Language pronunciation educational object

Abstract

The language pronunciation education equipment consists of N turntables and a central connector. The N turntables are of different sizes, and each turntable has multiple pronunciation symbols, where 2 <= N <= 15. The N turntables are pivotally connected by the central connector in ascending order of size, allowing each turntable to rotate independently. Through this structure, a learner can rotate the N turntables so that the pronunciation symbols on different turntables align with each other to form a syllable pronunciation sequence, guiding the learner to pronounce the syllables according to this sequence.
