Alphabet Vowel Short


The English language alone can provide a list of short vowel words that could seem to be never ending. A short vowel word is any word that does not allow the vowel within it to generate that vowel’s long vowel sound. For instance, the word bug is a short vowel word, because there is no long U sound. A word doesn’t necessarily have to have three letters to be a short vowel word, but it makes for the easiest example, and three-lettered words make up the bulk of any list of words with short vowels a person may comprise.
