Phonetics to English words
 
You will find the phonetics for words in almost every dictionary nowadays. I am not sure exactly what you're asking for.
 
Phonetics to English words

Welcome to the forum. :hi:

Your sentence fragment above doesn't mean anything. You need to ask us an actual question. What exactly is it that you want to know?
 
It would be great if there was a utility that allowed you to enter IPA symbols
and get back the corresponding sounds.
Perhaps as voiced from a selection of accents (UK, US, AUS etc)

So let's take the word 'path': UK = /pɑːθ/ and US = /pæθ/
What would: /paθ/ sound like ?
Perhaps like a northern englisch accent with a short 'a' sound.
 
All phonetic base are belong to us.

I learned of that meme some 20 years ago when playing Warcraft 3. It was a cheat code. When you typed "AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs", you won because all your enemy's base were belong to you. All the cheat codes in this game were memes, including ISeeDeadPeople, WhosYourDaddy, and TheIsNoSpoon.

"All your base are belong to us" always reminds me of J. R. Oppenheimer's "Now I am become death". It's always bothered me why he worded it like that. I remember I read something about it being an archaic form of the present perfect that uses be instead of have as its auxiliary verb, and it's just a coincidence that the past participle of become is also become. I'd like to [STRIKE]hear[/STRIKE] read what you think about his sentence.
