Long vowels are vowel sounds that say the name of the letter itself. In other words, when a vowel is pronounced the same way as its letter name, it’s called a long vowel sound.

Here are the long vowels:

  • Long A – sounds like /ā/ as in cake, plane, rain
  • Long E – sounds like /ē/ as in tree, eat, bee
  • Long I – sounds like /ī/ as in kite, pie, bike
  • Long O – sounds like /ō/ as in boat, nose, rope
  • Long U – sounds like /ū/ as in cube, flute, mule
