Dictionary of Pronunciation by Norman Lewis
In preparing this new edition, the editors have striven to maintain the quality of the earlier editions and, in the tradition of the editors who preceded them, have once again expanded the scope of the volume. As a result, the total number of entries now exceeds 21,000 commonly used words and proper names as well as perennially difficult names from history and the arts.
One significant departure from the third edition is the modified pronunciation scheme employed. Because modern readers may lack thorough understanding of the International Phonetic Alphabet, the fourth edition offers a readily understandable respelling system to indicate pronunciation. In addition, the fourth edition supplies indication of secondary stresses as well as primary stresses within words needless to say many; proper names included in past edition are no longer in current use, so they have been removed to make room for names of greater value for today's speakers. Finally, pronunciations preferred in the past but no longer commonly heard have been replaced.
