P Fit be true, that the most refined and exquifite pleasure of the judicious and well-bred, is that of being able to communicate their thoughts to one another in a clear, exact and pleafing manner; it is no lefs certain, that whatever may contribute to extend that communication from one language to another, to render it familiar, and to make it by that means both agreeable and useful, deferves their attention, and even their approbation. Such is the end propofed in this Work: And it is to help the English to a happy facility of the French Tongue, that it appears in print. A 2 |
