Consonant Blends

If your native language doesn’t include many consonant blends, English can be a challenge. An example is “st” as in the word “test.” These blends can appear at the beginning of a word, in the middle, or at the end. Let’s practice. 

1- The first test was the worst test; the last test was the second worst.

2- My task was to cover the disk on my desk with my mask.

3- Old Mr. Gold told me he had a cold from the mold.

4- I used my wand to send sand to the pond.

5- Do you think I should dunk the skunk in the sink or the tank?

6- I heard the sound of a hound running around and sniffing a mound.

7- As a prank, the drunk drank his drink in a trunk.

8- Would you, could you scold a child in a field?

9- Mr. Smart stood apart in the court and held a chart of his heart.

10- The bored blond was armed with a can of baked beans.
