Respuesta:
The international phonetic alphabet (AFI or IPA in English, international phonetic alphabet) was created by a group of constituent linguists of the International Phonetic Association «with the purpose of granting, in a regularized, precise and unique way, the representation of the sounds of any oral language
It is a tool that serves to represent all the sounds of any language in the world.
It consists of 107 symbols, (letters taken from the Latin and Greek alphabet mostly) and 55 modifiers. But do not panic, since you only have to learn the symbols that represent the sounds of English.
The first version of the IPA was created at the end of the 19th century (the last one is from 2005) by the International Phonetic Association (IPA), whose headquarters are currently at the University of London.
What is the AFI/IPA alphabet for and how can it help you?
The IPA are those symbols that appear in square brackets in language dictionaries. Doesn't it sound more familiar to you now? Its usefulness lies in the fact that each symbol represents a single sound, that is, 1 symbol = 1 sound (and always the same).
It's like learning a secret code that reveals the pronunciation of any word, in any language in the world, even if you've never heard it before.
This is the code that allows Popes to read their speeches in dozens of languages they do not speak. (Yep, now you know the trick) ...
Learning to read in IPA will help you avoid falling into some of the pitfalls of English writing. Let's go with some examples.
How do you pronounce the following words in English?
word, soldier, salmon, honor archive, tomb
As I have told you before, 1 symbol = 1 sound and always the same. If you learn the sound that corresponds to each symbol, you will know just by looking at the transcript how to pronounce it:
word /wɜːd/ Am /wɜrd/ soldier /ˈsəʊlʤə/ salmon /ˈsæmən/ honor /ˈɒnə/ archive /ˈɑːkaɪv/ tomb /tuːm/
As you can see, the word word is not pronounced with the Spanish /o/. In the word salmon the /l/ is not pronounced, as is the /h/ in the word hono(u)r. The pronunciation of tomb is nothing like how it is written. Also notice how the word archive is pronounced if you thought it was said archive, you were wrong
