Initial consonant blends are combinations of consonants that occur before a vowel that although blended can be segmented into their constituent sounds such as CR in crab, the FL in flower. Consonant blends represent a blending of sounds as opposed to digraphs which are combinations of letters that represent a single sound, or phoneme (such as the CH in chop). |
