English Pronunciation.
Prom the London Spectator.

From the London Spectator.
There is a village in North Devon which
the sign posts call Wolfardisworthy, but
which we have heard pronounced Wool
serthy." Very likely. however If you went
there and pronounced It SO you would be
reproved for the contraction.
This was what happened to us at Ciren-
cester. Passing through that town we were
solemnly corrected for calling 1t Chester ]"
On the other hand, when wandering in
Norfolk and drawing nigh to place which
was marked on the map "Happisburgh, -
we found ourselves quite unintelligible be-
cause we did not pronounce 1t "Hazebro."
Even in English the difference between
sight and sound Is confined to a small mi
nority of words. though some people seem
to be of the same opinion as a young
Hanoverian lady Of our acquaintance who
naively remarked: You English do pro-
nounce SO strangely. There is your great
author; you spell him Dickens, and
you pronounce him Boz"
