Bergmato BOOKS A Signet Reference Book Published by The New American Library, New York and Toronto The New English Library Limited, London The purpose of this dictionary is to simplify ftl much as possible and not to burden the reader with rules and exceptions of grammar, syntax, different word meanings and pronunciation. ; r, a remark about the transliteration i^ nt\ Generally the con- tinental pronunciation of Roman spelling v. in order to con- vey the sounds of words belonging t< .ties with non-Latin Alphabets. Only for Russian the sound of the letter X which is guttural, like ch in the name of the composer Bach, kh was adopted as commonly used. Stress always the accented letter in Russian and the apostrophized syllable in Greek. © Copyright 1968, by Bergman Publishers AH rights reserved.
