    Which letter makes the P sound? - ProProfs

    Which letter makes the P sound?

    • A

    • B

    • C

    • D

    Correct Answer
    A. B
    Explanation
    The letter "B" makes the P sound. In English, the letter "B" represents the voiced bilabial plosive sound, which is similar to the unvoiced bilabial plosive sound represented by the letter "P". The only difference is that the voiced sound is produced with the vocal cords vibrating, while the unvoiced sound is produced without vocal cord vibration. Therefore, "B" is the correct answer because it represents the letter that makes the P sound.

In Hebrew, the Shoresh is the core or root form of a word from which different variations and conjugations are derived. It represents the basic meaning of the word and serves as the foundation for its different forms. Therefore, both "Shoresh" and "Root" accurately describe the underlined portion of the word.
