SYLLABLES An unbroken sound unit having one vowel
SYLLABLES An unbroken sound unit having one vowel and accompanying consonants. • Syllables differ from phonemes in that a phoneme is the smallest unit of sound; the number of syllables in a word is unrelated to the number of phonemes it contains. For example: /b/, /k/, /t/, /ch/, /sh/, /ee/, /ai/, /igh/, /ear/ are all phonemes. The word ‘chat’ is made up of three phonemes (/ch/ /a/ /t/). The word ‘light’ is made up of three phonemes (/l/ /igh/ /t/). However, both the words ‘chat’ and ‘light’ have only one syllable each. • https: //www. theschoolrun. com/what-is-a-syllable
• In a word the number of vowels identify the number of syllables. • For example: • Cat has one syllable (words of one syllable are monosyllabic) • Water has two syllables (wa / ter) • Computer has three syllables (com / pu / ter) • Category has four syllables (cat / e / gor / y) • Syllables in KS 1 English

• Rule for y; • Y sound as vowel. But when it comes with a vowel sound at the end it mixes up and is not produces separately. But if it comes alone not with a vowel then it is produced like a separate vowel. • Like. / Employ/ and /university/. • https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=Vu 6 UVwk. Ugzc
