You should underline the area where the long e sound is in the word. So, for instance, in the word compete, the underline should be under the e in "pete." In the word leaf, the underline should be under the "ea" in the middle of the word. The underline is added simply to emphasize where the long e sound is made within the word.

Pete contains the long vowel sound /i:/ In English the following vowel combinations often produce this sound: ee, such as in three, tree, free, wheel, or sheet ea, such as in meat, treat, wheat, bleat, or seat. e plus consonant plus e, such as in mete or Pete. y in a two syllable word, such as fifty, windy, or stingy. Sometimes the i can give the /i:/ sound in words of foreign origin such as piano, siesta, or sushi.
