When a vowel is followed by an r, it makes a special sound. These are called r-controlled vowels, or r-colored vowels. These phonemes are as follows:

Usually, /ar/ always sounds like the ar in car, /or/ always sounds like the or in for. The ir, er, and ur, sound the same as in bird, her, and fur. These all make a /ər/ sound.

Words ending in -le, such as little, require care.

If the vowel sound is short, there must be two consonants between the vowel and the -le.

Otherwise, one consonant is enough.

According to this simple Floss spelling rule, these letters double at the end of a word when they follow a short vowel sound.

Words like huff, puff, stuff are ‘f’ floss words.

Hills and pills are ‘l’ floss words. Grass and miss are ‘s’ floss words. Buzz and fuzz are ‘z’ floss words.

Floss Spelling Rules: Doubling F, L, S, and Z

If a short vowel word ends in the letter f, l,

s, or z, double the last letter.

Jeff will pass Buzz.
