Diphthong correct answers Long vowel sounds where the tongue glides from one part of the
mouth to another in order to produce the sound.

Grapheme correct answers The written representation of a phoneme. Can be one letter or a
combination of letters. (The number of these in a word does not equate to the number of letters.)

Inflectional Affixes correct answers Suffixes that create plural nouns or allow verb agreement by
adding -s; create verb tense by adding -ed, -en-, and -ing. These do not change the meaning of
the word or its part of speech.

phonological structure of words in one's language. This is an "umbrella" term that is used to refer

expression?")

sound(s) that comes after it. The graphic representation is called a phonogram.
