1. Thanksgiving Holidays
Spelling List 11
Strive Info Night
Final stable syllables always make the same sound although they may be spelled in unexpected ways ( t-i-o-n as in nation). Final stable syllables with consonant-l-e are unaccented syllables that fall at the end of a base word. Some believe these syllables make the schwa sound of short u, others argue that there is no vowel sound.
stumble
tremble
noodle
handle
gargle
simple
crumple
sparkle
Before /g/ or /k/ the letter n makes a different sound. It makes the same sound as the n-g in song. The /ng/ sound is halfway between /n/ and /g/. Place your tongue as if you were going to make the /g/ sound and make the /n/ sound instead. Funny, huh?
  jungle
jingle
crinkle
twinkle
High frequency “red” words are spelled in unexpected ways.
haven’t
weren’t
