INTRODUCTION.

A long experience as teacher of Articulation and Pro-


nunciation in one of our leading schools of Elocution
and Oratory has afforded opportunity for discovering in
what directions are to be found the principal orthoepical

faults, not only of public readers and speakers, but of all


classes of persons, and in what particulars most assistance
is needed.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES.

Accuracy, clearness, and conciseness have been the


guiding principles compilation of this manual. The
in the

latest unabridged editions of Webster and Worcester,

including their supplements and valuable lists of geo-


graphical, biographical, classical, and scriptural names,
luive been thoughtfully consulted. The words most liable
to be mispronounced have been carefully selected, and
their pronunciation hasbeen set forth in the clearest and
most unmistakable manner.
4 INTRODUCTION.

IMPORTANCE OF A KNOWLEDGE OF THE ELEMENTARY


SOUNDS.
No person can be sure of the pronunciation of a word
as found in the dictionaries without possessing a knowledge
of the elementary sounds of the language. These sounds,
in turn, depend upon a knowledge of the meaning and use
of the diacritical signs. The following table will serve to
show the system of notation employed in this book, and
also the systems employed by Webster and Worcester.
Simple key-words have been chosen, such as are familiar
to every English-speaking person. The three words at the
end of the list, are, perhaps, exceptions. These are used
to represent sounds heard in the pronunciation of certain
classes of foreign words which are occasionally met with
in books, newspapers, and magazines. For the peculiar
sounds here employed, we have no English equivalents.
The student desiring information or instruction on these
few sounds, will find, in almost every community, persons
of linguistic culture, or those of foreign birth and educa-
tion, who will be pleased to give the needed help.

EQUIVALENTS.
In Webster's "Key to Pronunciation," and in Worcester's
" Marked
Key to the Letters," other markings are em-
ployed than those found in the annexed table. It will be
observed that these are simply equivalents, and do not
represent additional sounds. The o in what, for example,
represents the sound of short o ; the e in there, represents
INTRODUCTION. 5
the sound of a in fare ; the i in police is an equivalent for
the e in mete, etc.These characters are employed by the
lexicographers to economize space by avoiding the respel-
ling of the word. Worcester, in his supplement, has
introduced a new marking for u as in annual. This sound
being simply the obscure long u, without accent, no place
has been given it in our table.

DIACRITICAL MARKS.

As the pronunciation of this volume is intended to


conform to that of the unabridged editions of Webster
and Worcester, it is proper that the diacritical signs
should also conform, so far as possible, to those employed
by these eminent lexicographers. Accordingly, in all
cases where they agree in the use of the same signs to rep-
resent the same sounds, like signs have been adopted in
thisvolume. When they differ, those markings have been
chosen that seem best suited to the case.
The tendency of the times is toward fewer diacritical

works on orthoepy, in the new


signs, hence, in all the later
dictionaries, and in the supplements and revisions of the
old standard works, the authors and revisers depend more

upon a simple and careful respelling of the word than


upon the use of a complicated system of notation. By re-
and doubtful parts of the word,
spelling only the difficult
and by other abbreviated processes, little is lost in space,
and much is gained in simplicity and accuracy.

INTRODUCTION. f
REMARKS ON THE SOUNDS, WITH CAUTIONS AND
SUGGESTIONS.
1. As most of the sounds are generally uttered in a
correct manner, it will be
necessary to refer to those only
that are most liable to incorrect use.
2. The music of speech depends so largely upon the
vowel sounds that especial care is needed in the manner of
uttering the vowel element in the large classes of words
represented by the following key-words from our table:
mete, met, pine, pin, out.
fate, fat, fare, Guard especially
against those harsh, discordant sounds produced by the
wide, flat mouth, with teeth close together, and the muscles
of the throat tightly tensioned. The faults here referred
to prevail less in the Southern than in the Northern States.
3. The vowel sound in fall (broad a) is often incorrectly
changed to short o, in such words as taught, caught, fought,
thought, water, etc.
4. The vowel sound in fare is, in some localities, often
made a as heard in farrier, with the a prolonged.
like short
5. The vowel sound in fast, when properly made, is a
rich musical sound. It is heard chiefly in monosyllables

ending mjf,ft,ss,st, sk, sp,nce, nt, and in derivations from


these words. It is longer and more decided than the unac-
cented a in soda, idea, sofa. The sound is in strict har-
mony with Worcester's vowel of the same marking, and
with Webster's vowel marked with a period over the letter
when this character is employed to represent the vowel
sounds in monosyllables and in accented syllables. It
should not be corrupted into short a, as in fat.
g INTRODUCTION.

6. The o sound is, in this volume, employed


in flora,
to represent the obscure sound of o when it either forms
or terminates an unaccented syllable. Its place in a grad-
uated scale of sounds is between intermediate a, as in fast,
and Italian a, as in far. It is in strict harmony with
Webster's vowel of the same marking, and with Worces-
ter'svowel marked with a period underneath, when they
are found in thesame situation. TliU sound is here given
a fixed character, while the corresponding sounds of
Webster and Worcester are variable.
Webster says of this a that it " has properly a brief
sound of Italian a, as in Cuba, America, amuse ; but in
familiar speech, it is almost always so slighted and obscured
as to be undistinguishable from the neutral vowel, or u in
urn." Instead of making it Italian a, he uniformly gives
it the sign of intermediate a at the end of a word (see
comma, dogma, era, gala, mica}, and leaves it unmarked at
the beginning or in the middle of a word (see abound,
amuse, bombazine, decalogue). It is believed that the

thoughtful student will approve the giving of a distinct


place in the table to unaccented a, thus distinguishing
between the sounds of a in cast and in comma, according to
Webster's marking, and between terminal a in stamina,
and that broad range of a sounds represented by the key-
words liar, palace, courage, abbacy, in Worcester's table.
7. The sound of e in her must not be confounded with
u in/ur.
8. The sound of short o should not be allowed to merge
INTRODUCTION'. 9
into broad a in such words as dog, on, God, long, off, soft,

thong, throng, but should be given the short o sound with a


long quantity.
9. Webster and Worcester regard the sound of o in
corn as an equivalent for broad a, as in caw. As the letter
r greatly modifies all the vowels that immediately precede
it,especially those having long quantity, this sound has
been given a separate place in the table. The long a
modified by r, becomes the a in/are, and, by most orthoepists,
is given a distinct place in the table of sounds. The o of
note is, by Bell, distinguished from the o in ore. So the o
in torn is, byjnost Americans, sounded iffllike the a of tail.

The English, Scotch, and Irish, preserve the broad a sound


more fully in this class of words than Americans do, but,
according to Webster, the o in the noun form is, in England,
sometimes sounded like long o, and sometimes like broad a,
depending upon its meaning. This is, to say the least,
confusing. Perhaps the increasing attention .now given
to phonetics will result in a more systematic and satisfac-

tory table of vowel sounds. In the meantime, those' that


prefer may give to words like lord, form, horse, scorn, the
fu\lbroad a sound.while othersmay modify_thevqwel element.
10. After the sounds of r and sh, the long u, as in rude,
j.

shute, changed 1o long oo ; but after j and ch, the sound


is

of long u is retained, as in jute, chew, but care should bell


taken not to prolong the vowel in the utterance.
11 Worcester marks the o in move with the caret, but
doubles the marking in mood. When he respeils the
JO INTRODUCTION.

word he uses the single vowel with its appropriate char-


acter.
12. In this book, always sound ou as in out, not as in
ghoul nor as in soul. Make the initial sound of this

diphthong Italuin a, not short a.

13. The letter g must be sounded as in get. When


soft g intended, the letter j is generally employed to
is

represent the pronunciation.


14. The letter r is smooth when it follows a vowel, as in
car, her, nor, fur, and vibrant or trilled when it precedes
the vowel, as in thrill, crath, break. Young elocutionists
are apt to overdo the trill, using it often where it should
not be used, and intensifying it where it should be used
lightly.
15. Do not sound like z in the column of phonetic
analysis.
16. Do not mistake the vocal th, as in than for the
aspirate th, as in tliin.

17. Do not sound ch like th, or k.


IS. The letter z following t becomes ,
as in Metz.
19. Persons who are unable to make the German ch
should use the sound of k, a sound frequently employed in
the dictionaries. (See Richter.)
20. French n (marked n) simply nasalizes the pre-

ceding vowel. It is heard in the English word #>ng.

Prolong the vowel, giving it a strong nasal quality, and


stop before the tongue rises to the roof of the mouth for
the ng, and the ear will readily detect the sound intended.
INTRODUCTION. H
Webster represents the sound by ng. Worcester employs
ng in the body of his dictionary, but substitutes A in the
supplement.
21. If the student will sound the vowel in ooze, and,
without changing the mouth position, attempt to sound
long e, he will produce a sound closely approaching French
u. Worcester employs the u in his supplement and in the
pronunciation of geographical and biographical names.
Webster employs u in the pronunciation of geographical
and biographical names, but not in his supplement. Both
substitute long oo for that character in the body of the

dictionary.

UNACCENTEP TERMINATIONS.
22. Train the organs of articulation to strike the unac-
cented vowels clearly and distinctly, and yet gently. A
secondary accent sharpens the vowel slightly.
23. The unaccented terminal syllables ar, er, ir, or, ur,
yr, are, by most persons, pronounced with no perceptible
difference, all being sounded like ur. Although some
orthoepists indorse this usage, it is better to make a dis-
tinction.
Whil* it is
hardly to be expected that persons of mature
years who have always pronounced these syllables alike,
will take the trouble to educate their organs of speech to
make this distinction, children whose organs are pliable,
and whose pronunciation is in the formative period, should
be diligently trained to do so. All young men and women who
12 INTRODUCTION.

aspire to an elegant and cultured speech, all young clergy-


men who aim to teach pure morals through pure English,
and especially all teachers of reading and elocution, should
practice upon words terminating in the above syllables
until they can make the distinctions with ease and

grace, and without any show of pedantry or affectation.


The ar is the same as heard in tar, the vowel
being made
obscure by the absence of accent and softened by the r.
The er is the same as heard in her, the vowel being very
short, soft, and quite obscure, being closely blended with
ther.
The and yr are identical with er.
ir

The is the same as heard in nor, the vowel


or being
short, soft, and obscure, and leaning toward ur. (See 9.)
The wr is that heard in fur, and can scarcely be mis-
taken. It is the sound toward which the others strongly

tend in the mouths of most persons. The vowel is almost


inseparable from the r, and is, by some orthoepists called
the natural vowel, being mad 2 with so little effort of the
articulatory organs.
24 (-ul). Short a, obscure, as in metal, not metul, nor
mettle pedal, not pedal, nor peddle.
;

25. (-as). Short a, obscure, tending slightly toward


short u, as in Judas, upas.
26. (-ain). Short i, as in captain, fountain, certain.

27. (-ard). Italian a, obscure, tending slightly toward


vrd, as in laggard, niggard, awkward.
28. (-ate). In verbs, long a, slightly obscured, as col-
INTRODUCTION. jg

culate, regulate, articulate, vacate, usually having a slight


secondary accent.
In nouns and adjectives, long a, very obscure, tending
toward short as in primate, chromate, chocolate, delicate,
e,

intricate, articulate, ultimate.


29. (-any). Long a, obscure, tending toward short e,
as in miscellany, castellany, when it has the secondary
accent. Some
orthoepists give it the sound of short e.
Without accent, as in company, litany, botany, the a has
the usual sound, as in flora.
30. (-ary). Coalescent a, as in fare, tending toward
short e, when it has the secondary accent, as in capillary,
customary, ordinary. Some orthoepists give it the sound of
short e. When the accent falls on the antepenult, as in ple-
nary, granary, primary, the a is the same as in flora.
31. (-el). Short e, when sounded, as in level, vessel, travel;

often silent, as in chattel, hazel, shekel, shovel.


32. (-en). Short e, when sounded,
as in chicken, hyphen,
kitchen. More frequently silent, as in heaven, even, given.
33. (-ery). Short e, when it has the accent, either pri-

mary or secondary, as in very, monastery, millinery.


Coalescent e, as in her, when without accent, as in mystery,
battery, slavery.
34. (-il). Short i, and generally sounded as in cavil,

civil, fossil, pencil. Silent in a few words, nsevil, weevil, devil.


35. (-in). Short i, generally sounded, as in cabin,
satin, matin. Silent in a few words, as basin, raisin, cousin,
ravin.
14 INTRODUCTION.

36. (-ioe). No
broad general rule can be formulated.
The t
frequently short in chemical terms, as bromine,
is

chlorine, benzoline ; also iu other words when the accent


falls on the penult It is often long when the accent falls
on the antepenult, as crystalline, turpentine, serpentine.
In words derived from the French, the i often takes the
sound of long e, as guillotine, quarantine, ravine.
37. (-ile). Lake the ine termination, no general rule
can be laid down. Accent on the penult often makes the
t short, as fertile, reptile, hostile, and on the antepenult,

often makes it long, as reconcile, camomile.


38. (-ida). In chemical terms, as bromide, iodide,
sulphuride, Webster usually employs the short i, and
Worcester the long i.

39. (-ite). Long i is most frequent, especially in


mineralogical terms.
40. (-on). Short o, leaning strongly toward short t*.

It often takes the sound of short u. When preceded by c,

ck, s, t, the vowel isgenerally suppressed.


41 (-ort). Like urt in liverwort, spearwort, and simi-
lar botanical terms.
42. (-oth). Short o, leaning toward short u, as in
mammoth, behemoth.
43. (-ony). Long o, tending toward short u, as in har-
mony, symphony.
44. (-ory). Long o, closely blending with r.and tend-
ing toward short u, as in cursory, history.
46. (-urej Long u, clipped and softened, as in nature,
INTRODUCTION. 15

culture, future, verdure. Avoid the sharp long u of the


pedant as you would the uncultured ur (na-cAwr, ver-jur)
of the rustic.
ACCENT OF FOREIGN WORDS.
In the pronunciation of many foreign words, especially
those of French origin, Worcester regards the syllables as

having equal stress, and omits the marks of accent.


Webster usually indicates the accent. See chalet, chignon^
croquette, etude, fichu. Where a choice is allowed between
an anglicized form of pronunciation, and a foreign form,
the English form is usually given the preference, especially
if the word is one in common use.

PLAN AND PURPOSE OF THE BOOK,


Each page in the body of the book is divided into three
columns.
The FIRST COLUMN gives the word, in clear, bold-face
type, easily caught by the eye, without mark or division,
just as we find it in books, newspapers, and magazines.
The character (*), frequently found in this column,
means " see Appendix," and implies that there are two or
more forms of pronunciation recognized by Webster and
Worcester. The form that seems to have the greater
weight of authority is the one given in the body of the
book. Other forms that have good sanction will be found
in the Appendix. Such forms as have little authority are
omitted. When Webster and Worcester differ in the

pronunciation of geographical terms, Lippincott's Pro-


16 INTRODUCTION.

nouncing Gazetteer of the World has frequently beeik


consulted to assist in determining which pronunciation
shall go into the body of the book. The same word often
represents several parts of sjxjech. When the pronuncia-
tion is unchanged the word is given but once; when it

changes with the grammatical use of the word, the several


forms of pronunciation are given, accompanied by letters
indicating the part of speech represented. A
list of the

abbreviations employed in this volume will be found on

page 17.
The SECOND COLUMN gives the pronunciation in the
simplest possible manner. Many persons are not familiar
with the diacritical signs employed in dictionaries and
books of pronunciation, and for that reason the orthography
and general appearance of the word are preserved as fully
as possible. The number of syllables and the place of
the accent are clearly marked. Changes of spelling and
diacritical signs are employed only where there is a proba-

bility of the pronunciation being mistaken. Such endings


as tious, clous, ceous, tion, cion, sion, tons, foiw, phy, etc., are

uniformly represented by the simple and regular forms,


shtis, shun, tus, lus,fy, etc.
The TFIIRD COLUMN represents a close phonetic analysis
of the word. Itbe found of great value to all stu-
will
dents of phonics, and to those that are familiar with
diacriticalmarks it will serve to represent more exactly
the pronunciation of the word. Every vowel is marked ;
every silent letter is omitted every accent, primary and
;
INTRODUCTION. 17

secondary, is noted, except where the secondary is not


deemed sufficiently strong to demand a sign ;
and the
largest liberty is taken with the spelling in order to repre-
sent in the most accurate manner the pronunciation
intended. Every letter and every digraph in this column
must be sounded. Every character must receive the sound
assigned to it in the table. S must not be sounded like z,
nor g like j, nor ch like sh or k. The figures refer to the
paragraphs of the same number in the Introduction.

ADAPTATION.
Thepractice of consulting a dictionary is not readily
be made an essential jmrt of
acquired, and should, therefore,
school work, until, by frequent repetition, it becomes
habitual. The size of the larger dictionaries often forbids
their use by younger pupils. This volume will be found

very convenient for either study or reference, and is


adapted alike to the wants of public and private schools,
and to the needs of the general student.
As difficulties in the spelling frequently accompany
difficulties in pronunciation, this book may be used by
advanced classes in both branches. Most teachers will
readily find means of adapting it to the double purpose
named. To some the following suggestions may be of
value: Have the pupil rule his blank-book or paper for
two columns if the page is narrow, or for four columns if

the page is wide. The teacher will then dictate a. column


of words from this book, which the pupil will carefully
spell by writing in the first column of the blank-book.
This constitutes not only a valuable spelling exercise, but
also an exercise in pronunciation, for the pupil's knowledge
of the sound of the word is both
strengthened and made
more exact by the teacher's dictation.
The pupil will then proceed to write the pronunciation
in the second column of his blank-book. If he has been
made acquainted with the use of diacritical marks, he
(should follow the plan of the third column of this book.
If he has not thoroughly mastered them, he had l>etter
INTRODUCTION. jg

employ the method adopted in the second column of this


volume. The examination and correction of the work by the
teacher may follow the usual methods employed in the school.
As it is possible for the pupil to write correctly the
pronunciation of a word, and yet not be able to pronounce
it
orally, the teacher should have the class give back the
words to him sufficiently often to assure him that they can
correctly interpret the signs they employ.
Teachers and school superintendents will find this
volume very convenient for the purpose of making up
lists of test-words for examination in pronunciation and

spelling.
