Phonetic transcription is a system for visually representing the sounds of speech using symbols from the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) or other phonetic notation systems. This method captures the specific pronunciation of words, including aspects such as vowel quality, consonant articulation, stress, and intonation. For example, the word "cat" is phonetically transcribed as /kæt/, clearly indicating its individual sounds. Phonetic transcription is essential for studying phonetics and linguistics because it provides an accurate and consistent way to convey pronunciation across different languages and dialects, helping learners and researchers understand speech patterns and variations.
