About

Syllable Phonics

Features
Read full description

Syllable is the basic unit of pronunciation. The pronunciation of any word can be broken down into syllables. According to the number of syllables contained in a word, it can be divided into single syllable, double syllable and multi-syllable. The syllable phonetic method is based on the syllable as the basic unit to spell words, emphasizing the overall phonetic reading of the syllable; while the traditional Phonetics is based on the phoneme as the basic unit, emphasizing the corresponding relationship between phonemes and letters or letter combinations. Spelling based on the syllable phonetic method is more efficient, because the same phoneme in the traditional Phonetics may correspond to more letters or letter combinations, while the same syllable in the syllable phonetic method can only correspond to fewer or even unique syllables. This application provides the above-mentioned practice methods, including the traditional Phonetics, imitation of more than 100,000 words, and syllable division.
