What are some examples of phonetic languages and how do they differ from non-phonetic languages?

Phonetic languages, like English and Spanish, use a consistent relationship between sounds and written symbols. Non-phonetic languages, such as Chinese and Japanese, use characters that represent words or ideas rather than individual sounds. Phonetic languages are easier to learn to read and write because the written symbols directly correspond to the sounds of the spoken language.
