Is suit a long or short vowel sound?

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

Here's why:

* Short vowel sounds are typically quick and sharp.

* Long vowel sounds are typically drawn out and have a more open mouth position.

The "u" in "suit" has a short, sharp sound similar to the "u" in "cup" or "put".
