Note Reading ease score: 58.6 (10th to 12th grade). Somewhat difficult to read.
Summary "Moby Pronunciation List by Grady Ward" is a technical resource that serves as a pronunciation dictionary, likely compiled in the early 21st century. It encompasses a comprehensive list of words and phrases along with their phonetic translations using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and other ASCII symbols. The document is particularly targeted at users of the Moby (tm) Pronunciator II software, designed for DOS operating systems, and includes guidelines on how to utilize the compiled pronunciation entries effectively. The contents of the book consist mainly of pronunciation records, with detailed explanations of how sounds correspond to English letters, special cases for names from other languages, and distinctions in word pronunciations based on their part of speech. It includes various phonetic transcription methods, stress markings, and emphasizes the importance of phonetic accuracy for speech understanding systems. The book also provides information on the sources used to compile the dictionary, the disclaimer about its accuracy, and an invitation for users to contribute corrections and additions to the vocabulary list, thereby fostering a collaborative approach to improving the resource.
