How many phonemes do english speakers use to producs words?
NeTakaya
A phoneme<span> (</span><span>/<span>ˈfoʊniːm</span>/</span><span>) is one of the units of sound (or gesture in the case of sign languages, see </span>chereme<span>) that distinguish one word from another in a particular language. For example, in most dialects of English, the sound patterns </span><span>/<span>θʌm</span>/</span><span> (</span>thumb<span>) and </span><span>/<span>dʌm</span>/</span><span> (</span>dumb<span>) are two separate words distinguished by the substitution of one phoneme, </span>/θ/<span>, for another phoneme, </span>/d/<span>. (Two words like this that differ in meaning through a contrast of a single phoneme form what is called a </span>minimal pair<span>). In many other languages these would be interpreted as exactly the same set of phonemes (i.e. </span>/θ/<span> and </span>/d/<span> would be considered the same).</span>

What inference can be made from the statement that the Nike shoe is just the tip of this adaptive iceberg
AleksandrR [38]
I think you can infer that Nike (or tennis shoes in general) has a lot more in store besides shoes. Along with shoes, Nike comes up with high quality clothing, and could be planning something great in the future.
