VOCABULARY AND INDEX OF THE ORMURI LANGUAGE. 



Note. — In this Vocabulary, which also serves as an Index of all Ormuri words 

 occurring in the body of the work, the order of words is based on the alphabetical 

 order of the consonants, without any regard to the vowels. The latter come into 

 consideration only in cases in which the same consonant or consonants are followed 

 or separated by different vowels. Thus, the different words containing the conso- 

 nants pt will be found in the succession pat, pait, and put. All words beginning with 

 vowels (whether preceded by 'ain or not) are arranged together at the commencement 

 of the \'ocabulary, their mutual order being determined by their consonants. 



The following, therefore, is the alphabetical order followed in this Vocabulary : — 

 Vowels {a, e, i, o, u), h, c, d, d, (k, 8, /, g, y, h, h, j, k, x, I, m, n, n, p, q, r, r, s, s, 

 ?., s, s, §r, t, t, t, h, 9, w, y, z, z, z, z, z.

 with the object of a transitive verb, 

 in this case being employed only 

 when the noun is not definite. We 

 may perhaps compare the vowels 

 a, e, and i used in Kurd, as a post- 

 positive article, GIP. I, ii, 274, or 

 with Av. aeva-, Prs. ya-e-wahdat. In
