== More on Fausto Veranzio ==
Fausto Veranzio in 1595 published (in Venice) a dictionary called ''"Dictionarium quinque nobilissimarum Europae linguarum: Latinae, Italicae, Germanicae, Dalmatiae & Ungaricae"'' (Dictionary of Five Most Noble European Languages: The Latin, Italian, German, Dalmatian and Hungarian). In his dictionary he referred to his native language <ref>'''Note:''' It is important to ''mention'' that Fausto Veranzio's native Šibenik language is based on the old Croatian Chakavian. It also has [[Italian language|Italian]] from the Venetian dialect.</ref> as '''Dalmatian'''. [http://www.library.yale.edu/slavic/croatia/dictionary/1103079_m.jpg Front cover-'''link'''.]
In 1617, (then sixty-five years old) he implemented his design and tested the parachute by jumping from St Mark's Campanile in Venice. The 17th century ''Brooklyn Tidal Mill'' in Long Island (New York), is based on his design and is one of the few still standing mills in the [[New York|New York City]] area.
Today a Croatian Navy rescue ship bears the name ''Faust Vrančić''.
