    Question

    Phonetic transcription for the word ‘hang’ is :

    A.

    |heing|

    B.

    |hӕŋ|

    C.

    |heng|

    D.

    |hǝɪŋ|

    Correct option is B


    The phonetic transcription for hang is |hӕŋ|. The vowel |ӕ| represents the short a sound, similar to the pronunciation in words like cat and bat, while |ŋ| represents the nasal ng sound.
    Information Booster:
    · The |ŋ| sound is a velar nasal, produced at the back of the mouth.
    · Words like long, song, and ring also have |ŋ|.
    · The vowel |ӕ| appears in man, hat, and sand.
    · The word hang does not contain a diphthong, making options (a) and (d) incorrect.
    · The IPA transcription removes confusion about silent letters or blended sounds.
