these examples, modeled by native speakers, with pauses
provided so that you can repeat them. The book and CDs
also include exercises, quizzes, and practice materials to
help you make sure you are hearing and producing the
sounds correctly.
As the pronunciation of grammatical markers is vital
for understanding, there are sections entitled "Usage
Tips" throughout the materials. Pay particular attention to
these sections. If you are a beginner, or have trouble mak-
ing yourself understood, do these sections first, and con-
tinue to practice them.
Do not be discouraged if at first you do not hear the
differences in sounds. You can train yourself to hear
them. Follow the instructions for making the sounds;
check yourself by looking in the mirror; tape-record your
voice. Practice making the differences and you will begin
to hear them.
The pronunciation symbols used by
The American
Heritage Dictionary, The Random House Dictionary, The
Merriam- Webster Dictionary, The Oxford Dictionary,
and
Longman's Dictionary
appear below, so that you may use
this book as a pronunciation guide for any new word you
look up in your own dictionary.

The book and CDs are coordinated so that you can use
them separately or together. To improve your understand-
ing of English spelling and your recognition of written
words, listen to the CDs while looking at the words and
sentences in the book. When you listen to the recording
without the book, simply repeat the examples during the
pauses provided for writing, and do the written exercises
later.
The symbols used to represent each sound are based on
those of the International Phonetic Alphabet. Because
many English vowel sounds are combinations of sounds,
they are represented here by combinations of symbols.
This is intended to help the learner form these sounds by
combining their individual parts.
