PREFACE TO REVISED EDITION.
When I was asked to undertake the preparation of this French Dictionary,
I had no idea of the formidable nature of the task that lay before me. It
was obvious, of course, that a very great deal would have to be done to
bring up to date a dictionary of a living language that is ever growing,
and in which new words and new meanings of words are being coined almost
daily. But I found, in the course of the four and a half years during
which I have been engaged upon the work, that it assumed proportions
altogether undreamt of, and that I was virtually producing a new work.
Perhaps I may be permitted to direct attention to some of the features
which distinguish the new edition.
Many thousands of new words and phrases, idioms and idiomatic
expressions, proverbs and proverbial expressions, have been included. In
a great many instances chapter and verse have been given. Two hundred
columns of print have been added to the book.
For the words in the French-English part, I have closely followed the
smaller Littré as well as Bescherelle, and have taken special care to
give, as far as the compass of the Dictionary would allow, illustrative
examples of the many and various meanings conveyed by the words under
review. These various meanings have also been classified, as far as
possible, under their respective heads. In the English-French portion I
have, as far as the selection of words is concerned, closely followed the
lines of Cassell’s English Dictionary. The latest classical, general,
scientific, commercial, naval, and military terms are incorporated. In
this part, too, the “notation” of the words has been carefully marked
throughout and the pronunciation revised.
Among other features of the work which may justly, I think, be
accounted improvements, I may mention the following, viz.: the
different prepositions governing verbs have been printed in heavier
type—thus simplifying one of the greatest difficulties of the language;
the pronunciation of the words, where necessary, has been carefully
indicated; and the list of geographical names of countries and places has
been largely added to.
The work has occupied me, as I have said, for more than four years;
but the process of revision has been to me most interesting, and while
the labour expended has been far greater than anything I could have
anticipated, I trust that the result will give satisfaction to an even
larger circle of readers than was obtained by previous editions.

FRENCH VOWEL SOUNDS.
The Simple, or Vowel sounds, in the French language, are as follows:—
French. English. French.
a (short) like a in _bat_, exemplified by _mal_.
â (long) like a _bar_ _âge_.
e sounded like a _villă_ _me_, _je_.
è, ê e _e’er_, _there_ _père_.
é ai, e _air_, _eh_! _été_.
i ea _peak_ _pique_.
î ie _field_ _gîte_.
o o _rob_ _mol_.
ô o _no_ _môle_.
u no equivalent in English (nearest approach is _u_
in _brunette_) exemplified by _suc_.
û no equivalent in English _sûre_.
eû sounded like e in _her_ (but longer and deeper) _jeûne_.
ou oo _root_ exemplified by _goutte_.
oû oo _noose_ _voûte_.
an no equivalent in English _tan_.
in _fin_.
on _bon_.
un _brun_.
Y, when alone, or when preceded or followed by a consonant, is pronounced
like an _i_; except in _pays_, _paysan_, _paysage_. When placed between
two vowels, it performs the office of two _i_’s, and is always preceded
by _a_, _e_, _o_, or _u_. When preceded by _a_ or _e_, it unites its
first _i_ with this vowel, and sounds _è_, as in _rayon_, which is
pronounced _rè-ion_; when preceded by _o_, its first _i_ is sounded
in conjunction with _o_, like _wa_ in the English word _wag_, as in
_joyeux_, which is pronounced _joa-ieû_; and when preceded by _u_, its
own two _i_’s preserve their natural sound, as in _appuyer_, which is
pronounced _appui-ié_.
A is long in the termination _aille_, except in _médăille_, _je
travăille_, _détăille_, _émăille_, _băille_ (I give). It is also long in
_ation_, as, _nation_, _admiration_, _oblation_; pronounce therefore,
_pāille_, _limāille_, _canāille_, _nātion_, _admirātion_, _oblātion_, etc.
In the terminations of the imperfect of the subjunctive of verbs of the
first conjugation, the _a_ is always short; as _que je parlăsse_, _que je
donnăsse_.
NASAL SOUNDS.
The nasal syllables are: _aim_, _ain_, _am_, _an_, _aon_; _ean_, _eim_,
_ein_, _em_, _en_, _eon_, _eun_; _im_, _in_; _om_, _on_; _um_, _un_; _ym_.
_Am_, _an_, _ean_, are pronounced like _an_, without exception; as
_ambition_, _vendant_, _songeant_. _Em_ and _en_ are also pronounced
like _an_, as in _emploi_, _empire_, _envie_; but not always. In words
derived from foreign languages, they are pronounced liked _ème_, _ène_;
as _Jerusalem_, _hymen_. In words terminating in _en_ or _ein_, and in
their derivatives, _en_ is pronounced like _in_; as _mien_, _Chrétien_,
_Chrétienté_; and in the verbs _tenir_, _venir_, and their derivatives,
_en_ is sounded like _in_; as _tiens_, _viens_.
In _femme_, _em_ is pronounced like _am_.
_Im_, _in_, _aim_, _ain_, _ein_, are all pronounced like _in_. The _i_,
however, keeps its natural sound in words taken from foreign languages,
as in _Sélim_, _Ephraim_, which are pronounced as if the _m_ were
followed by a silent _e_; in all words in which _in_ is followed by a
vowel; as _in-animé_, _in-octavo_, _in-odore_, _in-humain_; and in the
beginning of words commencing with _imm_ and _inn_.
_Om_, _on_, are pronounced like _on_; as in _pont_, _tombe_; _complet_,
_donjon_. _Automne_ is pronounced _ôtonn_.
_Aen_, _aon_, _ean_ are sounded as _an_ in the following words: _Caen_,
_Laon_, _taon_, _faon_, _paon_, _Jean_.
_Eon_ is sounded _on_ when following _g_: _mangeons_, _plongeon_.
_Um_, _un_, _eun_, are pronounced like _un_; as in _parfum_, _importun_,
_à jeun_.
_Un_ is, however, sounded _on_ in a few words of foreign origin: _punch_,
_de profundis_.
_Um_ is pronounced like _ome_ in words of Latin origin, as _duumvir_,
_triumvir_; _factum_, _factotum_.
CONSONANTS.
B has the same sound as in English; as _bal_, ball. It is pronounced in
the middle and at the end of words.
C has the sound of _k_ before _a_, _o_, _u_, _l_, _n_, _r_, except when
it has a cedilla under it, in which case it is pronounced like _s_, as
_reçu_. It is also pronounced like _s_ before _e_, _i_, and _y_. _Ch_ has
the sound of _sh_, except when it is followed by a consonant, in which
case it is pronounced like _k_; as in _chronologie_.
D has the same sound as in English. It is sounded in the middle of words,
as in _adverbe_. When it is final, and carried to the following word, it
sounds like _t_, as in _grand homme_, which is pronounced _gran-tomme_.
F is pronounced like the same letter in English, as in _fleur_, flower.
It is sounded at the end of words; but in _neuf_ it is pronounced like
_v_ when followed by a word beginning with a vowel or _h_ mute, as in
_neuf enfants_, which words are pronounced _neu-van-fan_.
G has the hard sound of _g_ in the English word _go_, before _a_, _o_,
_u_, _l_, _m_, _r_, as in _gomme_, _gris_, gum, gray. But it has always
the soft sound of _s_ as in _pleasure_ before _e_, _i_, _y_, as in
_génie_, _gîte_.
When combined with _n_ in the middle of words, it has a liquid sound,
somewhat similar to that of _ni_ in the English word onion, as _régner_,
_saigner_, _agneau_, _compagnon_, etc. Every word in which this sound
occurs is preceded by a star (*) throughout this work. Whenever _gn_ is
not liquid, it sounds as in the English word ignorant.
H is sounded with a guttural impulse, when aspirated, as in _héros_,
hero. When mute it has no use but that of showing the etymology of the
word, as in _honneur_, honor. It is always silent after _t_, as in
_méthode_, _arithmétique_, which are pronounced _métod_, _a-rit-mé-tik_.
The aspirated _h_ is marked throughout this work with a dagger (†).
J has always the sound of _s_ in _pleasure_, and is subject to no
irregularity.
K has always a hard sound, as in the English word king, and is subject to
no irregularity.
L has two sounds. The first is precisely the same as _l_ in the English
word lily. The second is liquid. The liquid _l_, whether double or
single, is always preceded by _i_. It is similar to the sound of the last
_i_ in William.
It is to be remarked, that _i_, followed by _l_ or _ll_, and preceded
by another vowel, is always silent in pronunciation; it only serves
to indicate the liquid sound of the _l_, as in _paille_, _soleil_,
_patrouille_, which ought to be pronounced _pâ-i_, _solé-i_, _patrou-i_.
But when _i_ is not preceded by another vowel, as in _fille_, it retains
its natural sound, and serves at the same time to indicate the liquid
sound of _l_. And here in _fille_, pronounced _fi-i_, we find both the
_i_ natural and the _i_ which stands for _ll_.
Whenever _i_ begins a word, as in _illusion_, the _l_’s are never liquid.
The liquid _l_ is marked throughout this work with a star (*).
P has the sound of the same letter in English, as in _peine_, pain.
When combined with _h_, it has the sound of _f_, as in _philosophe_,
philosopher.
Q has the hard sound of _k_, as in the English word _quaker_. Whether
initial or medial, _q_ is always followed by _u_, which is not sounded
except in a few words that are noticed in the course of this work.
R has the same sound as in English, but is articulated much more
strongly, as in _rivière_, river. It is always sounded at the end of
words, when preceded by the vowels _a_, _i_, _o_, _u_. In substantives,
adjectives, and verbs ending in _er_, it is silent, unless it is followed
by a word beginning with a vowel or _h_ mute, as in _dernier ouvrage_,
which is pronounced _dernié-rouvraj_.
S has two sounds. The first is hissing, as in the English word _sister_;
the second is soft, as in the English word _please_. It has uniformly
the hissing sound at the beginning of words, and the soft between two
vowels. Both sounds occur in _saison_. It preserves its hissing sound in
compound words, as in _parasol_, _vraisemblable_; and when it happens to
be sounded at the end of words, as in _Pallas_, _Brutus_, _vis_.
When _s_ final is joined to the following word, it is always articulated
like _z_, as in _dans un cas important_, which must be pronounced
_dān-zun-kâ-zin-por-tān_.
T has two sounds; one hard, as in the English word _tutor_, and the other
like the hissing _s_, as in _sister_. Both occur in _situation_, which is
pronounced _si-tuā-sion_. It has the hissing sound before _i_, connected
with some other following vowel or vowels, as in _patience_, _factieux_,
which are pronounced _pasian-s_, _fak-sieû_.
When _t_, however, is immediately preceded by _s_, it preserves the hard
sound, as in _bastion_, _question_, which are pronounced _bas-tion_,
_kès-tion_.
X has generally the sound of _ks_. In all words beginning with _x_ or
_ex_, followed by a vowel, it has the sound of _gz_, as in _Xavier_,
_exil_, which are pronounced _gzavié_, _èg-zil_. When final, it is joined
to the following word, and sounds like _z_, as in _beaux yeux_, _dix
hommes_, which are pronounced _bô-zieû_, _dî-zom_. X has the sound of
_ss_ in _Auxerre_, _Auxonne_, and _Bruxelles_.
FINAL CONSONANTS.
The final consonants that are sounded are _b_, _c_, _f_, _k_, _l_, _m_,
_q_, _r_.
The final consonants that are not sounded in words which stand alone,
or terminate a sentence, are, _d_, _g_, _h_, _n_, _p_, _r_ (in the
termination _er_ only), _s_, _t_, _x_, _z_.
J and v are never final.
D is pronounced like _t_ when joined to the following word, as in _quand
il parle_, which must be pronounced _kān-til parle_.
G is pronounced like _k_, as in _sang impur_, which is pronounced
_sān-kin-pur_.
P is pronounced only in _Alep_, _cap_, _Gap_, _cep_, _jalap_; and in
_beaucoup_, _trop_, when those two words come before a vowel. In _cep de
vigne_, the _p_ is silent.
R, preceded by e, is frequently silent in conversation before a vowel,
but it must always be sounded in poetry, unless it terminates the verse.
S, before a vowel, sounds like _z_, as in _nous avons eu_, which must be
pronounced _nou-zavōn-zu_. S is sounded in _aloès_, _bibus_, _blocus_,
_chorus_, _choléramorbus_, _dervis_, _florès_, _gratis_, _jadis_, _laps_,
_maïs_, _mars_, _orémus_, _ours_, _rébus_, _relaps_, _Reims_, _Rubens_,
_sinus_, _en sus_, _vasistas_, etc. It is silent in _Jésus-Christ_, but
sounded in _le Christ_.
T is generally pronounced before a vowel, except when it is preceded by a
sounded consonant, as in _effort étonnant_, pronounced _é-for-éto-nan_;
in _quatre-vingt-un_ it is not pronounced, but it is sounded in _vingt
et un_. In all plural nouns, and in the conjunction _et_; also before a
vowel in _fort_, adjective, it is silent, but it is sounded in _fort_,
adverb. Final _t_ is also sounded in _brut_, _déficit_, _dot_, _mat_,
_exact_, _fat_, _infect_, _intact_, _net_, _rapt_, _subit_, _tact_,
_toast_, _transit_, _zénith_, etc. It is not heard in _Jésus-Christ_,
though it is sounded in _le Christ_.

FOOTNOTES
[1] Some grammars and dictionaries give _ange de mer_, angel-fish,
as feminine, but it is an error; _ange_ is masculine in all its
acceptations.—(ACAD.)
[2] In the language of botany this word is sometimes used in the
masculine.—(ACAD.)
[3] In the sense of pirate, this word has no accent: _capre_.
[4] Some grammarians and lexicographers give _ébène_, in the figurative
sense of black color, as masculine, but it is an error; _ébène_ is
feminine even when used figuratively.—(ACAD.)
[5] Voltaire used this word in the feminine, in the sense of a small
sheet of paper; but it is contrary to etymology, and even to common
sense. The French Academy does not give this acceptation.
[6] When it means _forest_, its _e_ has a circumflex accent: _forêt_.
[7] The French Academy gives to _jujube_ (fruit) the feminine gender; but
it is contrary to general present usage.
[8] French mechanicians give to this noun, in the sense of _tackle_, the
masculine gender.
[9] This word has never in French the meaning of _room_, _apartment_, for
the transaction of business.
[10] _Ombre_, card game, is also spelt _hombre_.
[11] _Pâque_, or _Pâques_, Christian religion, is often used in the
plural, and is then feminine. _Pâque_, Jewish religion, is always
feminine, and never used in the plural.
[12] When it means a coin, it is also spelt _stater_.
TABLE OF IRREGULAR AND DEFECTIVE VERBS.
The Imperfect of the Indicative, the Conditional, the Imperative, and
the Imperfect of the Subjunctive, are wanting in this Table. These four
tenses are formed as follows:—
The imperfect of the indicative is regularly formed from the present
participle by changing _ant_ into _ais_, as: _parl-ant_, _je parl-ais_;
_finiss-ant_, _je finiss-ais_, &c.
The conditional has always the same root as the future; so that the first
person of the future being known, it is easy to form the conditional, as:
_je parlerai_, _je parlerai-s_; _je finirai_, _je finirai-s_.
The imperative is always regularly formed from the present of the
indicative, by suppressing the pronouns, as: _je parle_, imperative,
_parle_; except in the verbs _avoir_, _être_, and _savoir_. The third
person singular and plural of the imperative are always the same as in
the present of the subjunctive, and belong to that tense.
The imperfect of the subjunctive is always regularly formed from the
preterit indicative by adding _se_, etc., to the second person singular,
as: _tu parlas_, _que je parlas-se_; _tu finis_, _que je finis-se_; _tu
reçus_, _que je reçus-se_; _tu vendis_, _que je vendis-se_.
_Infinitive._ _Present _Past _Present._ _Indicative
participle._ participle._ Preterit._

FOOTNOTES

EXPLANATION OF THE SIGNS USED IN THIS WORK.
* Represents the liquid sounds of _gn_, _l_, or _ll_.
† Signifies that the _h_ is aspirated.
— Indicates the repetition of the same word. (—) Indicates the plural of
foreign and compound nouns when it is like the singular.
(—s) Indicates the plural of foreign nouns when it is formed by adding
_s_.
When the plural of foreign and compound nouns is formed by changing
the final letter or letters, the whole plural form is given. Thus,
_e.g._, (_Lazaroni_), plural of _Lazarone_; (_—-amiraux_), plural of
_vice-admiral_.
(_—s-—s_), or (_—s-—x_), or (_—x-—x_), or (_—x-—s_) Indicate the plural
of compound nouns when it is formed by adding _s_ or _x_ to each
component.
(_—s-—_) or (_—x-—_) Indicate the plural of compound nouns when it is
formed by adding _s_ or _x_ to the first component only.
(_—-—s_) or (_—-—x_) Indicate the plural of compound nouns when it is
formed by adding _s_ or _x_ to the second component only.
(_n.s._) Indicates foreign and compound nouns not used in the singular.
(_n.p._) Indicates foreign and compound nouns not used in the plural.
- Before final letters, points out the masculine termination, which
is to be changed in the feminine; as, _acti-f_, _-ve_, actif, active;
_act-eur_, _-rice_, acteur, actrice; _honteu-x_, _-se_, honteux, honteuse.
The long sound of the vowels is designated by a horizontal mark over the
vowel, thus: ā, ē, ī, ō, ū.
The short sound of the vowels is designated by a curved mark, thus: ă, ĕ,
ĭ, ŏ, ŭ. This mark seldom occurs but over the unaccented _e_. When there
is no mark over the other vowels, they may be considered as natural; that
is, as neither long nor short.
Words in parentheses serve to complete the sense of those words that
precede or follow them; or they refer to the object with which they are
connected, or indicate the art, trade, profession, etc., to which they
relate. They are given in English and in French.
Those words of which the pronunciation is quite irregular are noticed
in full; but those that are only partly irregular are noticed in their
irregularities only. Therefore, such words as _chiromancie_, _archétype_,
_équateur_, which are irregular in one syllable only, are noticed in that
syllable alone; as _ki-_, _-ké-_, _-koua-_.
As none but French spelling can give a correct idea of French
pronunciation, it is used throughout this dictionary, with the exception
of _ch_, which is rendered by _sh_, so that it may not be mistaken
for _k_; of _ou_, which is expressed by _oo_; and of _oi_, which is
represented by _oa_.
☉ Indicates obsolete French words. When found in the middle of lines, it
indicates that the French word is obsolete in the meaning before which it
is placed.
(ant.) Indicates obsolete English words.
When two or more French nouns of the same gender follow, their gender is
indicated after the last noun only.
The pronunciation of English words is indicated, in the English-French
Division, in the same manner as that of French words in the
French-English Division, and represented in _all_ cases by means of the
French spelling, with the exception of:
1st, _th_ hard, which is expressed by (th);
2nd, _th_ soft, ” ” (_th_);
3rd, _g_, when hard before _e_, _i_, or _y_, by (gh).

Updated editions will replace the previous one—the old editions will
be renamed.
Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright
law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works,
so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United
States without permission and without paying copyright
royalties. Special rules, set forth in the General Terms of Use part
of this license, apply to copying and distributing Project
Gutenberg™ electronic works to protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG™
concept and trademark. Project Gutenberg is a registered trademark,
and may not be used if you charge for an eBook, except by following
the terms of the trademark license, including paying royalties for use
of the Project Gutenberg trademark. If you do not charge anything for
copies of this eBook, complying with the trademark license is very
easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose such as creation
of derivative works, reports, performances and research. Project
Gutenberg eBooks may be modified and printed and given away—you may
do practically ANYTHING in the United States with eBooks not protected
by U.S. copyright law. Redistribution is subject to the trademark
license, especially commercial redistribution.

1.B. “Project Gutenberg” is a registered trademark. It may only be
used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See

Gutenberg™ electronic works if you follow the terms of this
agreement and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg™

1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (“the
Foundation” or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection
of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. Nearly all the individual
works in the collection are in the public domain in the United
States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
that you will support the Project Gutenberg™ mission of promoting
free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg™
works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
Project Gutenberg™ name associated with the work. You can easily
comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg™ License when
you share it without charge with others.
1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
other Project Gutenberg™ work. The Foundation makes no
representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
country other than the United States.
1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other
immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg™ License must appear
prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg™ work (any work
on which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” appears, or with which the
phrase “Project Gutenberg” is associated) is accessed, displayed,
performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and most
other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no restrictions
whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it under the terms
of the Project Gutenberg License included with this eBook or online
at www.gutenberg.org. If you
are not located in the United States, you will have to check the laws
of the country where you are located before using this eBook.
1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is
derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in
the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are
redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase “Project
Gutenberg” associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply
either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or
obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg™
trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is posted
with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any
additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms
will be linked to the Project Gutenberg™ License for all works
posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the
beginning of this work.
1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg™
License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg™.
1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
Gutenberg™ License.
1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including
any word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access
to or distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg™ work in a format
other than “Plain Vanilla ASCII” or other format used in the official
version posted on the official Project Gutenberg™ website
(www.gutenberg.org), you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense
to the user, provide a copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means
of obtaining a copy upon request, of the work in its original “Plain
Vanilla ASCII” or other form. Any alternate format must include the
full Project Gutenberg™ License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg™ works
unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
access to or distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
provided that:
• You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
the use of Project Gutenberg™ works calculated using the method
you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed
to the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, but he has
agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are
legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty
payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in
Section 4, “Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation.”
• You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg™
License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg™
works.
• You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of
any money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days of
receipt of the work.
• You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
distribution of Project Gutenberg™ works.
1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project
Gutenberg™ electronic work or group of works on different terms than
are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing
from the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the manager of
the Project Gutenberg™ trademark. Contact the Foundation as set
forth in Section 3 below.
1.F.
1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™
electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
cannot be read by your equipment.
1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the “Right
of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGE.
1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
without further opportunities to fix the problem.
1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you ‘AS-IS’, WITH NO
OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
remaining provisions.
1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
providing copies of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works in
accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the
production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg™
electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
or any Project Gutenberg™ work, (b) alteration, modification, or
additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any
Defect you cause.
Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
from people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.
Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification
number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.
The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website
and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact
Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread
public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.
Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.
Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.
This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
