14. The vowel sounds 4, 5, 6, 7, are represented by the sign in three positions, upon precisely the same principle; but in order to make it represent four sounds, it is placed at nearly a right angle with the consonant, for 4, 5, 7, and parallel to the consonant, for 6; thus paw, burr, _l] coat, c - i crew.

A Manual of Phonography, or Writing by Sound (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book expounds on a revolutionary approach to understanding spoken sounds by expressing them in a distinctively simple manner, using an alphabet of convenient symbols. While a means of representing sounds has existed for a long time, it has been cumbersome, requiring people to spend an inordinate amount of time writing, and leaving much room for inaccuracies in reading. This book, by contrast, proposes a system that is not only far easier and faster to write, but also much more precise when it comes to reading. This system addresses the historical gap between the number of sounds and written characters, bringing them into much closer alignment. Bringing speech and writing into closer union has wide-ranging implications for improving communication and advancing literacy across the board. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333908386_0
