What Is Phonemic Transcription?

The phonetic transcription hypothesis is one of the theoretical explanations of the role of internal speech in reading. Proposed by Rubinstein and others in the early 1970s. It is believed that the recognition of written words is mediated by phonemes, because psychological dictionaries are organized in the form of phonemes. There are two stages of word recognition: (1) using a rule of correspondence between letters and phonemes to transform a group of letters into a group of phonemes; (2) finding a psychological dictionary entry that matches this phoneme form, and when the corresponding entry When found, the word was known. This hypothesis holds that "internal speech"-phonemes play a key role in the recognition of words. ^[1]
