The letters containing the same vowel phonemes as the letter l include m, n, f, x, and s.
A phoneme is the smallest unit or smallest speech segment that makes up a syllable. It is divided from the perspective of timbre. For example, ba can be divided into "b" and "a", and gan can be divided into three phonemes: "k, a, and n".
The English alphabet, the letters on which English is now based, has 26 letters. The modern English alphabet completely borrows the 26 Latin letters. The so-called "Latin alphabet" is the alphabet used by the ancient Romans. The same letters form the ISO basic Latin alphabet.
Phonemes are what we can feel in syllables, which are letters one by one. When ng represents only one phoneme, this is only from a phonetic perspective. Phoneme refers to both phonetics and meaning. The smallest unit we can feel from phonetics is a phoneme. If this phoneme can also distinguish meaning, it is a phoneme.
For example, the initial consonant of "wen" is pronounced as [w] or [v], but [w] and [v] do not distinguish between meanings. We hear [wen] and [wen] Whenever you hear new [ven], you will interpret it as news and have no other meaning. But [b] and [p] are different. When we say eight, lie down, there is a meaningful difference.
Mute letter g:
When the letter g is placed before m and n, the letter combination gm/gn is at the beginning or end of a word, g is originally pronounced, and over time Over time, the /g/ sound was lost, but the original spelling form was retained.
In the following words, the letter g is silent: design, resign, sign. When gm/gn is not at the beginning or end of a word, the letter g must still be pronounced. For example: signature.
