The English language contains many words that are pronounced differently from the way they are spelled. For instance, can you pronounce these words with confidence:
hegemony - inchoate - leitmotif - maitre ďhôtel - noblesse oblige - paradigm - potpourri?

The Audio/Visual Guide to Standard American Pronunciation® contains these and 230 other words that are seen frequently in leading American newspapers, magazines and other publications. You will master the pronunciation of these words though the learning process used in this application, which involves listening to each word and then repeating it.
