Coles A Tract: On the Present State of English Pronunciation (Classic Reprint) at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Excerpt from A Tract: On the Present State of English Pronunciation I assume that a practical system of writing for ordinary use might be founded on such a phonetic; but I exhibited no scheme for this, and was there fore suspected of advocating that all books should be printed, and that everyone should write in the full phonetic as shown in my transcriptions, etc. This I am very far from thinking: but I had not gone so far as to work out any scheme, or even to have a decided preference for any one solution. I have, however, now added one or two examples of solutions (see App. H, p. 7 5) which may indicate the amount of change which I suppose would be found convenient in common use, and the effect of it to the eye in a cursive writing; and I have added a note on the subject, which will make my attitude intelligible.
