This article provides a chart with audio examples for phonetic vowel symbols. The symbols shown include those in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and added material. The chart is based on the official IPA vowel chart,[1] which maps the vowels according to the position of the tongue.

The International Phonetic Alphabet is an alphabetic system of phonetic notation based primarily on the Latin alphabet. It was devised by the International Phonetic Association as a standardized representation of the sounds of spoken language.[2]

In the IPA, vowel sounds are defined as sound which occurs at a syllable center.[3]
