    How are consonant blends formed?

    • When two vowels are put together

    Correct Answer
    A. When two or more consonants are blended together
    Explanation
    Consonant blends are formed when two or more consonants are blended together. This means that two or more consonant sounds are combined to create a new sound. For example, in the word "blend," the "bl" is a consonant blend. The "b" and "l" sounds are blended together to create a single sound. Consonant blends are commonly found at the beginning or end of words and help to create different sounds and words in the English language.
