Some words in English use the letters ir or ear to spell the /er/ sound. This sound is common in longer words like affirm, confirm, and earnest. The ir and ear combinations create a similar sound to er in her.
Here are two examples:
affirm – I affirm my faith in my religion.
earnest – Their conversation sounded very earnest.
These words might feel challenging, but recognising the er pattern will make them easier to spell.
