Answer:
The word "diphthong" comes from the Greek and means "two voices" or "two sounds." In phonetics, a diphthong is a vowel in which there is a noticeable sound change within the same syllable. (A single or simple vowel is known as a monophthong.)

Answer:
a sound formed by the combination of two vowels in a single syllable, in which the sound begins as one vowel and moves towards another (as in coin, loud, and side ).
a digraph representing the sound of a diphthong or single vowel (as in feat ).
a compound vowel character; a ligature (such as æ ).
literally means “having two sounds.” More specifically, diphthongs deal with vowels. ... One of the best diphthong examples is the word “oil.” Here, we have two vowels working side by side and, together, they create a sound different than anything “O” or “I” alone can produce.
