Zorluk: OrtaMonophthongs (Pure Vowels)

Match each word containing an underlined spelling pattern to the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) symbol that correctly represents its monophthong (pure vowel) sound.

  • Plait/æ/
  • Quay/i:/
  • Bury/e/
  • Calm/ɑ:/

Cevap

'Plait' pairs with /æ/, 'Quay' pairs with /i:/, 'Bury' pairs with /e/, and 'Calm' pairs with /ɑ:/.
Each word features an irregular spelling pattern for its monophthong sound: 'plait' contains the short front vowel /æ/, 'quay' contains the long front vowel /i:/, 'bury' contains the short front vowel /e/, and 'calm' contains the long back vowel /ɑ:/.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Transcribe the phonetic vowel sound of the underlined portion in each target word.
'plait' is transcribed as /plæt/, 'quay' as /ki:/, 'bury' as /ˈberi/, and 'calm' as /kɑːm/.
Identifying the precise RP monophthong symbol requires overriding spelling traps and recognizing irregular orthographic patterns.
2
Match each target word to its corresponding IPA monophthong symbol.
Plait → /æ/, Quay → /i:/, Bury → /e/, Calm → /ɑ:/.
Each pair correctly aligns the irregular spelling pattern with its standard monophthong representation.
