Diphthongs- a sound formed by the combination of two vowels in a single syllable, in which the sound begins

as one vowel and moves toward another (as in coin, loud, and side ).. Two common diphthongs in English are
the /ow/ sound as in the word cow and the /oy/ sound as in the word boy.
The diphthong ow combines /a/ as in cat with /oo/ as in in zoo. This diphthong can be spelled with the
letters o-w or o-u.
The diphthong oy combines /aw/ as in law with /ee/ as in see.
