About this word list ▼
About this word list ▲
In English, the way we write the ch sound can sometimes be a bit tricky.
While we usually use the letters ch to spell this sound, for example in words like church or chat, in some words, like watch or catch, we use tch instead. This happens when there's a short sound just before the ch sound.
This rule applies to longer words too For instance, the word kitchen has a short /i/ sound followed by tch and the word butcher has a short /u/ sound followed by tch.
So, if you ever hear a short vowel sound before a ch sound, you will know to look out for the tch spelling. You can use the different spelling activities and games that come with list to test yourself on this rule.
