Does lemonade have a long vowel sound?

Let's break down the word "lemonade" to see if it has a long vowel sound:

* Lem - This part has a short "e" sound.

* on - This part has a long "o" sound.

* ade - This part has a short "a" sound.

So, while "lemonade" does have a long "o" sound in the "on" part, it also has two short vowel sounds.

Therefore, you could say that "lemonade" has both long and short vowel sounds.
