1. The letter "T" is a consonant.

Explanation

The letter "T" is considered a consonant because it represents a speech sound that is produced by obstructing airflow in some way. In the case of the letter "T," it is produced by briefly stopping the airflow with the tongue against the roof of the mouth. Consonants are contrasted with vowels, which are produced with an open vocal tract and no obstruction of airflow. Therefore, "T" meets the criteria for being classified as a consonant.

3. The letter "B" is a consonant.

Explanation

The letter "B" is a consonant because it is a speech sound that is produced by completely or partially blocking the airflow coming from the vocal cords. In the case of the letter "B," it is produced by closing the lips and then releasing them to create a sound. Consonants are contrasted with vowels, which are produced without any obstruction of the airflow.

4. The letter "E" is a consonant.

Explanation

The letter "E" is not a consonant, it is a vowel. Consonants are speech sounds produced by obstructing or partially obstructing the airflow, while vowels are speech sounds produced without any obstruction. The letter "E" represents the vowel sound in words like "bed," "pen," and "red." Therefore, the statement that the letter "E" is a consonant is false.
