Cevap

The word with the same consonant sound as the underlined letters in 'chalet' is 'champagne'.
The underlined digraph 'ch' in the French loanword 'chalet' is pronounced as /ʃ/. Among the choices, 'champagne' is also a French loanword in which 'ch' is pronounced as the same consonant sound /ʃ/.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the consonant sound represented by the underlined letters in the target word.
In the word 'chalet', the letters 'ch' represent the voiceless postalveolar fricative sound /ʃ/.
'Chalet' is a loanword from French where 'ch' is articulated as /ʃ/ rather than the typical English /tʃ/.
2
Analyze the phonetic realization of the 'ch' digraph in each of the four option words.
'champion' has /tʃ/, 'chaos' has /k/, 'champagne' has /ʃ/, and 'choir' has /k/.
Determining the correct International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) representation for each option reveals which word matches the target sound.
3
Match the target sound /ʃ/ with the corresponding option.
'champagne' is the only option that also features the /ʃ/ consonant sound.
Like 'chalet', 'champagne' retains its French origin pronunciation where 'ch' yields /ʃ/.
