Excerpt from Hillard's Primer: Edited, in Pronouncing Orthography But its essential features may be seen in this book. While the common spelling is preserved unchanged, the pronunciation of each word is exactly indicated. This is done by using a special form of a letter for each sound of it, and printing the silent or unsounded letters in a lighter type.
