Henry Sweet

Henry Sweet was an influential English philologist and phonetician who focused on Germanic languages, particularly Old English and Old Norse. His groundbreaking work explored broader issues of phonetics, grammar, and language pedagogy, with many of his ideas remaining vital in academic circles today. A pioneer in language teaching, Sweet emphasized spoken language and phonetics, producing seminal works that laid the foundation for modern phonetic studies and the scientific description of speech. His contributions, especially to Old English dialectology and the study of pronunciation, continue to inform linguistic scholarship.
