Minimal Pairs/Final Consonants

This Chrome extension is developed by an ASHA-certified speech-language pathologist to address final consonant perception and production. It uses 80 minimal word pairs whose members are differentiated by the presence or absence of a final consonant. Through flashcards and game play, learners discover how final consonants can change meaning (e.g., tire vs tired, bee vs bean, ray vs rain), supporting accurate word understanding and production.

Pairs can be selected by phonological group or customized by choosing individual items for targeted practice. Phonological groups included are: Final t and d, final k and g, final p and b, final f and v, final s and z, final th, final ch and j, final m, final n, and final l and r.
