Does anyone here know if there exists a font that combines the
letters that make phonemes, be they digraphs, dipthongs, or just
multiple letters (oo, ee, ea)?
For example, the word "cough" would have three phonemic chunks: c -
ou - gh.
But the phonetic representations of the short o phoneme (ou) and
the /f/ (gh) would be squished up against each other so they would
be recognized as a chunk, not as separate letters? Does this make
sense?
I suggest you post your question at

XeTeX is a typesetting system based on TeX, with a emphasis on the
use of "exotic" writing systems. You question is not a TeX question,
but you might find in this mailing list somebody who knows of an
OpenType font with phonetic glyphs.
If you are interested, an introduction on XeTeX can be found at
http://cern.ch/XML/lgc2/xetexmain.pdf
do not feel obliged to read all of it, this is just to give you some
perspective on what XeTeX is about and why grouping characters into
glyphs (in arabic languages, for instance) is part of the
preoccupations of the people behind XeTeX.
Best regards,
François
