Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Handbook of English and French Terms for the Use of Military Aviators
All silent letters are printed in light-face type, thus: (n), (t), (r); they should not be pronounced at all, except (6) mute or silent, the sound of which has been indicated above.
The French words carry a slight, but perceptible accent upon the last syllable, or rather vowel. Try to give the same value to all the syllables, and never drop the last.
Familiarize yourself in advance with the divisions of the book. Do not try to make sentences. If you are not understood, point out the word in your book, and have some one write the answer.
