Teacher Re: Diphthong sounds Thanks. It all looks very pretty, but it needs to be handled with care. http://www.superteacherworksheets.co...-sentences.pdf, for example, deals with digraphs (which it calls 'diphthongs'): 'AU is the diphthong in "haul"'??? So what's the diphthong in 'howl? Originally Posted by mara_ce
