pronunciation guides
Sound-out spelling aids
Pronunciation guides are notation systems showing how words should be spoken.
They typically use phonetic symbols, respelling, or diacritical marks to indicate sounds, stress, and syllable breaks: The pronunciation guide showed the emphasis falls on the second syllable.
Dictionaries place them after headwords; language textbooks use them throughout.
