Syllables Definitions Rhymes Quiz
Define syllables
noun- A syllable is the sound of a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) that is created when pronouncing the letters A, E, I, O, U, or Y.
- The letter "Y" is a vowel only if it creates an A, E, I, O, or U sound.
- When two (or more) vowels are next to each other, the number of syllables depends on the number of vowel sounds.
- If a vowel is silent, it is not counted as a syllable.
- The number of times that you hear the sound of a vowel is the number of syllables in a word.
- Does the word end with "le" or "les?" This is a syllable if the letter before the "le" is a consonant.
