The linguistic building blocks are the alphabets. They consist of a collection of letters that stand in for the various speech sounds we make. The English alphabet has 26 letters, from A to Z. Every letter is distinct in its sound and shape. Learning the alphabets helps children learn how to read and write as well as how words are formed. It’s like learning the alphabet by heart!
