Notes on words [edit]

Phonemic transcriptions are in IPA symbols.

open in browser PRO version Are you a developer? Try out the HTML to PDF API pdfcrowd.com
 Diferent spellings of identical words are grouped with
parentheses. Symbols, numbers/letters are in brackets.
There is some ambiguity over homophones since there are diferent pronunciations of words.

Notes on inclusion [edit]

Contracted words are included.
A few double-words are included. (A word can sound like two words in
sequence) Plural nouns, and tensed verbs are included.
Some well known proper names (first or last) are included, although this allows
endless additions.
