The IPA is especially handy when studying English because English is not a phonetic language.
在學習英語時，IPA特別方便，因為英語不是語音語言。
This means when you see a letter or a group of letters, it will not necessarily be pronounced the same in each word in which it occurs, just as in the example at the beginning of this video.
這意味著當您看到一個字母或一組字母時，它不一定在發生的每個字中發音相同，就像在本影片開頭的例子一樣。
The IPA has a written symbol for each phonetic sound.

So, this makes it easier to read about and write about pronunciation.
