Practice English Speaking&Listening with: Manny's Silent 'e' - The Prankster Cam (The Electric Company)

MANNY: I'd like to introduce you to the ninja of the

English alphabet.

Silent E.

See that glob?

Silent E sneaks up on it and pounces, bam!

Turning glob into globe.

[GIGGLES]

Silent E doesn't even make a peep.

But it changes the sound of a whole word.

Tub, you're a tube.

Kit?

[GIGGLES]

Go fly a kite!

Sham?

What a shame!

Fat.

Huh, meet your fate.

Mop, please don't mope.

Mistak.

Mistak's not a word.

Oh, sorry.

My mistake.

Hey, all you vowels, I see you.

And you can run but you can't hid, I mean hide, from the

baddest ninja in town!

Silent E.
