An Introduction to English Phonetics
Immediately I had agreed to write a book with the title ‘Introduction
to the Phonetics of English’, I realised that describing the phonetics of
‘English’ is problematic because English is so phonetically heterogeneous. So the result is a book that is more about phonetics, with illus-
trations from around the English-speaking world. It is not a complete description of any one variety; rather, my intention has been to try to
provide enough of a descriptive phonetic framework so that readers can describe their own variety in reasonable detail.
