Spelling Notes
Let's look at 'bring'. The 'i' in 'bring' makes a short 'i' sound. This is because it's part of a closed syllable, 'bring', which ends in consonants ('ng'). According to Rule 29, a closed syllable forces the single vowel before the consonants to produce a short sound. This pattern helps us understand why the 'i' sounds short in this word.
Breaking words down into their syllables and analyzing why a word is spelled the way it is will drive you to be a better all-around speller, not just learning this single word. This is what strong spellers do subconsciously.
