Excerpt from Swedish Phonology In this little volume I have made no attempt to treat any part of the subject exhaustively, nor is the book intended primarily as a work-of reference. My purpose has been merely to give as much as the student of Swedish ought to know about Swed ish pronunciation. Particularly Swedish - Americans, who have comparatively little difficulty with the sounds themselves, can profit much by a systematic study of the subject.
