Interactive minimal pairs worksheet

In this worksheet you will find different activities to practise the minimal pairs /b/ and /v/ in English. These sounds can be difficult because they are very similar, so it is important to listen carefully and pay attention to the pronunciation.

First, you will listen and choose the correct word. Then, you will match pairs of words, sort them according to their sound, and complete some sentences.

Remember:

• /b/ is a strong sound made with the lips together (boat, berry, banana).

• /v/ is a soft sound made with the teeth and the lower lip (van, very, vase).

Listen carefully, practise the sounds, and have fun!
