Does ear have the same vowel sound as earth?

No, the words "ear" and "earth" do not have the same vowel sound. In phonetics, "ear" has the vowel sound /ɪər/ (as in "beer"), while "earth" has the vowel sound /ɜːr/ (as in "herd"). The vowel sound in "ear" is a diphthong, combining two vowel sounds, while the vowel sound in "earth" is a long monophthong.


Why does a bird chirp so loud?

Well relating on my own bird experience, there could be many reasons why a bird is chirping so loudly. It is usually because they want something, one of the most common reasons why birds do is because they want to be out side. If you have a bird and its in a cage, inside all day, then take the bird out side. You don't have to literally take it out of the cage and bring it outside because then it would fly away, but if you just carry the cage out side with the bird in it then set it in the sun, your bird will most likely stop chirping! another reason why your bird may be chirping is because, its probably low on food or water! Another reason why is because it needs some attention so give it some tender loving care! Hope this helps, i love u all (: -chloe tschirky

Why is it so quiet after a snowfall?

Two answers: first snow does not reflect sound well, it absorbs it so that much of what you would normally hear is muffled. Secondly, most animals seek shelter when it snows and therefore there are many less bird sounds immediately after a snow storm.
