Cevap

chalk
The word 'broad' (/brɔːd/) features the long pure vowel (monophthong) /ɔː/. Among the choices, 'chalk' (/tʃɔːk/) also contains the long pure vowel /ɔː/. Therefore, 'chalk' is the correct match.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the phonetic sound of the target word
The underlined vowel combination 'oa' in 'broad' is pronounced as the long pure vowel sound /ɔː/.
Although 'oa' usually produces the diphthong /əʊ/ in words like 'road' or 'boat', 'broad' is an exceptional spelling pattern that yields the monophthong /ɔː/.
2
Analyze the vowel sound in each alternative option
'groan' has /əʊ/, 'clock' has /ɒ/, 'chalk' has /ɔː/, and 'load' has /əʊ/.
In 'chalk', the letter combination 'al' represents the long pure vowel /ɔː/ (with a silent 'l').
3
Match the target monophthong with the correct option
Both 'broad' and 'chalk' contain the monophthong /ɔː/.
This demonstrates exact phonetic alignment between the two words.
