In these words, the vowel at the end of a syllable is long: <em><span class=\"bold\"><span class=\"italic\">h<span class=\"underline\">e<\/span>r<span class=\"underline\">o<\/span><\/span>, <span class=\"italic\">h<span class=\"underline\">i<\/span><\/span>, <span class=\"italic\">m<span class=\"underline\">u<\/span>sic<\/span><\/span><\/em>.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<br \/>\r\n<div class=\"clearfix\">\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Long-Vowels-Bullet-2-75x75.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"left\" width=\"75\" \/><p><span class=\"bold\">Silent E can make the previous vowel long.<\/span><br \/>\r\n    \r\nIn the word <em><span class=\"italic\">cute<\/span><\/em>, as in <em><span class=\"italic\">Emus are cute<\/span><\/em>, the long U sound is formed by adding <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/silent-e\/\" title=\"undefined\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Silent E<\/a>\u00a0at the end of the word.
