False. All languages are not comprised of the same phonemes. Phonemes are the distinct units of sound used to differentiate words in a language. The number of phonemes varies significantly across different languages. Some languages have a relatively small number of phonemes, while others have a much larger inventory. Furthermore, even though there may be some overlap in the phonemes used in various languages, each language has a unique combination of phonemes that characterizes its sounds and makes it distinct from other languages. The differing phonemic inventories in languages contribute to the wide variety of accents, pronunciations, and speech patterns found around the world, making language a diverse and fascinating aspect of human culture.

False. Different languages are made up of different phonemes. For example, English has 44 phonemes while Spanish has 34. Similarly, languages can vary in the number of vowel sounds they have and the length of each sound. For example, Japanese has five vowels whereas English has 11. Additionally, some languages contain click consonants which are not present in others. Thus, it is evident that languages are not comprised of the same phonemes.
