Possible problems for learners Solutions to possible problems

Some letters in English are unreliable and Learners need lots of practice in identifying and
have more than one sound. The letter w is producing the sounds in words.
an unreliable letter. It makes the voiced
sound w as in walk, it is voiceless at the end
of words such as yellow and when
combined with the letter h makes a /hw/
sound as in whisper.
