"Boat" is a word with a vowel digraph, with the "oa" representing a single vowel sound.
A split digraph is when a vowel digraph is split by a consonant, such as the 'e' at the end of a word making the vowel say its name as in "time" or "hope." It occurs when an 'e' at the end of a word changes the short vowel sound to a long vowel sound.
The word "your" contains a vowel pair (ou) rather than a vowel digraph. Vowel pairs are two adjacent vowels that each make their own distinct sound, while digraphs are two letters that make a single sound.

A vowel digraph is two vowels that are written together in a word, but only one sound is produced. Examples include "ai" in "rain" and "ee" in "tree".
A vowel digraph typically makes one sound, which is a unique sound that is different from the individual sounds of the vowels in the digraph. Examples include the "ai" in "rain" making the long /ā/ sound, or the "ea" in "leaf" making the long /ē/ sound.
