Excerpt from The Pronunciation of Spanish in Spain and America: An Aggressive Study of the Sounds of the Spanish Language, With Directions for Producing Them Accurately
This book is intended for the class-room as well as for those who are obliged to study without the help of a teacher.
An experience of more than twenty years has proved that a preliminary drill on sounds, such as is here offered, will save the teacher and the learner much time, labor and vexation.
Each letter is treated separately, and examples are given in which it occurs in combination with letters sounded as in English or with those that have been previously explained. In this way the student is led to master one difficulty at a time.
In the case of sounds not existing in English, full directions are given for adjusting the organs of speech.
The results of the latest phonetic researches are here presented without their technicalities.
Among the various dialects of Spain, the Castilian has become the literary language. Its spelling and pronunciation are regulated by the Spanish Academy. The main points of difference between the language actually spoken and the prescribed best or book pronunciation, are also given, and the peculiarities of the language of the American colonies of Spain are carefully noted.
