Another aspect of Test of Orals which students must be very familiar with is rhyme. Rhyme occurs when words end in same sound. To be more precise, two words rhyme with each other when they have:
- Same vowel ending.
Example: go – know
do – sue
buy – thigh
- Same final consonants (or consonant cluster sequence)
Example: worst – burst
count – amount
just – dust
- Same final vowel and consonant.
Example: half – laugh
receive- deceive
