WHAT DOES DIAPHONIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Diaphoneme

In linguistics, a diaphoneme or diaphone is an abstract phonological unit that identifies a correspondence between related sounds of two or more varieties. For example, the vowel that constitutes the English word eye /aɪ/ is pronounced differently depending on dialect but is considered the same by speakers. Diaphonology studies the realization of diaphones across dialects, and is important if an orthography is to be adequate for more than one dialect of a language. In historical linguistics, it is concerned with the reflexes of an ancestral phoneme as a language splits into dialects, such as the modern realizations of Old English /oː/.

Definition of diaphonic in the English dictionary
