Choose from the option the word that has the same consonant sound as the represented by the letter(s) underlined.
Thank?
Answer Details
The letter(s) underlined in "thank" are "th," which represents a unique consonant sound that is not found in many other words. However, the word that has the same consonant sound as "th" is "thought." Both "thank" and "thought" contain the "th" consonant sound, which is pronounced by placing the tip of the tongue behind the top front teeth and blowing air through the gap between the tongue and teeth. The other options, "though," "Thames," and "Thomas," do not have the same consonant sound as "thank."
