Just you wait, Henry Sweet
Just you wait, Henry Sweet
The insuferable Henry Higgins in George Bernard Shaw’s I9I2 play the Pygmalion, the basis of the 1956 musical M y Fair Lady, was based on an actual professor of phonetics and Old English, Henry Sweet ( 1845-1912). This British scholar invented his own system o f phonetics and published such influential works as History of English Sounds in 1874 and Handbook of Phonetics in 1877.
