**schwa + r- Schwa is an unstressed and toneless neutral vowel
sound. Words with a schwa sound make the words hard to spell.
Sometimes sound is not a clue to which vowel is used. Words in
this schwa category all sound like they would have an “er” in the
middle of the word, but the word is actually spelled with an ‘ear’,
‘or’, ‘ur’, or ‘ir’.
