Identify the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) symbol representing the underlined pure vowel sound in the given word.

Cevap:The monophthong sound represented by the letter 'u' in the word 'put' is written phonetically as /【ʊ】/.

The correct IPA symbol for the pure vowel sound in 'put' is /ʊ/.

The letter 'u' in the word 'put' represents the short, lax, near-close near-back rounded pure vowel /ʊ/, as also found in 'foot', 'look', and 'book'.

Pronounce the target word and isolate the underlined vowel sound.

The letter 'u' in 'put' makes a short, lax back rounded pure vowel sound.

Isolating the sound distinguishes it from long pure vowels and diphthongs.

Map the isolated sound to its corresponding International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) monophthong symbol.

The short vowel sound heard in 'put', 'foot', and 'could' is transcribed as /ʊ/.

Standard IPA transcription represents this specific short pure vowel sound with the symbol /ʊ/.
