English has many words with spellings that don't seem to match their pronunciations. Can you correctly match all these words based on their common pronunciation?
Pick words that have the same vowel sound at the end, even if syllables don't align.
Making this quiz broke my brain. Looking at a list of words, I thought, “well chough and bough aren’t common enough for this quiz, I don’t even know what they mean. … … Oh, BOUGH!!!”
Yeah, it’s the “proper” pronunciation from the 1700s, while the London accent took over after that. Older colonies of Britain all use the old way, newer ones use the London accent pronunciation, including Australia!
