The long /oo/ sound appears in a variety of spellings beyond oo, ou, ui, u-e, and ew. Words like move, shoe, and who all use different letter combinations to make the same sound. Some of these spellings are less predictable, so they are best learned through repeated practice. Paying attention to pronunciation will help make these tricky words easier to remember.
