About this word list ▲
The split digraph u-e is a common way to spell the long /oo/ sound. You’ll find it in words like flute and rude. This spelling follows the pattern where a silent e at the end of the word helps change the vowel sound in the middle of the word from short to long.
Learning to identify when u-e makes the long /oo/ sound will improve your spelling confidence. Try a Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check spelling activity with these words to help you learn them.
