1 In the Medical School at Cairo, founded by Clot Bey in 1826 and transferred to Qasr el-'Ayni in 1837, all lectures were either given in or translated into Arabic, until its reorganization in 1898, when English was made the language of instruction.

2 An English-Arabic medical dictionary by Dr. Khalīl Khayrallāh was published in Cairo in 1892 (see al-Hilāl, vol. i, 287)Google Scholar and a second by Dr. Ibrāhīm ManṢūr a few months later (ibid., ii, 63). The famous traveller at-Tuūnisī (d. 1857) compiled a dictionary of medical terms, now in Paris (Bibl. Nat., Fonds arabe 4641), but it seems never to have been published (Zaydān, op. cit., 206–7).
