How do you say 'A-E-I-O-U' ?!

English learners know that there are many vowel sounds in English, but how do these five letters, A-E-I-O-U sound in the alphabet? In other words, if you need to spell something, how do you say A-E-I-O-U?

The 'A' sound rhymes with 'PAY'
The 'E' sound rhymes with 'BEE'
The 'I' sound rhymes with 'LIE'
The 'O' sound rhymes with 'GO'
The 'U' sound rhymes with 'YOU'

Do you still think you won't remember? Well, after watching this great clip from The Three Stooges, I guarantee you will never forget!



Helpful Hints:
  • "To spell" means, "to write or name the letters that form a word"
  • "To rhyme" means, "to have the same sound as another"
  • A "clip" is a part of a longer movie, TV show, etc
  • Did Moe say, "Pound those horse teeth"?! He just means, "Play the piano".
