What are the phonetic symbols of 26 English letters? How to pronounce?

The phonetic symbols (pronunciation table) of 26 English letters are as follows:

Phonetic symbols, similar to Chinese Pinyin, are symbols for recording phonemes and writing phonemes, such as Chinese Pinyin letters, English Webster phonetic symbols and international phonetic symbols.

Its principle is that a phoneme is only represented by a phonetic symbol, and a phonetic symbol does not only represent a phoneme (diphthongs is composed of two phonemes, as opposed to a single vowel). A phonetic symbol consisting of two phonemes is called diphthongs.

The function of phonetic symbols is as follows:

The International Phonetic Alphabet strictly stipulates the principle of "one symbol and one sound", that is, "one phoneme, one symbol and one phoneme" is an essential pronunciation method for reading English words well.

In languages that use pinyin schemes, the same letter usually has several pronunciations in different words. For example, the "I" in English like and lit is phonetic with international phonetic symbols, which are [a? ] and [e], for example, A in bān (category) and bāng (modality) in Mandarin are [a] and [e] in the international phonetic alphabet respectively.

In addition, the same sound has different spellings in different languages. For example, English sh, French ch, German sch, Polish sz and Czech S are all international phonetic symbols [? ] sound.

These are the advantages of international phonetic symbols, that is, they can record and distinguish sounds more scientifically and accurately (there are 72 consonants and 32 vowels in general phonetic symbols, which is roughly enough for phonetic symbols). The arrangement of international phonetic symbols is easy to analyze and master (consonants are roughly located according to the pronunciation position and method, and vowels are located according to the position of the tongue).
