Somehow NONSENSE makes a lot of sense to most of the people around the world.
Let us look at the absurdity of the following statements by
the two ‘educators’.
‘A’ stands for apple but changes a
little bit depending on the letters before it or after it. So, it doesn’t sound
exactly the same. The idea of a phoneme is a construct that is not true. (Dr.
Kathryn Garforth)
It’s a simplification to think
about phonemes as having a single sound, however our brains are able to cope
with that slight variability in that co-articulation that happens according to
the consonant or vowel that’s on the other side. (Jennifer Buckingham)
