Arab. “Finjál” systematically repeated for “Finján” pronounced in Egypt “Fingán:” see vol. viii. 200. [The plural “Fanájíl,” pronounced Fanágíl, occurs in Spitta Bey’s Contes Arabes Modernes, p. 92, and in his Grammar, p. 26, the same author states that the forms “Fingán” and “Fingál” are used promiscuously.—St.]
