Phonetic features of English in Ireland

Phonological classes of vowels

24 Апреля 2013, реферат

Since the number of consonants in the world's languages is marginally greater than the number of consonant letters in any one alphabet, linguists have devised systems such as the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) to assign a unique symbol to each attested consonant. In fact, the Latin alphabet, which is used to write English, has fewer consonant letters than English has consonant sounds, so digraphs like "ch", "sh", "th", and "zh" are used to extend the alphabet, and some letters and digraphs represent more than one consonant. For example, the sound spelled "th" in "this" is a different consonant than the "th" sound in "thin". (In the IPA they are transcribed [ð] and [θ], respectively.)

"I'll be happy to do anything you want, Mr Crusoe." Friday sat alone at the front of the ship. I went and sat with him. "Friday, life in Europe is very different.
