From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that has the same consonant sound(s) as the one represented by the letter(s) underlined.
sign
- A. fawn
- B. thing
- C. hymn
- D. single
Correct Answer: C. hymn
Explanation
The underlined consonant sound in 'sign' is 'gn'. In English phonetics, 'gn' is often silent when it comes at the end of words. The word 'hymn' also has this 'n' sound silent. Therefore, 'hymn' has the same consonant sound as the one represented by the underlined letters in 'sign'.
