Excerpt from Phonology and Orthoëpy: An Elementary Treatise on Pronunciation, for the Use of Teachers and Schools An accurate and elegant pronunciation forms no small factor of a liberal culture. Careless and uncouth speech is the almost certain index of a general lack of cultivation and refinement. Orthoëpy, therefore, has rightfully claimed the attention of the student, even in its past estate. But a new interest and an added value have been given to it by the recent rapid development of phonetic science. What once seemed a field of arbitrary custom, is now coming into view as an orderly realm of natural science. Orthoëpy can no longer be studied apart from phonology except by the merest empiricist. Says Prof. Whitney: "The study of phonetics has long been coming forward into more and more prominence as an essential part of the study of language; a thorough understanding of the mode of production of alphabetic sounds, and of their relations to one another as determined by their physical character, has become an indispensable qualification of a linguistic scholar. And he who cannot take to pieces his native utterance, and give a tolerably exact account of every item in it, lacks the true foundation on which everything else should repose."
