Which sequence is CVVC?

Which sequence is CVVC?

• A. CVCe
• B. CVVC
• C. Consonant Digraph
• D. Consonant Trigraph

Answer: (B)

Recognizing a four-letter word pattern where the types of letters follow a consonant–vowel–vowel–consonant sequence. CVVC means the first letter is a consonant, the next two are vowels in a row, and the last letter is a consonant. Words like boat or seed fit this pattern, since they start with a consonant, have two vowels in a row, and end with a consonant. The option that matches this description is the one you’d describe as a consonant–vowel–vowel–consonant pattern. The other terms describe different ideas: a pattern with a silent e at the end (CVCe) changes the sequence, and consonant digraph or trigraph refer to two or three consonants together making one sound, not a simple C–V–V–C sequence.
