Abstract
In a foreword in 1919 to the first Indian edition in English of Indian Home Rule (as many early English translations of Hind Swaraj were titled), Gandhi wrote: ‘if I had to revise it, there is only one word I would alter in accordance with a promise made to an English friend. She took exception to my use of the word ‘‘prostitute’’ in speaking of the Parliament. Her fine taste recoiled from the indelicacy of the expression.’1
