About This Spelling List: Longer oi and oy words

When it comes to longer words, the rules for using oi and oy are the same as with shorter words. For words with more than one syllable, use oi in the middle of a syllable, such as in appoint and moisture. On the other hand, use oy at the end of a word or syllable - like in destroy and voyage.
