magic E- POWER to SINGLE VULNERABLE VOWELS when they are caught by a COOL COP: came, home, fume, lime, fine, tone, rake, lake, bike, race, rose,

engage + ment engagement, she stays because no other letter can
take over the job of keeping G soft
NEWER exception: judgment

vowel-ish sound.
10. READ 651, Dr. Schneider 10 W & Y: fraternal twins = HALF VOWELS As a twin team, they are strong. The single vowels are not vulnerable anymore and will not change their sound, even if a consonant COP comes and places itself after a vowel team. These teams always appear at the end of a word/syllable.

-ew: few, crew, knew, new -ey: key, obey,
