This chart contains all the sounds (phonemes) used in the English language. For each sound, it gives:
· The symbol from the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), as used in phonetic transcriptions in modern dictionaries for English learners — that is, in A. C. Gimson's phonemic system with a few additional symbols.
The chart represents British and American phonemes with one symbol. One symbol can mean two different phonemes in American and British English.
· Two English words which use the sound. The underline shows where the sound is
heard.
