* These five words have the 4 so strongly aspirated that it was rarely we could pronounce
them to the satisfaction of the natives.
T h e ir language, upon the whole, is not unpleasing, and it has none o f the harsh Chinese
sounds. T h e natives have a remarkable facility in imitating our sounds, and they in general
speak m a very loud tone o f voice.
