In Portuguese, the phoneme /z/ can be represented by the letters S, Z, or X. Let's analyze three words and the spelling rules for each letter: 1. Phoneme /z/ represented by the letter S: - Words: casa, asa, liso. - Rule: The /z/ is represented by S between vowels and at the end of words ending in -oso, -osa, -ense, -ês, -esa. 2. Phoneme /z/ represented by the letter Z: - Words: zebra, fazer, coraçãozinho. - Rule: The /z/ is represented by Z at the beginning of words, at the end of words derived from verbs ending in -zer, and in derived words with the suffix -zinho. 3. Phoneme /z/ represented by the letter X: - Words: exame, exemplo, próximo. - Rule: The /z/ is represented by X after the letter E at the beginning of words and between a vowel and the letter I or U.
