A preparing way for my mistake
I commonly make a mistake when looking at some reading words:
through
though
thought
bought
brought
Reading on in order from the head of a sentence, if my old eye sees a mistake in some word, I wonder about the strange meaning of the next word, then I notice the right spelling of the word.
After knowing how it's made a mistake myself, then I consider what to do.
I looked for similar words.
The similar words are like the following:
slough
plough * British English, the word "plow" in American
enough
cough
dough
rough
tough
sough
sought
fought
nought * British English, the word "naught" in American
trough
drought
wrought * old word
ought
throughput
throughout
Wow, after looking for them, there are quite a lot.
If I understand all the words like the above list, I think I can notice it early by increasing as a possibility.
Would it be a bit wild way?
Hmm, for some reason I'm curious about the "ough" part of each.
But the phonetic signs are various.
thought /θɔːt/
though /ðəʊ/
enough /ɪˈnʌf/
cough /kɔːf/
As like this, I go into aside way…
