How to Pronounce the Letter G

 

The other day my son comes to me and asks:

"How do you say this, mom?"

And he points to "GIF" on his tablet screen.

"Well, buddy, that's a tricky one," I shared. "There's actually a wide debate!"

So we begin discussing the Letter G and how it's pronounced differently in different words, like the G in "golf" sounds quite different than the G in "giraffe."

As you know, this happens a lot in English. 🙃

The marvelous thing is, like we learned with Pronouncing the Letter C, there's a pattern we can look for that will help us guess how the Letter G will sound in a word.

In this week's quick tip lesson, you'll learn about this pattern and we'll practice some G words together.

We'll solve the GIF debate too!

Let's dive in!
