Questions & answers

How Does the IPA Chart Work? The IPA chart has a unique symbol for each sound of speech. It doesn't have letters that are context-dependent, and no letters are used to combine sounds. The chart contains 107 symbols representing consonants and vowels, 31 of which are glyphs used to specify certain sounds.
The IPA chart was designed to indicates how each sound is created, by specifying where in the mouth it is produced and in what manner it is produced. This can be really important if you are struggling to pronounce a word in another language correctly.
A great way to practise the IPA symbols with the chart is to get a blank diagram and practise writing the symbols in, preferably with keywords for the ones that don't look like their intuitive English sounds so that you remember what they sound like.
The vertical axis of the chart shows the height of each vowel sound. Sounds higher on this axis have the tongue in a higher position, and those lower have a lower position. “Close” refers to the lips being partially or mostly closed. “Open” refers to the mouth being more open.
IPA makes it easy to learn new vowel sounds in any language. First, find out the vowel's IPA symbol. You can usually get it by searching for “(name of language) phonology” or “IPA for (language)” on Wikipedia. Then find that symbol on the chart, and see how it relates to the vowels you already know how to say.
