Take a spelling test and track your progress: ay words - set 2.
The ay spelling pattern is a key feature of many English words, particularly when it appears at the end of a word. This combination makes the long /a/ sound and appears in words like always and betray.
In this section, you’ll find a selection of longer words that utilise the ay spelling. Familiarising yourself with these examples can enhance your reading and writing skills. Be sure to use the included activities to boost your understanding of this spelling pattern!
