PHONETIC "g" words
in the English language
NOTE:
These words are part of 9,000+ words which were compiled and graciously
contributed by Alan Beale from his master list of 30,000 words
which show his speech-sound notation for those 30,000 words. This
makes it possible for him to efficiently generate lists of words
which meet any speech-sound criteria. The following words meet
our "selected-phonetic" criteria and should therefor
be useful for teaching beginners. Almost all these words are very
easy to read because all words with irregular spelling have been
eliminated.
Where
two listings are given for the same word, that word can be pronounced
in two different ways.
