Trivia
Trivia
B, F, H, J, O, Q, U, V, X, and Z are absent in this episode.
This episode is the start of a pentalogy.
There are also other long "a" sound sounds, such as tetragraph EIGH, digraph AE (as in Sundae) and digraph EI, but each Long Vowel Song can only have a maximum of 3 long vowel sounds.
10 consonants only say their sound, but 2 of them don't talk.
C and K do not talk solo because CAKE and SNAKE are not sounded out.
In the final verse, A refers another TV show, The A Team.
This is the last main series episode where A speaks properly.
A sounded like she had amnesia, referring to the Numberblocks episodes One and On Your Head.
This episode marks the return of Magic E, as he had not been seen since Magic.
This is Y's sixth time as a vowel, after Why, Key, Fox, Surprise, and Jaybird.
Also the third time he's a vowel in a digraph (AY), after Key (EY) and Jaybird (AY, OY in the game).
Also, after Jaybird, the second time he's in digraph AY.
