Diphthong Posters with Mouth Articulation Images

Diphthongs are a crucial component of phonetics and play a significant role in pronunciation and language comprehension. Unlike pure vowels, diphthongs combine two vowel sounds within the same syllable. By mastering diphthongs, students enhance their ability to pronounce words accurately. 

A teacher has created this set of diphthong classroom posters to make a visual representation of the most common diphthongs, including word examples, matching pictures, and mouth articulation images.
