تلخیص

officer of British East India Company. He was posted in 1843 at Bombay
where he acquired a working knowledge in Hindi and Sanskrit Later, he
was transferred to Hyderabad Sindh as a Deputy Collector and within a
span of one and a half year he developed a substantial command over
Sindhi language which led to his compilation of a basic dictionary and
grammar of Sindhi. Stack's first academic work is "A Grammar of Sindhi
Language". This gainfully provided a fertile ground to Dr. Ernest Trumpp
and other native linguistic scholars to improve upon Sindhi grammar.
Stack's book of Sindhi grammar was completed in 1847 and was printed
and published in 1849 from the American Mission Press, Bombay.
Captain George had arrived in India in, the early period of the British rule

Sanskrit, Urdu and other related languages. As Deputy Collector of
Hyderabad in Sindh, he learnt Sindhi language and with the assistance
of local scholars compiled English Sindhi Dictionary and Sindhi Grammar.
