Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary (OALD) is a free on-line dictionary provided by Oxford University Press in its website Oxford Learner's Dictionaries.

IPA pronunciation key
Most of the phonetic pronunciations of Teflpedia are based on this dictionary, except that we write the silent /r/ so that in many words the British transcription is identical to the American transcription. We also write syllabic consonants preceded by a schwa (e.g. fashion as /ˈfæʃən/ instead of  /ˈfæʃn/).

We highlight in yellow when Teflpedia and OALD differ.
