As you probably know, phonetic symbols are a great help when it comes to learning to pronounce English words correctly. Any time you open a dictionary, you can find the correct pronunciation of words you don't know by looking at the phonetic pronunciation that follows the word. Unfortunately, learning the phonetic alphabet is not always the easiest thing to do. http://esl.about.com/library/weekly/aa040998.htm

http://www.eslpod.com/eslpod_blog/ Welcome to ESL Podcast Blog Who Are You Calling “Elderly”? People don’t like getting old. People like it even less when they’re called old. The term “ elderly ” is used to describe someone who is old, as in “elderly residents (people who live in a place)” or “elderly women.”
The IPA is the major as well as the oldest representative organisation for phoneticians. It was established in 1886 in Paris. 2011 marked the 125th anniversary of the founding of the IPA, and 2013 is the 125th anniversary of the first publication of the International Phonetic Alphabet and the formulation of the principles. The aim of the IPA is to promote the scientific study of phonetics and the various practical applications of that science. In furtherance of this aim, the IPA provides the academic community world-wide with a notational standard for the phonetic representation of all languages - the International Phonetic Alphabet (also IPA). <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p> http://www.langsci.ucl.ac.uk/ipa/index.html
