Alphabet
Learn how to pronounce the 26 letters in the English alphabet.

Consonants
Many English consonants have more than one sound, or they can be silent.

Consonants - Voiced and Unvoiced
Many consonant sounds come in pairs. For example, P and B are produced in the same place in the mouth with the tongue in the same position. The only difference is that P is an unvoiced sound while B is a voiced sound.

ED - pronunciation of simple past
There are three ways to pronounce the final -ed of regular verbs in the simple past tense. This pronunciation is determined by the final sound of the verb in the infinitive: Is it a voiced consonant, an unvoiced consonant, or a vowel sound?

International Phonetic Alphabet
Phonetics is a branch of linguistics that examines sounds in a language. Phonetics describes these sounds using the symbols of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).

Vowels
The English vowels are A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Y. Each of these can be pronounced at least three ways.
