English Phonemes

Hello class!

As you can see on Table 8, there are nearly 40 phonemes of English, while there are only 26 letters in the alphabet.

Please use the chart of phonemes as a reference and write a comment with two famous English quotes about any topic into phonemic transcription.

Then, wait for other classmates to post their own phonemic transcriptions and choose one to try to read and decipher. Write the actual quote as a comment on his or her post.

I will model with a phonemic transcripted quote post and then an example of a comment on someone's transcripted quote.

Please take into consideration that if both your own post and a comment on someone else's post are not made accordingly with the instructions, or your answers display more than 15 grammar or spelling mistakes, you will not get the total amount of points. 

Take the time to write your answer well and double check it before submitting it.

Don't forget that quote choices cannot be exactly the same, so you have to be aware to use some that haven't been posted by someone else before.


Deadline: Monday, June 05th, at 11:59pm.

      1. "Reading is knowledge, and knowledge is power."
      ─Sir Francis Bacon
