The average word length, in the English language as it is used, is around 5. That means that shape is not a long word. I said English language as used because short words like "the" will appear often.
"Shape" is a short word, as it is only one syllable.
No, because the "e" in shape does not sound like to letter "e" as if you were saying it. If it had a long e, it would sound like shapy, but it doesn't. Therefore, the word shape does not have a long e.
The word "grape" has a long a sound. The "a" in grape is pronounced as /eɪ/, like in the word "shape."
Yes. The A has a long A as in drape and scrape. The E is silent.
The long trek put me in better shape.
A compound word that starts with shape could be shape up.
Shape is a one syllable word.
No, the word shape has one syllable.
The plural of shape is shapes.
The word rod has a short O sound, as in rob and god. (The long O is in road.)
The word "morph" comes from the Latin word meaning "shape". Therefore, the word "amorphous" means without shape or shapeless blob.
