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.

Originally published in 1921, this book was intended for
non-Scottish students of Scottish literature as a guide for
recitation and declamation of Scottish pieces. The text is divided
into three parts: the first gives the phonetic symbols for the
sounds of modern Scots, the second contrasts Scots grammar with
standard English usage and gives illustrations from Scottish
literature, and the third contains extracts from modern Scots
writers with phonetic transcriptions on the facing page. This book
will be of value to anyone with an interest in the pronunciation of
Scottish literature or in Scottish phonetics more generally.
