Identify the pair of words that rhyme perfectly but have completely different ending spelling patterns.
Options
Option A is correct
Blue and Blew
Option B
Play and Clay
Option C
Night and Light
Option D
Bold and Cold
Explanation
'Blue' (ending in '-ue') and 'Blew' (ending in '-ew') are homophones; they are pronounced exactly the same (/bluː/) and rhyme perfectly despite having entirely different spelling patterns. All other pairs share the exact same ending letters ('-ay', '-ight', and '-old').
