a phoneme
Yes, phonemes is the plural of phoneme.
no. phoneme is the smallest unit in a sound in a word.
There are two phonemes in the word "phoneme." The "ph" sound represents one phoneme (/f/) and the "oneme" part represents another (/oʊ/).
This varies according to accent. A phoneme is a speech sound, and in some accents, the r is strong, so it is a separate phoneme. For example, in the word "word" there are three phonemes - w / or / d but this is where the differentiation between accents may come in to play. In some accents of the US, the r would be pronounced quite strongly, and be considered its own phoneme, whilst in England and Australia, the r is a very weak sound, and becomes part of the or phoneme.
Allophone is any speech sound that represents a single phoneme. The K in kit and skit are allophones of the phoneme K.
Phoneme manipulation is the most advanced form of phonemicawareness. These activities require children to add or substitute phonemes in words:■ Phoneme addition. Say a word and then say it again with a phoneme added at thebeginning (an > fan) or end (an > ant).■ Phoneme deletion. Say a word and then say it again without the initial (farm > arm)or ending (farm > far) sound.■ Phoneme substitution. Substitute initial sounds in lyrics of familiar songs (Fe-Fi-Fiddly-i-o > De-Di-Diddly-i-o)
CK's real name is Szekely, and chose CK as it is a way of pronouncing Szekely.
