The term raise class is used throughout this book. It means upward mobility; to move closer to middle, upper middle, and high class. Classes are based on income, job importance, social status, possessions, etc. The most common way that people are in the higher classes is by inheritance. The ways people raise their class are by education, ability, recognition of accomplishments, good luck, becoming a military officer, and perhaps most importantly, speaking Standard American English. This book is not about grammar or the correct writing or speaking of sentences. It is also not about spelling. Pronouncing and using words correctly usually helps you spell them correctly. This book is about helping English-speaking Americans with an accent or dialect also speak American Standard English, correct the misuse of words and terms, and use more precise meanings. This may help you repair ignorance, raise your class, get a better job, and increase your income. There are many books and articles about American English mispronunciations. To the author’s knowledge, there are no books about how improving American English pronunciation, accuracy, and precision may raise your class. Your inability to use American Standard English may result in an unsatisfactory interview for a job and being rejected. This may affect your self-esteem, confidence, and emotional state. Learning American Standard English may enable you to be hired, receive promotions, and pay raises, improve your self-esteem, and confidence, and improve your emotional well-being.
