Description
Do you know the name of this symbol & and what it means? If you saw an advertisement for Hot Dog Buns 8 Ct., would you know what you’re buying? If you had to pronounce $8,432,804,671, could you do it? You saw 9/8 CT on TV. What does it mean?
I wrote this e-book, Pronouncing Numbers and Symbols in Standard American English, after noticing that many of my international students (beginning to advanced) were confused by them. American culture is full of numbers and symbols, but they are rarely covered in English as a second language classes. This practical guide is useful for the recent arrival to the U.S. who is confused by grocery store advertisements, the grad student who needs to be able to pronounce large numbers, or the parent who must help their children with math homework. Many other useful examples cover everyday topics such as personal information, telling time, the calendar, weather, health and more.
