Choose the option that has the same consonant sound as the one represented by the letter(s) underlined stand

  1. wednesday
  2. sandwich
  3. intend ✓
  4. handkerchief
Explanation

The letters “nd” in stand make the sounds /nd/.

intend ends in the same /nd/ sound.

In Wednesday the “d” is silent, and handkerchief has an /ŋk/ sound. So they do not match.
