The Computer Phonetic Alphabet (CPA) is a set of symbols for defining the phonetic segments of a language. It parallels the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), with changes to make it easy to enter symbols with a standard keyboard. Table A-1 defines the set of CPA symbols used by Nuance for American English. These symbols are used to define pronunciations in this book.[1]
