Question

what is the anwser

Answer 1

diphthong

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/diphthong

(Technically, "diphthong" denotes the combination of the two SOUNDS. The more general term for two LETTERS combined to indicate one sound, whether a consonant sound or vowel sound is a "digraph"... consonantal examples: th, sh, ph.)

Answer 2

Yes, a diphthong, but that's the combination of two vowels, not the whole word. (Properly, a combination of two vowels is a diphthong only if it creates a sound that isn't represented by a single vowel in that language, so ai and ea, for instance, aren't diphthongs in English, but au, oi, and ou are.)

Answer 3

A pair of letters representing a single speech sound, as "ea" in "meat" is called a "digraph."

A diphthong is two vowel sounds that blend together, and is often spelled with one vowel character. For example, when you say the word "mice", the vowel sound starts out as "ah" and ends as "ee."

Answer 4
