Sounds of English

iPad / Education

Sounds of English App was originally envisioned as a tool to assist some people on the autistic spectrum to become familiar with the fundamental sounds of English language.


Sounds of English App helps a learner with the following
-monothongs, diphthongs and consonants awareness
-phonological awareness
-categorization of sounds by their place of articulation
-mental representation of each phonological unit with a unique icon
-awareness that a sequence of sounds make spoken words


Sounds of English App also includes diagrams which show the approximate positions of speech organs for creation of 43 sounds of English.


A way to use Sounds of English App
-try to create a mental image of the articulation diagrams
-hear a sound, then hear one of its adjacent sounds
-hear a sound, then try to recreate it
-try to create a corresponding mental image of the icon for each sound
-learn the sequence of sounds for each of the 200+ most used words
-try to blend a sequence of sounds together to sound out a word they make


Since English language has many dialects, the most widely understood English dialect was chosen. The dialect of Hollywood films and shows.
