunciacion inglesa, 
 reduciendolas a una clave breve, eencilla y de facil aplicacion. 
 
 Multuni in parvo ha sido el ideal que ha perseguido el autor 
 en la compilacion de esta obra, y al logro de este empefio ban 
 coadyuvado eficazmente los editores produciendo un libro que 
 contiene, en forma compacta y de esmerada tipografia, mayor 
 suma de informaci6n que otros voluminosos diccionarios.

PE0NUNCIACI(5N inglesa 
 
 El alfabeto ingles consta de 26 letras, de las cuales cinco son 
 vocales, veinte consonantes y una, — la y, — lo mismo que en cas- 
 tellano, puede hacer ambos oficios. 
 
 Pero asi como el alfabeto espanol tiene 28 letras para expresar 
 los 25 sonidos que constituyen la fonetica del idioma, no bastan 
 las 26 letras del alfabeto ingles para representar los numerosos 
 sonidos que se emplean en la revesada pronunciacion de esa 
 lengua. M siquiera estan acordes los filologos ingleses respecto 
 del numero de sonidos de su fonetica, pues mientras la Asociacion 
 Filologica Americana limita a 32 los sonidos f undamentales, hay 
 gramaticos que reconocen 43 sonidos distintos (Richard Morris 
 en Historical Outlines of English Accidence^ pp. 61, 62), y otros 
 los hacen ascender a 46 (Evan Daniel en The Grammar^ History 
 and Derivation of the English Language^ p. 290). La segunda cifra 
 parece ser la mas aproximada, puesto que solamente a las vocales 
 hay que asignar 19 sonidos diferentes, quedando 24 para las con- 
 sonantes, sin contar el de la ^, 5' y a; que lo tienen repetido. 
 
 No tan solo respecto de los sonidos fundamentales, sino hasta 
 en la pronunciacion de numerosas palabras estan en completo 
 desacuerdo filologos y lexicografos ingleses de reconocida autori- 
 dad, puesto que no hay reglas generales que determinen la recta 
 pronunciacion de los vocablos ; dandose el caso de que algunos de 
 ellos, — como por ejemplo caricature, exemplary, exptirgator, fa- 
 miliarity, cynosure, capillary, euthanasia, etc. — pueden pronun- 
 ciarse de diez 6 doce modos distintos, segun el diverso parecer de 
 los peritos. ( V. Standard Dictionary, Disputed Pronuncia- 
 tions, pp. 2287-2308.) 
 
 Son tantas las dificultades prosodicas que presenta el idioma, 
 que los lexicografos ingleses se ven en la necesidad de representai 
 en los diccionarios de la lengua, por medio de una clave fonetica, 
 la correcta pronunciacion de cada vocablo. Pero tampoco en estc 
 punto de la representacion ortologica por medio de " fonemas " 6 
 signos convencionales se encuentra concordancia en los dicciona-. 
 rios de pronunciacion. Basta leer en el prefacio de los grandes 
 lexicos, — como el monumental del Dr. Murray que se publica en 
 Oxford, y los de Webster, Century y Standard publicados en los 
 Estados Unidos, — la parte que dedican k explanar el sistema que 
 en cada uno de ellos se ha adoptado para representar fon^tica- 
 mente la pronunciacion, para comprender las dificultades que 
 ofrece la representacion exacts por medio de signos graficos de 
 
VI PRONUNCIACIOK INGLESA 
 
 los 43 sonidos distintos que componen la fonetica del idioma. Y 
 si esto es asi tratandose de diccionarios destinad()s a personas 
 para quienes el ingles es idioma vernaculo, <: que no sera cuando 
 se intente dar a conocer por modo grafico esos sonidos a personas 
 de habla distinta, para las cuales muchos de ellos son totalmente 
 desconocidos y de dificil pronunciacion ? 
 
 En la imposibilidad, pues, de representar de un modo fiel y 
 exacto y al mismo tiempo de f acil comprension, todas las diversas 
 y finisimas graduaciones de los sonidos vocales y de algunas ar- 
 ticulaciones consonantes del idioma ingles, creemos preferible 
 evitar la confusi6n que pudiera producir una clave complicada, y 
 nos limitaremos d dar una representacion aproximada de la pro- 
 nunciacion de cada vocahlo^ tal como se leeria en castellano, valien- 
 donos para ello de las letras de nuestro alfabeto que mejor la in- 
 diquen, excepto para unos cuantos sonidos extraflos a nuestra 
 lengua que sera preciso representar con caracteres especiales. 
 Con ese fin presentamos k continuacion una sencillisima clave 
 fonetica, cuyo uso no puede ofrecer la menor dificultad despues 
 de leer las explicaciones que la acompafian. La comparacion que 
 en ellas se hace de ciertos sonidos ingleses con otros similares del 
 frances, aleman, italiano y Catalan, podra servir a los que viven 
 en paises donde no se habla el ingles para consultar a las personas 
 que conozcan alguno de los citados idiomas y oir de yiva voa 
 dichos sonidos, unico modo de aprenderlos correctamente. 
 
 CLAVE Y EXPLICACI6N DE LOS SONIDOS QUE MXS SE 
 DIFERENCIAN DEL CASTELLANO 
 
 ,-L \ Signo 
 
 a [breve) fonetic* 
 
 § 1. TJno de los aeis sonidos que tiene la a es indefinido entre la a 
 J la e, parecido al que suelen dar a la a los catalanes : este sonido que 
 se encuentra en vocablos como fat, man, hat, have, etc., lo repre- 
 sentaremos con el mismo signo con que lo designaban los anglo-sajo- 
 nes, que es el adoptado en el diccionario de Oxford . . . . » 
 
 c = s = z 
 
 § 2. En ciertos casos estas tres consonantes tienen un sonido suave 
 igual al que tiene la « 6 la 2; francesa en las palabras rose, maison, 
 gazon, 6 fa italiana y catalana en rosa, casa, 6 la alemana en rose, 
 nose. Este sonido se encuentra en palabras inglesas como sacrifice, 
 suffice ; has, noise, rose, nose, ribs ; »eal, prli;e, y lo represen- 
 taremos con el signo ft 
 
 C = 8 = 8h = t = X 
 
 § 3. Estas consonantes en ciertas palabras tienen un sonido igual 
 d la ch francesa en chiffon, peche, 6 & la. sc italiana en scivolare, uscire, 
 peace, 6 a la sch alemana en schiff, fisch, kirsche, 6 &\a, x catalana en 
 xicot, caixal, peix. Este sonido que se encuentra en las palabras 
 inglesas ocean, social, precious ; dimension, sure ; sT^ip, fish \ 
 acfion, partial; ana?ious, etc.; lo representaremos con el grupo . §h 
 
PRONUKCIACIOIT INGLESA TU 
 
 Signo 
 e = l = = U = y fonltico 
 
 § 4. Estas vocales tienen en un sinniSmero de voces inglesas un 
 sonido medio entre o j e, 6 entre e j u, casi igual al diptongo fran- 
 ces eu, en deux, peur, leur, 6 al triptongo frances oeu en wuf, (Buvrsj 
 coeur, smur, 6 a la o aleraana en schon, horse, Korper. Es tal vez el 
 sonido mas coiniin en ingles : se encuentra en palabras como ermine, 
 verge, preference; proper; firm, Sir, irKSome, virgin; son, 
 done, other; million, mansion, director; bi^flf, hut, u% ct*r; 
 ci«rrent, better ; mi/rtle, etc., y lo representaremos con . . 09 
 
 g=j=S=Z 
 
 § 5. En algunos voeablos, como griant, coUegre ; «7ohn, cTbseph ; 
 pleasure, leisure ; evasion, illusion, corrosion ; a^^ure, seis^ure, 
 
 etc., estas consonantes tienen un sonido parecido al descrito en el 
 § 3 (sh), pero mucho mas suave. Es un sonido igual al que tiene la g 
 antes de e, i 6 bien la / en frances (geant, college, Jean, Joseph), 6 en 
 italiano {Giovanni, Giuseppe, Gerardo), 6 en Catalan (gegant, col-legi^ 
 Joan, Josep) y se produce arqueando la lengua casi hasta tocar el cielo 
 de la boca como para pronunciar fuertemente la y: este sonido lo 
 representaremos por consiguiente con la letra mayiiscula . . . Y 
 
 til 
 
 Esta combinacion tiene dos sonidos : uno suave y otro fuerte. 
 
 § 6. El sonido suave, que tiene en voeablos como the^ thi», thai, 
 f/tem, es mucho mas suave que la d castellana, y se pronuncia tocando 
 suavemente con la lengua el borde de los dientes superiores ; por con- 
 siguiente lo representaremos con la letra mayiiscula . . . . D 
 
 § 7. El sonido fuerte, que tiene en voeablos como thick, thro&t, 
 theatre, truth, es igual al de la z castellana que se pronuncia no 
 como una s, sino como en Castilla colocando la punta de la lengua 
 entre los dos hileras de los dientes, y este sonido, para que no lo equi- 
 voquen los hispano-americanos con la s, lo representaremos con z bas- 
 tardilla z 
 
 Si el consultor de este diccionario procura retener en la memoria el sonido 
 que corresponde a cada uno de los siete signos indicados, no tendra la menor 
 dificultad en pronunciar las palabras inglesas, leyendo como si fuera en 
 castellano la representacion fonetica que acompafLa d cada vocablo y cuidando 
 de cargar la inflexion de voz en la vocal marcada con acento. 
 
 Los sonidos de los numerosos diptongos y de las vocales y consonantes in- 
 glesas no expresados arriba, se representaran aproximadamente como suenan 
 en castellano. 
 
 En resumen : la correcta pronunciacion del ingles solo puede aprenderse do 
 viva voz; por muy detallada y comprensiva que sea una clave fonetica, el 
 estudiante que no tenga otro medio para aprender los sonidos, solo llegara a 
 adquirir una pronunciacion aproximada e imperfecta ; cuanto mas sencilla y 
 clara sea dicha clave, mas se le facilitara el estudio de la pronunciacion en los 
 prineipios, y despues, cuando este mds avanzado en el conocimiento del idioma, 
 podra con mas provecho perfeccionar su pronunciacion consultando lexicos 
 mgleses como el Webster, Standard 6 Century.

ADVEETENCIA 
 
 PARA LA MEJOR COMPRENSI6N DE ALGUNOS SIGNOS USADOS 
 EN ESTE LIBRO 
 
 La tendencia a simplificar la ortografia hace que en los Estados Unidos se 
 elimine alguna letra innecesaria en ciertas palabras como clamor, honor^ 
 labor, que en Inglaterra continuan escribiendose en su integridad (clamour, 
 honour, labour). Estas y otras supresiones parecidas, autorizadas por el uso 
 y por los lexicografos, se indican cerrando con un parentesis la letra que suele 
 6 puede suprimirse, v. gr. : clamo(u)r, hono(u)r, labo(u)r, jewel(l)er, jewel- 
 (le)ry, judg(e)ment, rat(t)an, gast(e)ropod. 
 
 Asimismo, para economizar espacio, se marcan con un parentesis algunos 
 substantives y los numerosos adjetivos que tienen dos terminaciones, v. gr. ; 
 gelatin(e, presage(ment, knnr(l, kurd(isli, labiate(d, grammatic(aly 
 comic(al, que pueden escribirse integramente 6 bien gelatin, presage, knur, 
 kurd, labiate, grammatic, comic. 
 
 En la representacion fonetica de los vocablos que tienen dos terminaciones 
 6 de aquellos que pueden pronunciarse de dos maneras distintas, se suprimen 
 las silabas identicas que ya sabra suplir el buen sentido del lector, v. gr : pre- 
 eursive, precursory [precdersiv, sori], proniinciese [preccfersiv, precdersori] ; 
 predecessor [pre- 6 (pri-) desesoer], quiere decir que esa palabra puede pronun- 
 ciarse [predesescer 6 pridesesoer] ; predominance, predominancy [predomi- 
 nans, i], quiere decir que la primera se pronuncia [predominans] y la segunda 
 [predominansi]. 
 
 Los vocablos que no van acompanados de representacion fonetica, como 
 lord, mar, mark, nest, park, part, pass, rich, rip, etc., se pronuncian en 
 ingles aproximadamente como se leen en castellano.
