What does it mean when a word has the same vowel sound?

Answer 1

Vowel sounds in words can be the same even if the actual vowels (or vowel pairs) are different. For example, the U in the word put with a U has the same sound as foot and good. The Y in type has the same long I sound as the I in wipe or light.

Vowel sounds can be made by several combinations of letters.

In the case of the long O sound (oh), it can appear as these spellings:

- O (go, comb, cold)

- O with a silent E (note, hole)

- OE (doe, foe)

- OA (loan, boat)

- OUGH (dough, though)

- OW (flow, mow, row)

- French spellings eau, eaux, and aux (beau, faux, bureau).

Answer 2

When a word has the same vowel sound, it means that the vowel sound in each word is pronounced the same way. This can create a rhyming effect or add emphasis or rhythm to the words in a sentence. The use of words with the same vowel sound can contribute to the overall sound and flow of a piece of writing or speech.
