What is the most common phoneme in English language?

The most common phoneme in the English language is the vowel sound /ə/ (the schwa).

It's the sound in words like:

* about

* ago

* even

* in

* open

* upon

While it's not written with the same letter every time, it's the most frequently occurring sound in English.
