Question
Identify the magic ‘e’ sound word from the sentence. Look at the options and answer. Have you ate banana today?
Banana
Ate
Hint:
The magic e usually comes at the end of a meaningful word. It has no sound of its own but the other vowel in the word is pronounced as itself. For example, in the word 'hide', 'e' is silent and the 'i' is pronounced as 'i' ('aai') and not as 'ee'.
The correct answer is: Ate
Among the options given, 'banana' does not have an 'e' at the end which is why it cannot have a magic e. 'Ate' on the other hand, has an 'e' at the end which is silent, and the 'a' is pronounced as 'ae' which means it has a magic e. Therefore, the answer is ATE.
