Reseña del editor

Excerpt from A Manual of Pronunciation, for Practical Use in Schools and Families: Containing a Careful Selection of Words in the English Language Most Commonly Mispronounced, Together With Their Pronunciation as Given by the Best Authorities in England and America

Nothing so quickly or so certainly reveals the character of our culture and early associations as our speech. The persistence of habits formed in youth, especially bad habits of pronunciation, is well known, and the correction of such faults in adult life is a matter of considerable care and effort.

This manual has been prepared for practical use in the school room and for the use of families and individuals who value a correct pronunciation of the English language.
