Excerpt from Spoken English: A Method of Improving Speech and Reading by Studying Voice Conditions and Modulations in Union With Their Causes in Thinking and Feeling Dr. Charles W. Eliot once remarked: The primary characteristic of an educated man is his ability to speak and to write his own language with efficiency. We learn to speak before we learn to write, and the way we speak in every-day conversation is the basis of our style in writing. Hence, when rightly considered, correct speaking is at least as necessary to the proper use of our own language as writing, and must be ever regarded as a fundamental part of education. This book is an endeavor to furnish such methods for the development of Spoken English as will parallel the work of Written English during the last years of the Gram mar or the first years of the High School or Normal School; and to furnish hints upon the problem of teaching reading and of improving the voice.. The teaching of the right use of the voice and of all phases of spoken English demands primarily insight into mental and emotional conditions. In writing there is some thing objective for the teacher to mark, something external that the student himself can see, and well-settled rules of grammar to be obeyed. In spoken English, however, rules cannot be laid down except for such mere grammatical aspects as are common to both writing and speaking.
