Transcribe the words on the next page using IPA symbols. The focus here is on the vowel
symbols. Don’t worry over the consonant symbols just yet, although I’ve tried to choose
examples in which the consonant symbols are pretty obvious (e.g., /p/, /t/, /s/, /k/, etc.).
As always the answers are attached. You don’t need to turn these in, but if you’re having
trouble with them please let me know.
