Extractions: PRETTYPREVOST, A. F. For the elder Pretorius see G. M, Theal, Compendium of the History and Geography of South Africa, 3rd ed. (London, 1878), and History of South Africa, vol. iv. [1834-1854] (London, 1893). For the younger Pretorius see vol. v. of the same series. PRETTY, a word usually applied in the sense of pleasing in appearance, without connoting those qualities which are described as beautiful or handsome. In Old English praettig meant tricky, cunning or wily, and is thus used to translate the Latin sagax, astutus, callidus,in a vocabulary of about 1000. Praett meant a trick, and this word is seen in many forms in Dutch, cf. the words prettig, sportive, part, trick. A connection has been suggested with the Greek irpaKrucos, irpaTTtiv, to do, make, through Latin practica, practice, performance; but the New English Dictionary rejects these, as also Celtic sources, as unfounded. From " cunning " to skilful, and thence to its use as a term of general appreciation as is so often used by Pepys, the development is easy. PREVARICATION, a divergence from the truth, equivocation, quibbling, a want of plain-dealing or straightforwardness, especially a deliberate misrepresentation by evasive answers, often used as a less offensive synonym for a lie. The Latin praevaricalio was specifically applied to the conduct in an action at law in which an advocate (praevaricator) in collusion with his opponent put up a bad case of defence. Praevari-care meant literally to walk with the legs very wide apart, to straddle, hence to walk crookedly, to stray from the direct road, varicus, straddling, being derived from varus, bow-legged, a word which has been connected etymologically with German quer, transverse, across, and English "queer."

Ve velike vetsine ceskych rodin jako vubec u vsech narodu zena jest onou strunou, ktera v harmonii s muzem a detmi udava nejmekci a nejlahodnejsi ton. Ji namnoze odkazany jsou duchovni stranky rodinneho zivota, ji sverena byva pravidlem vychova deti a zhusta take vychova muzova. Nezna, prozirava a moudra zena cini take neznym a uslechtilym muze, nemluvic ani o detech, ktere zejmena ve svem rozvijeni byvaji obycejne vetsim obrazem matcinym nez otcovym. Co nemuze detem podati skola a zvlaste co jim schazi, kdyz skolni brany za nimi jiz se zavrely, to ma doplnovati rozumna dvojice rodicu, ma jim dati ono dalsi dobre vychovani, ktere vedle skoly jest nemene dulezitym zakladem pro vsechen budouci zivot. Ale snahy a cinnost otcova nemuze se soustrediti na domov a na rodinu tak jako pusobeni matcino. Povolani otcovo rozptyluje pusobnost a usili jeho navenek, otec casto byva hostem doma a krb rodinny jest mu mnohdy onim kouzelnym mistem, kam utrmacen prichazi sklonit hlavu, aby si odpocinul. A tu moudra zena byva na svem vykazanem miste, tu jest kralovnou nemene dustojnou a zodpovednou nez zeny, ozdobene korunami. A zvlaste v uslechteni ducha opravdova matka vykonati muze divy. Videti to casto u vdovy, ktera bez opory muzovy prece vychovala nekolik ditek, a vsechny jsou sporadane, uhlazene, vzdelane a hodne, kdezto zase jinde neprozretelna matka a otec nedovede ucinit radnym clovekem ani jedinacka.
