[' In the Makali, as in all the languages of this part of the Western Coast, the letters r,f, and v are wanting ; as 

 also th, whether hard or soft. Mr. Swan has employed the r following the vowel a to indicate the Italian sound, 

 as in father, and after ai, &c., to represent the neuter vowel u, as in the English but, and the French je. The letter 

 V in pronouncing English words is changed to b or m. These last are convertible letters, as are also d and n. Th, 

 when it occurs in the text or the vocabulary, is to be understood as an aspirated t, as in the French the. — G. G. ]
