A guide to English pronunciation ![Includes sound files!](../../../../images/Paul%20Joyce/soundmin2.gif)
Welcome to the online English pronunciation guide, based on Rebecca Dauer's book "ACCURATE ENGLISH A Complete Course in Pronunciation" and the generous contribution of The University of Iowa. The Sounds of English are shown based on examples, due to that English is not phonetic, such as Spanish and German, for example, in which there is a clear correspondence between the writing and the produced Sounds.
This pronunciation guide is subdivided into sections on English consonants, and English vowels. By clicking on the links in the tables below, you will access pages that explain the associated Sounds, accompanied by sound files to help you practice the formation of the Sounds.
