A Dictionary Focusing on the Logic of English Spelling

Author: Wanda Sanseri 

A typical dictionary shows how to spell a word but not why it is spelled that way. The recently updated Alpha List analyzes 2300 high-frequency and/or commonly misspelled words; divides them into syllables; uses Spell to Write and Read markings; and cites rules, derivatives, points of interest, and their location in The WISE Guide.

This book is not restricted to users of Spell to Write and Read. Our marking system is summarized and our rules are provided. If a child misspells a word, you can now have a resource to successfully explain it phonetically.
