Don Rulison for proofreading our typescript in Mr. We wish also to acknowledge our indebtedness to Mr. Those interested in a more detailed discussion of Hmong phonology are directed to his forthcoming Linquistic Diversity and National Unity in %ailand. In particular we thank him for providing the Introduction. Smalley for bringing this dictionary to our attention and his assistance in bringing it to publication. With this publication the dictionary becomes available to a wider audience. The results were first compiled in a mimeographed version for use by a few friends, colleagues and other interested persons. Heimbach has spent a number of years among theWhite Hmong of Northern Thailand and collected his data in the process of learning the language. This dictionary, too, is the work of a missionary who is following a long and distinguished tradition of missionary scholarship. We are gratified to see our objectives in providing basic linguistic materials so soon being realized. The two together will surely give impetus to Meo-Yao comparative studies. Besides the value it has in its own right for students and scholars, it has an additional special value as a companion work to the Yao-Enqlish Dictionary of Lombard and Purnell.
