    Segmental features refer to individual sounds like vowels and consonants that are arranged sequentially to form words. Suprasegmental features refer to properties that span multiple sounds like stress, pitch, and intonation that accompany pronunciation and affect how segments are produced. Both segmental and suprasegmental features are types of phonemes associated with letters and useful for speech recognition, but segmental features involve individual pronunciation of sounds while suprasegmental features involve properties that span more than one sound segment.
