When the general, nursing his bruised shoulder, had gone, Rainsford took up his flight again. It was flight now, a desperate, ho

peless flight, that carried him on for some hours. Dusk came, then darkness, and still he pressed on. The ground grew softer under his moccasins; the vegetation grew ranker, denser; insects bit him savagely. Then, as he stepped forward, his foot sank into the ooze. He tried to wrench it back, but the muck sucked viciously at his foot as if it were a giant leech. With a violent effort, he tore his foot loose. He knew where he was now. Death Swamp and its quicksand.

What is phonetic transcription?
ASHA 777 [7]

To most of my research so far, it is the visual of speech sounds. When you look through a dictionary, you'll usually see these things under the main word you're looking for.

For example, you take a word like "Seahorse". You have the word type, and below the word type, you see some fancy looking text.

I will bold this mini dictionary bit for you to show you what we're focusing on.

Seahorse

Noun

/ˈsēhôrs/

The text in bold here is what you're looking for when you want to find the "Phonetic Transcription." Hope this helps!
