Which word ends with the final consonant blend 'nt'?

• A. cake
• B. bird
• C. plant
• D. lake

Answer: (C)

Final consonant blends are two consonants at the end of a word that you hear in sequence. The ending "nt" gives you two sounds in a row: n, then t. The word that finishes with those two letters is the one whose last two letters are n and t, producing the /nt/ ending. The other options end with different endings: one ends with a single consonant sound after a vowel plus a silent silent-e pattern, another ends with a different two-letter ending, and the last ends with a single consonant sound. So plant is the word that ends with the final consonant blend "nt".
