Question
High vowels are also described as what kind of vowels?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Vowels are classified by the height of the tongue in the mouth. High vowels, like /i/ and /u/, are produced with the tongue positioned close to the roof of the mouth, and are therefore also called close vowels.
Hint
The tongue is 'close' to the palate when making these sounds.
