Complete the statement below by identifying a word that features the indicated diphthong sound.

Cevap:The word that contains the diphthong sound /aɪ/, as heard in the word 'my', is 【height】.

The blank is completed with any English word containing the diphthong sound /aɪ/, such as 'height', 'kite', or 'fly'.

Any word containing the phonetic glide /aɪ/ (such as 'height', 'kite', or 'fly') correctly demonstrates the /aɪ/ diphthong sound.

Identify the target sound /aɪ/.

The target phonetic sound /aɪ/ is a diphthong gliding from the open front vowel sound /a/ towards the near-close front vowel sound /ɪ/.

Recognizing the auditory glide helps distinguish diphthongs from pure monophthong vowel sounds.

Select an appropriate word containing this phonetic glide.

Words such as 'height', 'light', 'kite', or 'fly' produce the exact /aɪ/ diphthong sound despite having different spelling patterns.

English oral tests evaluate sound recognition rather than spelling alignment.
