  • Downloadable from the app store as an app,
  • List of commonly mispronounced words or spellings that don't fit rules or relate to use such as weather and whether.
  • summary of terminology such as : suffix,

Personal research questions:

ONE: Question 'have' has a short "a" sound, thus the magic 'e' relates to the (No 'vv) rule!. However, when adding a vowel suffix we still drop the magic 'e'.

Having, this make me think about rule weighting dependent on usage and importance. Sometimes confusion can be found where there is ambiguity between overlaps of spelling rules. However, I think in this case 2 rules can apply to one spelling. The main area that is important to me from this is simply to make sure that the rules are very neatly organised so that these overlaps can spotted more easily by the learner.
