PREFATORY NOTE
Although
at first glance English spelling may appear erratic to the extent which
would seem to justify G. B. Shaw’s poking fun at it by remarking on the
possibility of writing the word "fish" as "ghoti" (since its three
successive sounds can be represented in this manner in words like
"enough", "women" and "action"), still it obeys certain rules that can
be acquired through assiduity and perseverance. The aim of this handbook
is to provide First and Second year students of English Philology with a
collection of texts by British and American authors in which various
spelling peculiarities and idiosyncrasies of style can be observed.
Alongside of the excerpts we have provided some explanatory notes,
spelling rules and exercises to help students improve their command of
English orthography. In striving to achieve this goal we have graded the
texts, in as far as it is possible to do so, according to their
complexity, guided by a teaching practice of a fairly long standing. The
texts in the separate units are meant for writing (at someone’s
dictation) and for translation into Bulgarian. These tasks, designed
also to enhance the students’ language awareness, can be done under the
supervision of the lecturer or individually, or else by working in pairs
or in small groups. The meanings of some words with a lower rate of
occurrence have been explained and at the end of each unit a number of
useful idiomatic expressions have been supplied for translation into
Bulgarian and subsequent use in an independent generation of sentences.
