From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that rhymes with the given word below.
Bitten

  1. Written ✓
  2. Rotten
  3. Writing
  4. Brighter
Explanation

“Bitten” is /ˈbɪtn/. “Written” is /ˈrɪtn/, so the vowel /ɪ/ and the ending /tn/ match.

“Rotten” looks similar but has the vowel /ɒ/, so it does not rhyme. “Writing” and “brighter” have different endings.
