On taking up the work of translating a Moro grammar, the only book there was to follow, at least the only one that came to the hands of the undersigned, was a small, brief affair, called Gramatica de la Lengua Maguindanao ,by Jacinto Juanmarti, Jesuit. The work was undertaken with a view to learning something of Moro. The dialect of the Maguindanaos of the Cottabato district, and that of the Lanaos of the lake region is quite similar, and it is believed that the grammar of the former, treated of in these pages, will suffice for the latter. The vocabulary of one is slightly different, however, from that of the other. In the last paragraph of the preface the author states that in the final i)ages of the book there is a vocabulary of Spanish, Moro, and Malay. For this, one of English, Maguindanao, and Malay will be substituted in the translation. The translator is well aware that this pamphlet is not free from errors, and the apology offered is that he has put his best efforts on it with the idea, and the hope, that it may be improved upon by some one else. A few notes have been added by the undersigned. C. C. SMITH, Captain, 14th Cavalry, Translator, Camp Overton, Mind., P. I.
