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.

The Sounds of Language provides an accessible, general introduction to phonetics with a special emphasis on English.
Phonetics is the scientific study of sounds used in language- how
the sounds are produced, how they are transferred from the speaker
to the hearer and how they are heard and perceived. The Sounds of
Language provides an accessible, general introduction to phonetics
with a special emphasis on English. Focusing on the phonetics of
English, the first section allows students to get an overall view
of the subject. Two standard accents of English are presented- RP
(Received Pronunciation), the standard accent of England, and GA
(General American), the standard accent throughout much of North
America. The discussion is arranged so that students can read only
the RP or GA portions, if desired. Sixteen additional accents of
English spoken around the world are also covered to provide
students with wider international coverage.The author then moves on
to introduce acoustics phonetics in an accessible manner for those
without a science background. The last section of the book provides
a detailed discussion of all aspects of speech with extensive
examples from languages around the world.Containing
student-friendly features such as extensive exercises for
practising the sounds covered in each chapter; a glossary of
technical terms; instructions on how to write phonetic symbols; the
latest International Phonetic Alphabet chart and a detailed list of
English consonantal variants, The Sounds of Language provides an
excellent introduction to phonetics to students of linguistics and
speech pathology and students of English as a second language.
