The 18th edition of Daniel Jones's classic work is the definitive guide to contemporary English pronunciation. This new and fully updated edition contains over 230,000 pronunciations of words, names and phrases. In addition, it includes lively essays on aspects of pronunciation by leading experts in the field, a phonetics and phonology glossary and notes explaining the relationship between spellings and sounds.

This is a complete basic course in English phonetics and phonology. Since its first publication, this course has established itself as the most practical, comprehensive text in the field and become widely used in universities and other HE institutions. This fourth edition takes into account recent developments in the teaching of phonology. It includes updated references, fuller coverage of intonation, and a new chapter on different varieties of English. Each chapter includes notes on further reading, discussion of the more challenging issues, written exercises and, where appropriate, suggestions for teachers. Accompanying audio and a full answer key are also provided. Audio files, additional exercises and other supporting material are available online.
