1 answer:

Answer:

<u>Sounds </u>are noises produced, and in the context of language, they usually are connected to some certain letter or the combination of them. <u>Symbols </u>are representations of concept or idea, created in a cultural context. <u>Letter</u>s are signs that represent the written components of sounds and language.

Explanation:

<u>The sound refers to the produced noise that is audible</u>. In the context of the language, <u>it is the tone we make and that comes from our mouths, meaning the oral language</u>. Some languages do not have a written alphabet, but all languages are oral and consist of producing sound. <u>One sound can be equal to one letter, but some letters stand for two sounds or sounds that should be made after a combined mixture of two or more letters.</u>

<u>The symbol is a character or glyph that humans recognize to be a representation of some idea or concept.</u> <u>These are usually things that are known matter in a certain society.</u> They don’t have to have a natural, biological connection to their representation, but we understand them to be the impression of some idea.

<u>Letters in alphabets are symbols of the language and certain sounds. </u><u>Each written letter of the alphabet stands for some sound and represents a certain character used in oral and written communication.</u>

<u> It is important to note that </u><u>while letters are, at their core, a symbol, not all written symbols are letters</u><u>. Also, while </u><u>sounds can represent language and have the written equivalent in the form of a letter, not all sounds represent letters. </u>
