    Actually, I think most of the American styles Chinese used by now......Besides, many people have accents, and the real way to practice a pure accent is not how well you learn phonetic transcription, but how you have to listen to the pronunciation of foreigners repeatedly. For example, if you want to learn an American accent, you can watch more American dramas, and it's not interesting to spend so much energy on phonetic transcription.

    The IPA is actually similar to kk, but there are some differences in writing and pronunciation, and it is best to learn pure American language. If you are used to the IPA from the beginning, it may be more difficult to change it later. It's better to find a good direction as soon as you get started.

    As for the phonetic alphabet chart, you should find some information on English forums. I didn't formally learn phonetic transcription when I was learning English, so there was no need to spend a lot of effort on it. **Some electronic dictionaries (I myself am used to using lingoes, it seems that Jinshan is more commonly used), look it up when you don't know the word, listen to other people's pronunciation, and then look at the phonetic transcription, and you can find your way out if you see more.

    My suggestion is: learn 20% of the phonetic alphabet at the beginning, and many of them will be realized little by little in the future study. It shouldn't take more than one lesson to learn phonetic alphabet!

    If you want to learn American English, you still have to learn it, if you learn it, you will find that there are a lot of American tongue curls that are completely different from the British one, and if you read according to the International Phonetic Alphabet, your pronunciation will be biased, unless you follow the standard American pronunciation imitation, not look at the phonetic transcription reading.

    Learning English is not learning phonetic transcription, and learning Chinese characters has to learn Hanyu Pinyin. English itself is phonetic transcription!

    You're right, I personally believe that phonetic transcription is crucial in the process of learning. Although most children learn English for exams, they don't think about whether they want to apply it in the future. Even so, it is important to learn phonetic alphabet, and I think there are at least three reasons:

    1.Because English word formation is very regular, many phonetic transcriptions have fixed letter correspondence, so learning phonetic transcription is conducive to memorizing words, and even guessing the spelling of words according to pronunciation;

    3.It is conducive to cultivating a sense of language, and after the pronunciation is correct, you can practice reading texts, and on this basis, cultivating a sense of language is beneficial to the reading of passages and the learning of sentence composition.

    If you study English professionally in the future, the impact of good phonetic transcription from elementary school will be even greater.

    1. The exchange tone of the phonetic transcription is different.

    For example: [ and][r], last position in compare, British [k m pe (r)], American [k m per]. It's a difference.

    2. The pronunciation is different.

    The English pronunciation is clearly pronounced with the two phonemes "t" and "d", but in the American pronunciation, the "d" and "t" are often blurred into a single d sound.

    The American phonetic alphabet is designed to be used as a standardized representation of spoken sounds, and can record the pronunciation of most national languages. The British phonetic alphabet uses only a part of it to indicate the English pronunciation, and the same is true of the kk phonetic transcription of the American language, but only a part of the International Phonetic Alphabet is used.

    International Phonetic Alphabet. The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA, International Phonetic Alphabet) is a set of phonetic symbols that can be used internationally by linguists of the International Phonetic Association in 1888.

    The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), as the name suggests, is designed to mark the pronunciation of various international languages, and many linguists modify the IPA to mark the language they study, so there are many kinds of IPA.

    The content of the English Phonetic Alphabet is derived from the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), but it is different from the International Phonetic Alphabet. In some countries and regions, the English language curriculum uses the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) to phonetize words, such as China's Daye Lilu, Taiwan, and Russia.

    1. Vowel part:

    1) Vowels: [i:], i], [u:], u], [e], [

    2) Diphthongs: [ei], [ai], [i], [u], i ], au], [u].

    2. Consonant part:

    p]、[b]、 t]、[d]、[k]、[g]、[f]、[v]、[s]、[z]、[

    tr]、[dr]、[ts]、[dz]、[m]、[n]、[h]、[l]、[r]、[j]、[w]

    Clear consonants are phonetic transcriptions that do not vibrate the vocal cords: [p] [t][k][f][s][ tr][ts][h].

    Voiced consonants are phonetic transcriptions that cause vocal cord vibrations, and all but clear consonants are voiced consonants.

    Memorize 48 IPA unit tones with a total of twelve, four, two, six, front, middle and back. The diphthongs are also easy to memorize, and the mouth is concentrated in eight wholes. There are twenty-eight consonants in total, eight pairs of one clear and seven voiced, and four pairs are also included. There are clear consonants without air, and there are voiced voiced consonants, and the pronunciation characteristics should be mastered.

It's best to find someone who knows the phonetic alphabet to teach you how to read, otherwise it is not easy to understand just by relying on the description of the book, and I recommend a book called Xu Guozhang English, which is about phonetic transcription in front of this book. If you work hard, you will probably learn it in a week. When I first went to school, I learned it within a week.
