Is a double oo a diphthong or a short vowel or a long vowel?

The OO pair is a digraph. It could only be considered a diphthong when it is "short." The long OO is a single sound like other long vowels. The pair can also rarely have the sound of a short U (blood). The long sound is the OO sound (cool, moon, boot) and the same as some words with a long U (dune, flute, rule) that have no yoo sound. The short OO is an oo-ah sound as in book, good, and foot, also made by O in wolf and by OU in could and should.

Words with a long OO include: U words with a silent E (tune, dude) UE words (due, clue) OU words (ghoul) Words with a YOO sound as in humid, human, mule, cute, feud, and fuel.
