The reference dictionary focuses on the basic orthoepic norms. The reference part of the dictionary contains a brief commentary on the norms under consideration, as well as in some cases an indication of the meaning of words. The dictionary includes both common and proper names; orphoepic variants of words and their forms are given, the preferred literary, as well as the obsolete pronunciation, are noted. In total, the dictionary contains more than 2,000 words and word forms actively used in speech, with which certain orthoepic difficulties are associated. The book is addressed primarily to students of youth, but will also be interesting and useful to all those who seek to improve their own culture of oral and written speech and work on their level of functional literacy.
