Cevap

The word 'chief' contains the same pure vowel sound (/iː/) as the underlined section in 'quay'.
The word 'quay' is phonetically transcribed as /kiː/, in which the letter combination 'ay' represents the long pure vowel sound /iː/. Among the choices, 'chief' (/tʃiːf/) also contains the long monophthong /iː/, making it the exact sound match.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the phonetic pronunciation of the target word
The word 'quay' is pronounced as /kiː/, where the underlined letters 'ay' produce the long pure vowel sound /iː/.
Recognizing rare spelling patterns is necessary to determine the exact monophthong sound.
2
Analyze the primary vowel sound in each option
'chief' has /iː/, 'day' has /eɪ/, 'pin' has /ɪ/, and 'quite' has /aɪ/.
Comparing phonetic transcriptions isolates the option sharing the target monophthong.
3
Select the option with the matching long monophthong sound
'chief' is the correct match as both 'quay' and 'chief' feature the /iː/ sound.
Both words contain the long front unrounded pure vowel /iː/.
