Explanation:

Analyze the definition of phonemes and letters

The English alphabet consists of 26 letters, but these letters combine to produce approximately 44 distinct sounds, or phonemes.

Evaluate the statement

Because there are about 44 phonemes rather than 26, and they do not correspond one-to-one with the letters of the alphabet, the statement is false.
