Does grow have a long or short vowel sound?

The word "grow" has a long vowel sound.

Here's why:

* The "o" in "grow" is pronounced like the "o" in "go" or "show".

* Long vowel sounds are typically associated with a vowel sound that is similar to the letter's name.

Therefore, the "o" in "grow" has a long vowel sound.
