Diphthong ai
Diphthongs occur when an unstressed "i", "u", or "y-ending" appears next to another vowel in the same syllable. Their vowel sounds do not change, but they blend together to form a single syllable.
one such vowel combination, "ai" (or "ay" word ending), is pronounced like the english word "eye," except that it is a somewhat shorter sound. note that when there is a written accent over the letter "i", the diphthong is "broken" and the two vowels are pronounced separately.

Ought

low fought
bought draw

caught Warm up
