Count the speech sounds in the following words. Draw a short line for each speech sound you can identify (a "parking spot") and, using conventional symbols as best you can, write the separate sounds in each word.
| Word | Phonemes |
|---|---|
| ace | /ā / /s/ |
| nose | /n/ /ō/ /z/ |
| say | /s/ /ā/ |
EXERCISE 2: Why Phonemes Are Elusive
- Does the phoneme /t/ sound and feel the same or different in tag, stag, water, and passed?
- Does the phoneme /k/ sound and feel the same or different in cat, scat, pinky, and tack?
- Does the phoneme /æ/ (ă) sound and feel the same or different in add, and, and approve?
- Look in a mirror or look at a partner and say the word pairs below:
- see, so
- cheese, choose
- zebra, zone
EXERCISE 3: Identify the Third Phoneme

- cape, kick, chord, quit, ax, antique
- flew, blue, moo, do, canoe, rumor, rude
- glad, glade, luggage, many, walk, was, watch, ant
