VOCABULARY.

Volapük words are printed in heavy type.

Words which have the same spelling and the same meaning, both in Volapük and in English, are printed in ITALIC CAPITALS.

Words of the same meaning which happen to be next each other in the alphabetical arrangement are bracketed $\scriptstyle {\left\{{\begin{matrix}\ \\\ \end{matrix}}\right.}$

Many derivativs, formed by adding syllables, are placed under the radical, and abbreviated by dropping the radical. See remarks on page 46.

When an English word is defined by several Volapük words the distinction between these must be found by looking them up in succession.
