Is whose a long vowel?

"Whose" is not a long vowel word. It has a short "o" sound, like the "o" in "hot" or "stop."

Here's why:

* Short Vowels: Short vowel sounds are typically found in words where the vowel is followed by one consonant.

* Long Vowels: Long vowel sounds are often found in words where the vowel is followed by a consonant and a silent "e" at the end, or in words where the vowel is followed by two consonants.
