@Blink01 Hahahaha I've seen this alphabetical system english and that's drive me so crazy but I'm never knew name of it. In fact when I'm studied Translation English-Spanish and I used (I'm still use it) an well-known app It's call wordreference a good one I guess, because I can take a look in the Usa and British pronuncations as well. Sometime I feel go crazy with some pronuncitations that doesn't come up in dictionaries like: Interview, interception (innerviews, innerception t sound mute), as well as the passive voice. It's burn me out like hell hahahahaha

English (US)

@Freddie777 Ok, those missing T's are more common to US English, I don't know for sure that the UK doesn't use them. They are called a stop T. They are essentially a glottal stop. They have their own name because it occurs so often with T. Since I learned about them, I've come to realize that my accent uses them heavily. The other T you will hear in US English is the flap T. This is a T that sounds like a D. The UK doesn't do this. If you look at the US phonetic spelling for "better" it will have a V shaped Symbol below the T. That tells you when the flap T is used. Two T's in the middle of a word is almost always a flap T. You need to look at the dictionary for individual T's.
