WAEC English 2022 Paper

Concept:The underlined consonant must be matched with the word that has exactly the same consonant sound.Focus on the pronunciation of the letter $d$ in $order$.Explanation:In $order$, the underlined $d$ is pronounced as the voiced sound /d/.Now examine each option for its consonant sound.In $another$, the letters $th$ make the voiced sound /ð/, not /d/.In $made$, the final $d$ is pronounced as /d/, so it matches exactly.In $wedge$, the letter group $dg$ makes the sound /dʒ/, which is different.In $flunked$, the suffix $-ed$ is pronounced as /t/ because the sound before it is voiceless.Therefore, only $made$ shares the same consonant sound /d/ as $order$.Answer:B. made
