Pronunciation

British

English

is

conservative

and

rigorous.

In

many

cases,

thereis

no

correspondence

between

the

pronunciation

and

spelling,

and

British

are

willing

to

follow

the

rule

in

this

way

to

show

theirkind

of

recognition

and

respect

for

their

language.

However,

Americans

have

another

concept.

They

do

everything

under

the

precondition

of

convenience,

and

they

tend

to

follow

the

regularpronunciation

rather

than

pronunciation

in

English.

Americans

change

the

irregular

pronunciations

in

BritishEnglish

into

ones.

1.1

PronunciationBr41.2SpellingThe

way

of

spelling

in

American

English

is

more

concise

and

practical

than

that

in

British

English,

they

would

ignore

the

letter

in

writing

if

the

letter

was

not

pronounced,

which

makes

words

short

and

easy

to

spell.

Take

an

example,

if

the

letter

L

ending

in

a

word

was

not

unstressed

syllable,

American

people

seldom

end

the

word

with

double

L,

such

as

will

instead,

and

traveler

instead

of
