Phonetics as a subject continues to be a puzzle for majority of learners of English in India. At the same time, the growing relevance of communication skills in different walks of life has turned it into an indispensable subject that has the potential to equip individuals with ennobling features, like elegance in speech, sophistication in behaviour and grace in personality.

The book introduces the elements of English Phonetics, the awareness of which really smartens individuals who wish to groom themselves to come up with flying colours in today's highly competitive global environment. The contents have been scientifically presented in a very lucid and compact language with adequate illustrations, diagrams and charts. Keeping in view the requirements of Indian learners of English, the book discusses sufficiently the problems encountered by them and evolves the ways to overcome the challenges in pronunciation in the most effective manner within the shortest possible time.
