English Pronunciation is a way in which a word or language is spoken.
Good English pronunciation is an essential part of good communication.
If you don’t have a clear English pronunciation, other people may not understand what you’re saying.
Mistakes in pronunciation can cause major misunderstandings.
What are Phonemes?
Phonemes are the different sounds within a language.
Phonemes are divided into three categories:
- Vowel Sounds
- Consonant Sounds.
- Diphthongs
All 43 Sounds in English together can be easily represented in a chart, that chart is called The International Phonetic Alphabet which is an alphabetic system of phonetic notation.
Additional to The British Council Interactive Phonemic Chart, you can download a poster of each symbol found in it.
The posters are in Portable Document Format (pdf), and each poster comes with examples.
