The sounds of English.

When we start talking about sounds we've got a variety of them, but What does sound make different among others? We can find different aspects as the quality, the length, position of the organs of speech. However this is not very helpful because a sound with the same quality, length and position of the organs in one language can have other different maening in any other language. So the sounds that we look for are sounds that when they get togehter broadcast a meaningful message that is understood by speakers of this.

The English language has got sounds as other languages which are divided in: Vocal sounds, consonants sounds, diphtongs.
