EwD Lyrics
Welcome to the EwD Lyrics section, where popular songs have been crafted under the English with Diacritics (EwD) system. This resource showcases how the system enhances understanding and appreciation of English in an artistic context. Explore the different levels to see how EwD can progressively assist in mastering English pronunciation.1
After the third and final EwD level, you can also check out the Diacriticless (standard English spelling) version. The purpose of this is to help transitioning from EwD-guided reading to independent English reading, which is the ultimate goal of the approach.

Diacritics are placed according to the singer's personal accent, even if it is sometimes not the most usual pronunciation for the standard accent to which he or she belongs. For very unusual pronunciations, additional notes are added. ↩
