================================================================  

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Does anyone know where to find a list of the words that are systematically
pronounced differently in british and American English (e.g. issue,
laboratory, process). Idealy we would like a lexicon with pronunciations
that can be used commercially.

Many thanks,
