wreath

/ɹiːθ/

nounwreath

Remember: the W is silent—"wreath" sounds like "REETH," like a *wreath* you *wreathe* around a door.

Yes, it's wreath. The tricky part is the silent W and the ending: it’s **-eath** (w-r-e-a-t-h), not **-eeth** or **-eathh**.

Definition

Examples

  • “We hung a green wreath on the front door for the holidays.”
