44 Sounds of English
We start learning English with 26 letters which are called the Alphabets. Though there are only 29 letters we have altogether 44 sounds in English. You know why? Because Many letters in English have more than one sound. Single letter represents more than one sound and one sound can be represented using different letters. Confused? Let me put it in simple examples:
letter g has two sounds – /g/ and /j/
the sound /k/ – can be written as letter c or letter k
Below is the list of 44 sound in English Language. The 44 Sounds includes 24 consonant sounds, 12 vowel sounds and 8 dipthong sounds.
Having complete knowledge of phonics is always beneficial. I hope you had a great time knowing all the 44 sounds in English Language. If so, show us some love and drop a comment and share the post.
