IPA Symbols
The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is an essential tool for any student or teacher of the English language. Developed in the 19th century, the IPA provides a standardized way to represent the sounds of speech in written form. The British English IPA chart includes 44 symbols that represent the monophthongs, diphthongs, and consonant sounds of spoken British English. The Britlish Library offers a wide range of activities to help you master the British English IPA symbols, improve your pronunciation, and take your English language skills to the next level. Whether you're a student or a teacher, our activities are designed to help you learn, remember, and effectively use the IPA in your English language studies.
Spelling
Spelling can be challenging in English due to the many exceptions and irregularities in the language. These Activities are designed to help you improve your spelling skills by learning and practicing commonly misspelled words. The exercises will help you to identify patterns and rules in spelling, and to memorize the correct spellings of words. By participating in these Activities, you will have a better chance of spelling words correctly in your written English.
Vocabulary
Did you know that there are over 600,000 words in English? That's a lot of words, and far more than any human being could ever manage to learn. Even Shakespeare only used around 55,000 different words in all of his works. Mind you, he did actually invent quite a few of them. To get a good mastery of English, you do need to expand your vocabulary as much as possible. The more words you know, the better your English will be. The Activities here will help you to quickly develop your vocabulary.

During World War II, the British government and the Royal Air Force (RAF) created a cover story, the carrot myth, to protect the secret of their radar technology. They claimed that their pilots' exceptional night vision was due to their consumption of large quantities of carrots, which are rich in vitamin A, essential for maintaining healthy vision. British pilots were instructed to use this story if captured by the Germans. The carrot myth proved effective in misdirecting German research, causing them to focus on carrot-based diets for their pilots, while the British maintained their advantage in the skies using their advanced radar technology. The carrot myth persisted long after the war, but in reality, while carrots are important for maintaining healthy eyesight, they don't dramatically enhance night vision.
