The Short E Sound

The short E sounds like "eh" as in the word let. I let the boys go to the soccer game. Other words that use the short E sound are:

• met - I met her in Spain.
• Mexico - Mexico is a beautiful country.
• red - I like the red jacket.
• fed - I fed the children macaroni and cheese.
• bed - My bed is very comfortable.
• Texas - Texas was once part of Mexico.
