Vowels and consonants are called segmentals - individual sounds into which words can be segmented. We focus on the phonemes, that is, general sound categories that are distinctive in the language. For example, the /b/ and /p/ are considered different sounds in English - ''bat'' is a distinctly different word from ''pat'' - but this sound contrast may not be true in other languages. Learners will have difficulty with how English phonemes sound in particular contexts, which is where phonetics knowledge will be helpful for teachers.
