What is a "digraph"?
A digraph is a pair of letters that together represent a single sound or phoneme in a language. This combination can consist of two consonants, two vowels, or a consonant and a vowel. For example, in English, the "ch" in "chair" represents a unique sound that is not the sum of the individual letters' sounds. Similarly, the "ea" in "bread" produces a distinct vowel sound. Digraphs are important in phonetics and linguistics because they help illustrate how sounds are represented in writing, contributing to the understanding of spelling patterns and pronunciation rules in different languages.
Example
In the word " ship, " the letters " sh " form a digraph representing the sound /ʃ/.
A "ship" szóban a "sh" betűk egy digráfot alkotnak, amely az /ʃ/ hangot képviseli.
Children learning to read often practice recognizing common digraphs like " ch " and " ph. "
A gyerekek, akik olvasni tanulnak, gyakran gyakorolják a közönséges digráfok, mint például a "ch" és a "ph" felismerését.
