audio buttonSo when we are writing and trying to sound out words, how do we know when to use dge for the "jjj" sound? Usually dge follow short vowel sounds. Listen and look at the words on the screen.

bridge
badge
ledge
judge
lodge

All of those words had a short vowel sound followed by the letters dge. Since the letters dge followed a short vowel sound, those letters made the "jjj" sound.
