  • SPOKEN ENGLISH – THE ROLE OF ACCENT IN IT.
  •  YOU CARRY YOUR CASTE ON YOUR TONGUE.
  • THE ONE & ONLY METHOD OF CHASTE ACCENT IS LOUD RECITATION OF THE WORDS TWICE A DAY.

Pl read, reread, and reread the below noted guidelines. Understand the pattern of pronunciation very assiduously and meticulously before starting the norm of daily recitation.

Best of luck!

  • The thorough understanding of this key given below is absolutely imperative for every reader before starting regular loud recitation.  
  • The system is:
  • 1.   a as in  gate     ay

                   as   father     ah

                   as   hat         a

  • 2.   e as  in  feet     ee

as    get        e             

  • 3.   i     as in  fight     y*                 
  •       i    as  in fit         i
  • 4.   o as in note     oh
  •          as   rot          o
  • 5.   u as in union    yoo

as  tune       ew

as  cut        u

 

In all the words  in this book of pronunciation:

  • 1,  ‘s’ is  always soft:
  • 2. ‘z’ always hard:
  • 3.  ‘k’ = hard ‘c’;
  • 4.  ‘th’ as in ‘things’ is described as unvoiced,
  • 5. and in ‘the’  is  voiced.

 

  • N.B.: y* represent the long “i” . For example: “iodine” is represented as “eye-oh-din” “idyll” as “eye-dil” “fragile” as “fraj-yl” “eye” has been used to represent an initial long “i”  (“idyll” as “eye-dil”). “-ile” has been use for such endings. The endings  as –ite, -ize, and –ire have been retained. However, “-yn” has been used “-ine” in order to distinguish this ending from “-een, and “-in”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

WORDS STARTING WITH THE ALPHABET   “A”

THE SYLLABLE TO BE EMPHASIZED IS IN BOLD LETTERS.

1.    abdomen:  ab-doh-men

Please interrupt your work and pay attention. A book for any  completive exam should  grammar-based so that the structure of a sentence is understandable in one reading. PLEASE READ, REREAD, REREAD, & REREAD the following narrative from  the Reader’s Digest.


This cliché will help you in knowing the reason why the writer of any book for competitive exams  must have exemplary and emulative grounding in English grammar. It means that he/she should have his/her own book with testimonials.

Taking cue from this trailblazing, startling, but most remunerative message, I studied a number of books on English grammar including the ones by Fowler, Otto Jespersen, Treble & Vallins, G C Whitworth, Harold E. Palmer,  M. Alderton Pink and of course Wren & Martin.

Later one, having taught English grammar for twenty years, I wrote my own award-winning book on English grammar . Two erudite, iconic, and exemplary Professors of English were exceedingly gracious in awarding testimonials to my book

 


Now, I apply the following guidelines also for writing my books so that understanding the meaning of the words and then memorizing them becomes a delightful obsession and stimulating activity.

 The guidelines are:

1.   ‘What’ as an antecedent-relative pronoun.

2.   G. C. Whitworth’s ‘three golden rules’  for using ‘the articles’ in English.    

      

3.   ‘It’ as an anticipatory subject with noun phrases and noun clauses.

4.   Possessive Adjectives Vs. Possessive Pronouns.

5.   ‘Distributives’ (each, every, either, neither).

6.   Verb transitive with an indirect object and a direct object.

7.   Factitive verbs.

8.   Three times for Past Perfect Tense.

9.   The fourth tense (future in the past tense).

 

I have made most earnest efforts, however imperfect, for writing the current book of mine. In this book, the questions of previous years’ exams have been solved   in the best possible manner. I will eagerly look forward to your valuable comments on my efforts. May God bless us all!
