Comparison of Phonetic and Phonemic Alphabets
The transcription system used to represent NAE consonants and vowels in this text
deviates in some respects from other commonly used transcription systems,
especially with regard to the vowel symbols used. We have made these
modifications to (1) allow the transcription system to more accurately reflect the
sound system of NAE and (2) be of pedagogical value in helping learners of
English approximate the segmental features of the language. The following table
presents a comparison of our alphabet with several other commonly used
systems. The IPA symbols given are from Jones (1991) and represent British
Received Pronunciation (RP).
