A practical guide to building a truly international English dictionary, designed for easy use across languages and borders.
From its opening pages, this work presents a clear aim: to offer a dictionary that is easy to telegraph, write, and print in any country. It discusses how to adopt an international alphabet, balancing familiar letters with new symbols to improve clarity without sacrificing practicality. The book explains the reasoning behind phonetic spelling and the goal of broad accessibility for readers around the world.
Readers will find a detailed approach to vocabulary, including how roots and affixes form new words, and how pronunciation considerations shape a global language tool. An appendix provides geographical names in standardized form, making it a handy reference for international communication and study.
Ideal for readers seeking a durable, cross-border reference for English usage and language planning.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book introduces an easy-to-learn constructed language designed to facilitate international communication. Expanding upon the existing framework of Esperanto, the author argues that a more naturalistic grammar and vocabulary drawn from widespread living languages will make this constructed language more accessible to the global community. The author discusses the challenges faced by existing international languages and explains how their decisions were directly informed by the critiques of those earlier projects. The author's detailed examination of the many facets of language learning makes this book indispensable not only to students of linguistics but also to anyone interested in the interplay between language and culture. A fascinating and in-depth look into the art and science of international communication, this book will be of great value to linguists and casual language enthusiasts alike.
