Audio Pronunciation Guide (3000 Words)
It takes much time and effort to master the phonetic
symbols and then use the same to find the correct
pronunciation of words from the dictionary. In the
meantime, learners pick up many wrong pronunciations
which are difficult to rectify afterwards.
To overcome this problem, we have recorded the
pronunciation of 3000 commonly used words. These word
are divided into the Basic, Junior, Senior and Advanced
level categories. Each word is repeated thrice so that the
words become clearly imprinted in the minds of the
learners. For ease of listening the audio tracks are of
about ten minute duration. All the Basic, Junior, Senior
and Advanced files are in separate folders. The files are
recorded in the mp3 format. This MSword file may also be
printed to that the learner can follow the printed list while
listening to the pronunciations. Repeatedly listening to the
audio pronunciations will help develop the pronunciation.
The Windows Media Player is also provided on the
CD.
