SESSION NO. 3: Pronunciation of vowels (Minimal Pairs)

In English, it is very important to pronounce vowels correctly. English has an extensive vocabulary, but many words are monosyllabic. If we don't pronounce vowels correctly, we risk making a mistake in the meaning we want to infer. A minimal pair is a pair of words which have different meanings, but their pronunciation is almost the same: the only difference (minimal) is one sound.

Beat and bit are examples of minimal pairs.

Can you come up with more examples?
