Question
________ is the high, back tense vowel.
Correct Answer
Option D is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
In English phonetics, /u:/ (as in 'goose') is produced with the tongue positioned high and far back in the mouth, and because it is a long vowel, it is 'tense'.
Hint
Say the vowel sound in 'food' or 'boot'. Where is your tongue?
