Pair each target word on the left with the word on the right that shares its precise diphthong sound.

  • choirsleight
  • gaugefete
  • broochfoam
  • scarceglare

Cevap

The correct pairings are: 'choir' matches 'sleight' (/aɪ/); 'gauge' matches 'fete' (/eɪ/); 'brooch' matches 'foam' (/əʊ/); and 'scarce' matches 'glare' (/eə/).
The correct pairings are established by matching the underlying diphthongs: 'choir' and 'sleight' both feature /aɪ/; 'gauge' and 'fete' both feature /eɪ/; 'brooch' and 'foam' both feature /əʊ/; and 'scarce' and 'glare' both feature /eə/.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Transcribe the phonetic vowel sounds of the target words on the left.
'choir' yields /aɪ/, 'gauge' yields /eɪ/, 'brooch' yields /əʊ/, and 'scarce' yields /eə/.
Identifying accurate international phonetic alphabet (IPA) transcriptions overcomes deceptive orthographic spellings such as 'oo' in 'brooch' or 'au' in 'gauge'.
2
Transcribe the phonetic vowel sounds of the comparison words on the right.
'sleight' yields /aɪ/, 'fete' yields /eɪ/, 'foam' yields /əʊ/, and 'glare' yields /eə/.
Determining the primary diphthongs in the right column enables direct one-to-one matching.
3
Correlate each target word with its exact diphthong counterpart.
All four target words align precisely with their corresponding diphthong match in the right column.
Matching identical phonetic diphthong classifications completes the exercise correctly.
