Letter Clusters
A) Vowel letter clusters
These are
the arrangements of the English Vowel letters.
The ‘aeiou’
in vertical matches with the ‘aeiou’ in horizontal. The following arrangements are the ‘aeiou’ in
vertical to go with the ‘aeiou’ in horizontal
(a) (e) (i) (o) (u)
(a) ae ai ao au
(e) ea ee ei eo eu
(i) ia ie ii io iu
(o) oa oe oi oo ou
(u) ua ue ui uo uu
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the
table above, we can regroup the Vowel letter clusters with the same letters but
different order together.
(a) (e) (i) (o) (u)
ae ai ao au
ea ia oa ua
ei eo eu
ie oe ue
oi ou
io uo
ui
iu
In
English, the common Vowel letter clusters are:
(These
are the double letter clusters. Double
‘e’ and double ’o’ are the common letter clusters.)
ee ii oo uu
The
knowledge of the Vowel letter clusters makes the spelling of the English words
so much easier. (8)
