Question

Which of the following spelling errors show phonological, rather than orthographic, errors? Select all that apply.

a. Cat
b. Dogg
c. Laugh
d. Phone

Answer 1

b. dogg

Step-by-step explanation:

Phonological errors involve mistakes in the sounds of words, while orthographic errors involve mistakes in the written or spelled form of words. In the given options:

a. Cat - Orthographic error

b. Dogg - Phonological error (doubling of the 'g' does not change the pronunciation)

c. Laugh - Orthographic error

d. Phone - Orthographic error

Therefore, the spelling error that shows a phonological error is option b (Dogg).

Answer 2

Spelling errors that show phonological errors are 'Dogg' and 'Laugh'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Spelling errors that show phonological, rather than orthographic, errors are ones where the incorrect spelling reflects the way the word is pronounced.

In the given options, 'b. Dogg' and 'c. Laugh' show phonological errors. The word 'dog' is pronounced with a single 'g' sound, so spelling it with two 'g's is a phonological error.

Similarly, the word 'laugh' is pronounced with an 'f' sound, not a 'gh' sound, so spelling it with 'gh' is also a phonological error.
