Fülszöveg


From the Foreword by A C Gimson
"There can be little doubt that on the
grounds of general influence it is the
British or American styles of pro-
nunciation which provide the most
appropriate models to follow. It is for
this reason that Mr Windsor Lewis's
Pronouncing Dictionary, showing both
types of pronunciation in a carefully
selected word list, is particularly
valuable.
He has not sought to show the whole
complexity of pronunciation even
within the traditional British and
American standards, but has wisely
chosen to recommend only one form for
the foreign speaker to adopt. Too often,
English dictionaries persist in showing
pronunciations which are seriously
archaic. The forms given by Mr^^

From the Foreword by A C Gimson
"There can be little doubt that on the

nunciation which provide the most

Pronouncing Dictionary, showing both
types of pronunciation in a carefully
selected word list, is particularly

He has not sought to show the whole

English dictionaries persist in showing
pronunciations which are seriously
archaic. The forms given by Mr^^
Windsor Lewis consistently ^^^^
reflect usage; ^^^
This is a unique dictionary specially prepared
for users of English as a foreign language.
Using the alphabet of the International
Phonetic Association in a slightly
simplified form of Professor A C Gimson's
transcription, it represents the fluent,
spontaneous everyday usage of educated
speakers in Britain and America whose
speech is least restricted as regards
geographical region or social grouping.
Phonetic transcriptions are given for about
24 000 words. The inclusion of common
affixes like -able, -ability, -ation, -merit,
extra- and fore- gives the user an even
larger vocabulary reference. Place and
personal names and a selection of
common abbreviations are also included.
With its particular emphasis on an up to
date coverage of the vocabulary of everyday
affairs the dictionary gives information on
hundreds of items - notably compound
words - which are either neglected in
other works of reference, or have not yet
been included in them.
Special attention has been given to ease
and speed of use. The presentation is
virtually self-explanatory. Every word is
given a separate, strictly alphabetic.entry.
If a word has more than one spelling, full
information is given at each place of entry.
No cross references are used. All
recommended forms of pronunciation for
both British and American English are
given in bold type. Widely used British and
American alternative forms are also
included in medium weight type.
A full introductory section explains in
detail the arrangement of the contents, and
comments on trends of change in
pronunciation, word rhythmic patterns,
stress notation and other relevant topics.
A key to the symbols, a ready-reference
summary of the arrangements of the
entries, and diagrams of the British and
American vowel and diphthong systems are
instantly accessible on the end papers. Vissza
