Phoneme Splitter
Split words into their individual sounds. Remember — sounds and letters aren't always the same thing!
✂️
Split sounds apart
Click between letters to add a phoneme boundary — just like the syllable game.
✨
Keep sounds together
Letters that make one sound (sh, igh) stay in one box — don't split between them. For magic-e words like cake, tap ✨ magic-e on the silent e.
