From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that has the same consonant sound(s) as the one represented by the letter(s) underlined below.

heavy

Answer Details

The word that has the same consonant sound(s) as the one represented by the underlined letters in "heavy" is "beehive" (option C). The consonant sound being referred to here is the "v" sound. The letters "v" and "y" both represent this sound in the word "heavy". The word "beehive" also contains the "v" sound, specifically in the "v" and "h" consonant cluster in the middle of the word. The other options do not have the same consonant sound as "heavy". "Honour" and "heir" have the "h" sound but not the "v" sound. "When" has the "w" sound, which is not the same as the "v" sound. Therefore, the correct answer is "beehive" (option C).
