IPA For English
English language, English phonology is the system of speech sounds used in spoken English. Like many other languages, English has wide variation in pronunciation, both History of the English language, historically and from List of dialects of the English language, dialect to dialect. In general, however, the regional dialects of English share a largely similar (but not identical) phonological system.

Isabel Maria De Alcântara, Duchess Of Goiás
Isabel Maria de Alcântara Brasileira, 1st and only Duchess of Goiás (3 May 1824 – 3 November 1898), was a Brazilian noble, the recognized daughter, born out of wedlock, of Emperor Pedro I of Brazil and Domitila de Castro, Marchioness of Santos, having been baptized on 31 May 1824.
