Description

Words that begin with the letters CON usually say /kɑn/ "KAHN" when they are stressed, and /kən/ "kn" when they are unstressed. For example, "content" the noun sounds like "KAHN tent" and "content" the adjective sounds like "kn TENT."


We'll do a mix and match listen and repeat practice with this set of verbs, adjectives and nouns:


consider, concerned, convey, concludes, content, connect


concept, content, context, conduct, concert, contacts
