Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Good Speech: An Introduction to English Phonetics The recent report of Sir Henry Newbolt's Committee on "The Teaching of English in England" contains, among much that is of pressing importance, an earnest plea for the cultivation of good speech, and it insists on the value of phonetics for attaining this end. It is satisfactory to know that this report has had an extensive sale; and among its readers there are probably many who have little idea of what "phonetics" means and how it can help them. They may be a little frightened at the technicalities with which many treatises on phonetics abound, and the script usually employed may seem to them a more formidable difficulty than it really is. A simple presentment of the principal features of our spoken language, based mainly on standard speech, but paying some attention to dialect sounds, will probably be welcome to many teachers and perhaps even to a wider public. The attempt has been made in the following pages to provide a popular introduction to what will prove an interesting field of study in which many more workers are needed. To speak clearly and well is a social duty; and it is more particularly the duty of the teacher. This book, from its very nature, can do no more than set the student on the right path; it is in no sense exhaustive.

The second edition of this distinguished textbook introduces undergraduates to the concepts, terminology and representations needed for an understanding of how English is pronounced around the world. Assuming no prior knowledge, this textbook guides the reader through the vocal tract and explains how the sounds of speech are made, offering an accessible and expanded introduction to areas including transcription, vowels and acoustic analysis. As far as possible, it uses naturally-occurring conversational speech so that readers are familiar with the details of everyday talk (and not just the careful pronunciations presented in dictionaries.) The book also includes a new concluding chapter that works through a piece of spoken data to show the reader how a more complete phonetic analysis can be conducted. Examples are taken from around the English-speaking world, including North America, Australia, New Zealand and varieties of British English. The book takes an open-minded approach to what sounds of English might be significant for making meaning, and highlights the significance of word meaning, morphology, sociolinguistics and conversational interaction in phonetic analysis.
