Extract

In this paper the author discusses the mechanism of speech, and the character of the vowels and consonants which occur in the English language. He points out the importance of attending to the proper division of words into syllables, and of clearly articulating consonants. He shows how his theory of monopressures facilitates the correct reading of poetry.
