Key to the Pronunciations This dictionary uses a simple respelling system to show how entries are pronounced, using the symbols listed below. Generally, only the first of two or more identical headwords will have a pronunciation respelling. Where a derivative simply adds a common suffix such as -less, -ness, or -ly to the headword, the derivative may not have a pronunciation respelling unless some other element of the pronunciation also changes. a as in hat /hat/, fashion /"fasH@n/, carry /"karE/ A as in day /dA/, rate /rAt/, maid /mAd/, prey /prA/ ä as in lot /lät/, father /"fäTH@r/, barnyard /"bärn%yärd/ b as in big /big/ cH as in church /cH@rcH/, picture /"pikcH@r/ d as in dog /dôg/, bed /bed/ e as in men /men/, bet /bet/, ferry /"ferE/ E as in feet /fEt/, receive /ri"sEv/ e(@)r as in air /e(@)r/, care /ke(@)r/ @ as in about /@"bout/, soda /"s Od@/, mother /"m@TH@r/, person /"p@rs@n/ f as in free /frE/, graph /graf/, tough /t@f/ g as in get /get/, exist /ig"zist/, egg /eg/ h as in her /h@r/, behave /bi"hAv/ i as in fit /fit/, guild /gild/, women /"wimin/ I as in time /tIm/, guide /gId/, hire /hI(@)r/, sky /skI/ i(@)r as in ear /i(@)r/, beer /bi(@)r/, pierce /pi(@)rs/ j as in judge /j@j/, carriage /"karij/ k as in kettle /"ketl/, cut /k@t/, quick /kwik/ l as in lap /lap/, cellar /"sel@r/, cradle /"krAdl/ m as in main /mAn/, dam /dam/ 84

Key to the Pronunciations
This dictionary uses a simple respelling system to show how entries
are pronounced, using the symbols listed below. Generally, only the first
of two or more identical headwords will have a pronunciation respelling.
Where a derivative simply adds a common suffix such as
-less
,
-ness
,
or
-ly
to the headword, the derivative may not have a pronunciation
respelling unless some other element of the pronunciation also
changes.
