A vowel is any speech sound in which there is free passage of air above the glottis. Pure vowel and monophthong both refer to vowels with unchanging tongue position. During the articulation of a diphthong, the tongue moves from one position to another. A digraph is a group of two letters representing a single monophthong. 39.

English high contains a single diphthong [a], with a gradual transition from [a] to []; French haï (“hated”) contains a sequence of two monophthongs [a + i], with a very rapid transition from one to the other (see also 3.09). 43. In the case of [i] the tongue movement is towards the centre of the vowel area; in the case of [a] and [a] it is from a lower (more open) to a higher (more close) position. 44. cord, card, cared, repertoire, Salisbury, courtesy.
