Minimal Pairs
One
set of speech sounds that serve to differentiate one word from another.
A phoneme may consist of several phonetically distinct expression. An articulation may be substituted for another without any change of meaning.
/p/ and /b/ are separate phonemes in English because they distinguish such words as pet and bet light and dark /l/ sounds in little are not separate phonemes since they may be swapped without changing meaning
Phonemic Chart
The phonemic chart contains all 44 sounds that make up words in spoken English.

the different pronunciations of the t sound in tar and star. In English the t sounds in the words bit, flip, and little are allophones
Switching
one allophone for another allophone of the same phoneme doesn't lead to a different word, just a different pronunciation of the same word.
Is a branch of phonology that deals with restrictions in a language on the permissible combinations of phonemes. Phonotactic constraints are language specific.
Phonotactics
also affects the structure and emphasis of syllables in a language. Nearly every French word, for instance, has an emphasis on the final syllable. In Greek, the emphasis depends on the length of the final vowel in the word, among other factors. When speaking his or her native language, a person is often able to put the emphasis on the correct syllable intuitively, even if reading an unfamiliar word.

Words
can be cut up into units called syllables. Humans seem to need syllables as a way of segmenting the stream of speech and giving it a rhythm of strong and weak beat. Syllables don't serve any meaningsignalling function in language; they exist only to make speech easier for the brain to process. A word contains at least one syllable.
Here
are some words divided into their component syllables (a period is used to mark the end of a syllable):
a.li.fra.gi.lis.ti.cex.pi.a.li.do.cious
Onset:
the beginning sounds of the syllable; the ones preceding the nucleus. read
flop
strap
Rhyme
The rhyme can also be divided up: Rhyme = nucleus + coda The nucleus, as the term suggests, is the core or essential part of a syllable.
coda
the coda in English are often (but not always) a mirror-image of those in the onset .
The syllable structure analysis of the words 'read', 'flop', 'strap' and 'window' are as follows (IPA symbols are used to show the sounds in the word/syllable):
read = one syllable Onset = [ r ] Rhyme = [ id ] Nucleus = [ i ] Coda = [ d ] flop = one syllable Onset = [ f l ] Rhyme = [ a p ] Nucleus = [ a ] Coda = [ p ] (within the rhyme:)
window = 2 syllables
Second syllable: [ d o ]
Onset = [ d ] Rhyme = [ o ]
Nucleus = [ o ]
(This syllable has no coda)
