I have some questions regarding phonetic transcription.
Does the following signs have names? (for example, ə=schwa)
ʌ, ɑ, a,
ɒ, o, ɔ,
æ, e
Because I have to speak about them and I don't know how to refer to them in the simpliest way. I know I can refer to them like "ʌ in cup" but isn't there a simpler way? Especially, when I have to compare them,how can I distinguish them?
