Howdy, Pat,<br>
<br>
Re your question, Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary used to include<br>
their own long-standing re-spelling system, which was designed in part to<br>
hide regional differences, so people who pronounced key words differently<br>
could still find their own pronunciation as a key. Somewhere after the 9th<br>
edition they introduced a modified phonemic transcription, using \ \ lines<br>
to enclose the pronunciation. So if you don't have to have the 'very latest'<br>
'NEW' 1,000 words (computer jargon, 'app', 'ninja', etc.), and can find an<br>
older M-W dictionary, you'll have what you are looking for.<br>

1a. NON-PHONETIC PRONUNCIATION OR SIMPLE (RE)SPELLED PRONUNCIATION<br>
<br>
POSTED BY: "PPETOWUSA" <a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:PPETOWUSA%40YAHOO.COM" target="_blank" href="mailto:PPETOWUSA%40YAHOO.COM">PPETOWUSA@YAHOO.COM</a><br>

<br>
Are there any print dictionaries on the college level that use a<br>
non-phonetic, non-IPA, pronunciation guide, sometimes called "respelled<br>
pronunciation." I have the Collins Webster's Dictionary (paper, 2003, 2007),<br>
but it is not college-level.<br>
<br>
I know that there are some "radio" or TV broadcasters' pronunciation guides,<br>
and Iowa Public Radio has a guide online, but these emphasize people<br>
and places and music and are not comprehensive. I also understand that<br>
Cambridge (UK) and Oxford have published pronunciation guides although the<br>
format may be IPA--but I am interested in American English.<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
<br>
