Extract from the Editor s Preface 



I have adopted for the text of this volume that of the MS 

 kindly lent me by the Rev. Professor D. Margoliouth of 

 Oxford, called in previous volumes Codex M, as several 

 critics have wisely pointed out its very decided superiority 

 to Dr Rendel Harris's MS (Codex H) which I have accord- 

 ingly relegated to the notes.

Extract from the Preface 



This book is intended primarily as a Phonetic Manual for 

 the use of students in Scottish Training Colleges and Junior 

 Student Centres, but it is hoped that it may prove useful to 

 teachers of English of all grades in our Scottish schools, and 



to all who have to engage in public speaking Part I deals 



with the manner and place of iormation of the various sounds 



and their chansjes in combination It also enumerates the 



variations from Standard speech and gives suggestions for 

 the correction of errors of pronunciation. Part II consists of 

 a series of texts written in the speech of the educated middle 

 classes of Scotland. Part III contains a series of questions 

 on the subject-matter of Part I. The Appendix contains 

 (1) the ordinary English spelling of the phonetic texts in 

 Part II, (2) an account of the chief differences between 

 Scottish and Southern English, (3) advice to teachers on the 

 subject of the teaching of reading.
