In English, the distinction between short and long vowel sounds is often determined by the spelling pattern in a word. The short "a" sound is typically found in words like "cat" or "bat," where the letter "a" is followed by a consonant. On the other hand, the long "a" sound is usually represented by a silent "e" at the end of a word, like in "cake" or "plane." However, there are exceptions and irregularities in English pronunciation, so learning from a dictionary or language resource can provide more specific guidance.

A short "o" sound is usually found in closed syllables where the vowel is followed by a consonant (e.g., "hot").
