Kambal-katinig at Diptonggo Worksheets

This post is dedicated to Helen who requested for worksheets on kambal-katinig (consonant cluster) and diptonggo (diphthong).

The seven pdf worksheets below are about Filipino words with a consonant clusters (mga kambal-katinig) and Filipino words with diphthongs (mga diptonggo).

You may print and photocopy these worksheets for your children or students. Please do not copy and/or distribute them for profit.

The worksheets are for different grade levels. As teachers and parents, please select those worksheets appropriate for your students or children.

The consonant clusters in these worksheets include bl, br, kl, kr, dr, dy, dr, pl, pr, tr, and ts. Please note that the consonant cluster must be found in one syllable. Otherwise, it is not considered a consonant cluster or kambal-katinig. For example, the br in the word alambre is a kambal-katinig because the word is syllabicated as a-lam-bre, with br in one syllable.

On the other hand, the br in the word Abril is not a kambal-katinig because the word is syllabicated as Ab-ril.

Important note: Last year I posted a list of words with kambal-katinig and diptonggo in this post. I now realized that some of the words there were syllabicated incorrectly, such as the word Abra. (I consulted a Filipino dictionary with a copyright year of 2006. The rules in the syllabication of words have apparently been changed since then.) I will make the necessary corrections soon. Please refer to a Filipino dictionary for the correct syllabication of words.

The diphthongs included in these worksheets are /aw/, /ay/, /ey/, /iw/, /iy/, /oy/,  and /uy/.
