About this product

Product Information

How Do You Say? is a speaking and writing resource for all English learners. It bridges speaking and spelling with a simple, logical color system. Because the names of colors are the first thing a student learns in a new language, colors provide access to pronunciation and spelling for even the most novice learners. The icing on the cake in this inclusive publication is it uses only standard keyboard symbols (English Phonetic Alphabet) for its phonetic forms. How Do You Say? works like magic. By happy accident the 16 vowel sounds of English are featured in the names of 16 common colors. The sound dictionary organizes the 2000 most common English words by the color of their main vowel sound. Regardless of crazy English spelling, learners remember the pronuncation of words by the color of its main vowel sound. - head, said, next, friend and guest are Red words as they share the same main vowel sound - boot, suit, shoe, new, you, two and beautiful are Blue - pretty, city, sister, busy, women and build are Pink and so on How Do You Say? is also a writing resource as students can find the spelling of words they hear. Last but not least How Do You Say? is a dictionary of expressions critical for advanced learners. English is abstract. Red chair, red sweater and red chair are things colored red. Red tape, red eye and red letter are something else entirely (bureaucracy, overnight flight and good news). How Do You Say? contains thousands of expressions sourced by the color of their main words.
