Phonem
A phoneme () is any set of similar speech sounds that are perceptually regarded by the speakers of a language as a single basic sound—a smallest possible phonetic unit—that helps distinguish one word from another. All languages contain phonemes (or the spatial-gestural equivalent in sign languages), and all spoken languages include both consonant and vowel phonemes. Phonemes are studied under phonology, a branch of the discipline of linguistics (a field encompassing language, writing, speech and related matters).
Phonemes are often represented, when written, as a glyph (a character) enclosed within two forward-sloping slashes /. So, for example, /k/ represents the phoneme or sound used in the beginning of the English language word cat (as opposed to, say, the /b/ of bat).
