    Dann y’all are good at IPA

    One day I’ll learn it, after I learn the NATO phonetic alphabet, dvorak typing, and Morse code.

      It helps when most of the vowels are the same and most other letters match their English counterparts lol.

      In case you get the urge to learn sooner:

      Here are some quick refs for consonants and vowels in English (RP = received pronunciation (a standardized form of English from the UK), GA = General American). Wikipedia pages for specific English dialects (e.g., Australian English) also contain a bunch of word/IPA pairs. Here are audio charts for vowels and consonants.

      Start with dvorak. It’ll ruin you best. You’ll be that person to your it department
