4 Ways to Make the Long O Vowel Sound


Long O vowel words come in many different varieties. They can be familiar words with multiple syllables such as the words "omit" and "yoga". They can also be shorter words with only a few letters such as: ago and so. Most words that end in the letter "o" express a long vowel sound on that last letter. You also have words that possess both the long and short vowel O such as in the word "robot".


There are four common ways the long "o" vowel sound can be given off. The most common way for this sound to form happens with words that end in the letter "e" with an adjacent letter "o". The vowel-consonant combination is referred to as "o-e". You can find this sound in words such as: joke, bone, and stove. Another common location for the sound is found in words that have the vowel group of "oa". You can find this in words such as: goal, loan, and toast. Words that end in the vowel consonant team "-ow" also express a long o sound. You can see this in words such as: row, arrow, and below. The least common vowel pair that gives off this sound is the vowel team "-oe". This is evident in the words: toe, woe, and hoe.
