The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) uses symbols to represent speech sounds, while the Roman alphabet is used to write English letters. The IPA provides a specific symbol for each unique sound in any language, whereas the Roman alphabet has a limited number of letters that represent both sounds and spelling conventions in English. IPA symbols aim to accurately represent any language's sounds, while the Roman alphabet is specific to English and may not capture the nuances of pronunciation in other languages.
