Dropping the 'y' for an 'i' before adding 'ed', es or 'ly' - for example- cried or funnily
Different 'ai' sounds - /eigh/, /aigh/, /ay/
Words ending in -tion and -sion
Two syllable words ending in -er
Words ending in -ous
Words with 'ch' spelling making a 'ck' sound - for example - chorus
'ou' making an 'u' sound
The prefix -im
Homophones
