There is no difference: an alphabet is a kind of phonetic writing, in which the signs stand for sounds. Another kind of phonetic writing is called a syllabary. Both are utterly unlike hieroglyphics and ideograms, which may contain phonetic elements. Some alphabetic languages, English and French, for example, may have changed the way words are pronounced while retaining their old spelling, in which case a truly phonetic spelling would differ from the received spelling (see the International Phonetic Alphabet, or IPA). But that does not make the alphabet any less a phonetic writing system.
A phonetic writing system uses symbols to represent individual sounds (phonemes) in a language, while an alphabetic writing system uses symbols to represent individual speech sounds and their combinations (graphemes). Phonetic systems are more consistent in their representation of sounds, while alphabetic systems typically represent a mix of sounds and grammatical elements.
One advantage of pictographic and phonetic writing systems is that they can convey meaning across different languages and cultures by using visual symbols or sounds. This can facilitate communication and understanding between diverse groups of people.
The correct spelling is "phonetic." Phonetics refers to the study of the sounds of human speech.
It is called phonetic spelling. Phonetics is the study of the sounds of human speech, and phonetic spelling involves writing words as they are pronounced.
Chinese writing primarily uses characters that represent whole words or concepts, whereas Japanese writing uses a combination of characters (kanji) borrowed from Chinese, as well as two native phonetic scripts (hiragana and katakana) which represent sounds. Additionally, Japanese writing often includes a mix of all three scripts within the same text.
Chinese does not use any alphabets. Chinese writing is not alphabetic, rather, it is pictographic.
Ordinary people call it alphabetic. Scholars also follow suit.
Alphabetic writing systems can be traced back to nature.
