What is a phoneme?
According to Google research, the definition of "phoneme" is: any of the perceptually distinct units of sound in a specified language that distinguish one word from another, for example p, b, d, and t in the English words pad, pat, bad, and bat.
In fact, a phoneme is not any of the perceptually distinct units of sound in a specified language that distinguish one word from another. We distinguish words by letters instead of phonemes. If that is the case, then we cannot explain why there are homonyms, for example, to, too, and two.
Phonemes are represented by International Phonetic Alphabets, rather than English letters.

什么是音素？
谷歌给“音素”的定义是：语言中用于区分单词的，感知上的不同声音单元，例如英文单词pad，pat，bad，bat中的p，b，d，t。
实际上，音素不是语言中用于区分单词的不同声音单元。我们区分单词使用的是字母，不是音素。如果是使用音素，那么我们就无法解释，为什么会有同音单词，例如 to，too，two。
音素是国际音标代表的读音，不是英文字母代表的读音
