Pairs in context
Minimal pairs inside sentences
Hearing a pair in isolation is one thing — keeping the contrast in connected speech is harder.
Read these sentences aloud. Each puts a target-word next to its confusable twin. Don't drop the contrast.
- I'd like a banana and a cup of coffee, please.
- The problem is above my level of understanding.
- She was about to go to the supermarket for some apples.
