John Rupert Firth
After a long illness in 1959, when he spent many weeks in hospital, Firth was compelled to husband his strength, but his mental agility and his enthusiasm for the things that interested him were undiminished, and on the day of his sudden death, 14 December 1960, he was to have come to London for a threeday conference called by the British Council to consider the teaching of English as a second language. It was surely the kind of end one would hav…
Notes on the Pronunciation of Sea Dayak
In my Dictionary of Sea Dayak , I gave a scheme for the systematic spelling of the language in a table that is reproduced below. The following notes on the phonetic interpretation of this spelling are based on the pronunciation of speakers from the Second Division of Sarawak. The descriptions refer to words spoken in isolation, which have slightly increased stress on the final syllable

A Study in the Phonetics of Fijian

I have been able to check a number of points with a native Bauan speaker, who tells me that B.′s…
The Monosyllable In Szechuanese
In Le Maître Phonétique for April-June, 1940, I gave some notes on the pronunciation of Mr. Su Cheng, a native of Fengtuhsien, Szechuan. I have recently been able to make further observations in his case, and also to study the pronunciation of Mr. Chao Che Shen, a native of Ipin, Szechuan, which lies some 200 miles to the west of Fengtuhsien
