Pronunciation of American English (for practice)

This book lists approximately 17,000 core English words that are divided into 25 vowel categories containing stressed syllables and listed alphabetically within each category. Also the words are divided into three different levels of ESL (English as a Second Language) so that learners can practice pronunciation according to their levels. Level 1 (for elementary & middle school) is written in red, level 2 (for high school) is written in blue, and level 3 (for university and above) is written in black.

This book is ideal for learners of English as a second language who want to communicate more effectively and also for native English speakers who wish to change dialects.
