How Do I Say That?
The Flewelling Pronunciation Guide

For some time now people have been asking for a pronunciation guide. Here, at last, with the help of friends on the Flewelling Yahoo group, is the beginning of one. It is alphabetical and encompasses all the books. If the word you need does not appear below, please submit it to: lbflewelling@roadrunner.com and watch this space. Lynn cannot give you a direct reply, but will use your queries to expand the list.
