What are the first and second vowel sounds in word judgment if judge is short silent?

Here's how to break down the vowel sounds in "judgment" when "judge" is considered a silent unit:

* First vowel sound: The "u" in "judgment" has the same sound as the "u" in "up" or "cup". This is the short "u" sound.

* Second vowel sound: The "e" in "judgment" has the same sound as the "e" in "met" or "bed". This is the short "e" sound.

Therefore, the first and second vowel sounds in "judgment" are the short "u" and the short "e" sounds.
