Cevap

The word 'swan' contains the same pure vowel sound /ɒ/ as 'yacht'.
In the word 'yacht', the letter 'a' represents the short monophthong /ɒ/. Among the given options, the word 'swan' also contains the pure vowel /ɒ/ (/swɒn/), making it the exact sound match.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the phonetic sound of the underlined letter in the target word.
In 'yacht', the underlined letter 'a' is pronounced as the short monophthong (pure vowel) /ɒ/.
Despite the spelling with 'a', the silent 'ch' leaves the vowel as the short open back unrounded vowel /ɒ/.
2
Analyze the vowel sound in each of the option words.
'swan' = /swɒn/ (/ɒ/), 'yawn' = /jɔːn/ (/ɔː/), 'chat' = /tʃæt/ (/æ/), 'yoke' = /jəʊk/ (/əʊ/).
Comparing the IPA transcriptions helps isolate the exact matching monophthong.
3
Select the option that matches the target vowel sound /ɒ/.
'swan' is the matching word.
Both 'yacht' and 'swan' share the identical monophthong /ɒ/.
