We are going to focus on three English diphthongs:


All of them are diphthongs ending in /ɪ/. As you know, you have to learn words and their pronunciation together in English since the spelling often contradicts the pronunciation.

For example, let's have a look at the words:

wait / weight

They have different spellings but both are pronounced exactly the same!: /wɛɪt/

Try to place each of these words under their correct diphthong. Use our robot whenever you need it!

choice, life, price, face, enjoy, table

/aɪ/

/ɛɪ/

/ɔɪ/
