Vowel Sounds

  • The five vowels are: a, e, i, o, u.
  • Words beginning with vowel sounds: onion, apple, igloo, elephant, urn.
  • Tricky: "cute" starts with a consonant sound (k), "mahout" starts with a consonant sound (m).

Rule: Listen to the SOUND, not just the letter. Some vowel letters make consonant sounds.

Subjective and Objective Pronouns

Singular Plural
Subjective I, you, he, she, it we, you, they
Objective me, you, him, her, it us, you, them
  • Subjective = the doer (subject of the sentence): "She is kind."
  • Objective = the receiver (object of the sentence): "Give it to her."

Quick Practice:

  1. (I / Me) went to the market. → I (subjective)
  2. The teacher helped (we / us). → us (objective)
  3. (She / Her) is my best friend. → She (subjective)

  5. (They / Them) are playing cricket. → They (subjective)

Articles "a" and "an" with Mute Consonants

  • When the first consonant is silent (mute), focus on the sound of the next letter.
  • "an hour" — "h" is silent, the sound starts with a vowel ("ou").
  • "an honest man" — "h" is silent, the sound starts with a vowel ("o").
  • "a knight" — "k" is silent, but the sound starts with a consonant ("n").
