Phonemes are (in essence) sounds. They are used for audible communication, in language. In many languages, they are tied to letters on a letter-by-letter and/or a lettergroup-by-lettergroup basis, so that each letter or a certain combination of letters corresponds to a specific sound. Note that in a language, the same letter/lettergroup may be communicated via different phonemes by different speakers (i.e. varying by dialect).
