One of the early steps in the process of bringing God\u2019s Word into another language is figuring out which letters should be used to represent the sounds of that language. For this reason, Phonemics plays a vital role in discipleship and church planting since it allows God\u2019s Word to be written in another language.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Do you think that \u201cc\u201d is a useless letter filling in for \u201ck\u201d in \u201ccat,\u201d \u201cs\u201d in \u201ccedar,\u201d and \u201ct\u201d or \u201csh\u201d in \u201cocean\u201d?
