Series: Language and language learning, 28. Pioneer of the study of phonetics in England, schooled as an amateur on the work of Grimm, german linguistics, and the work of Alexander Melville Bell (father of the telephone inventor). Sweet labored in isolation in England, while the Germans took over the field in the late 19th century. Most amusing, as noted by Bertrand Wainger (1930): "Bernard Shaw entitles his preface to Pygmalion " A Professor of Phonetics." The reference is to the distinguished scholar, Henry Sweet. It is evident that Shaw took Sweet as a model for some of the major lineaments of the portrait of the Professor Higgins of the play. It was Sweet who invented the Broad Romic system of phonetic notation; it was Sweet who sent postcards in that script and in his shorthand script to his friends; it was Sweet who was able to pronounce distinctly seventy-two vowel sounds. Sweet would often turn his back on a group of speakers and jot down a phonetic record of their conversation; Sweet was engrossed in his studies- as is Professor Higgins-to the exclusion of the social amenities; and Sweet alone, in England, was sufficiently the master of the science of phonetics to have been able to transmute Liza into Miss Doolittle.".
