It is the standard work on English phonetics and the name of its author will, in the words of Professor A. C. Gimson, ?remain in linguistic history as the great authority on the pronunciation of British English in the twentieth century?. The Pronunciation of English was written originally as a detailed description of the phonetics of English, presented from the point of vew of the native English-speaking student.
