This week we are looking at the way to spell the /j/ sound at the ends of words. We noticed that if there is a short vowel sound in the word, the /j/ sound is spelled "dge". If there is a long vowel sound, the /j/ sound is spelled with a "ge". We noticed that r, l, and n often make the sound of the vowel ambiguous, or hard to tell whether it is long or short. With words with those letters just before the /j/ sound, we spell the /j/ sound with just a "ge".
