In this lesson, students learn to reproduce the /i/ sound (as in "heat"). They practice writing and producing the sound through various tasks and compare /i/ and /ɪ/ (e.g., heat/hit). Includes a pronunciation diagram and audio.

Please note that we use the International Phonetic Alphabet to represent sounds on our site. This lesson is based on the typical North American pronunciation of /i/ (also known as "long E"). Pronunciation of this sound may differ by country and/or region.
