Is kale a long or short vowel?

The vowel sound in "kale" is a short vowel sound.

Here's why:

* Short vowel sounds are typically pronounced quickly and with a closed mouth. The "a" in "kale" is pronounced similar to the "a" in "cat" or "hat."

* Long vowel sounds are typically pronounced more slowly and with a more open mouth.
