NOTE.--A useful mnemonic for the Esperanto vowels is pAr, pEAr, pIEr,
pORe, pOOr, but the sounds should not be dragged. It is helpful to note
that the English words "mate, reign, pane, bend; meet, beat, feel, lady;
grow, loan, soft; mute, yes, mule" (as pronounced in London and South of
England), would be written in Esperanto thus:--"mejt, rejn, pejn, bend;
mijt, bijt, fijl, lejdi; groux, louxn, soft; mjut, jes, mjul".
