6.2.05 A couple of websites attribute the word Ollendorffian meaning "written in the artificial and overly formal style of foreign-language phrase books'in the language of foreign phrase-books" to this Ollendorff. However I am under the impression that word derived from a different Ollendorff, Paul Ollendorff of Paris: French publisher of foreign phrase-books eg Lucien Rigaud’s Dictionnaire D' Argot Moderne. Does anyone know?
