In general, I found the mini-lesson to be well written. There are a couple of
things I'd take issue with, but these are minor points:
(1) For the same reason you went to short-e as an example of the "e" sound,
you need to change the example for "o." English speakers seeing that example
will make it "ou," which you don't want.
(2) Perhaps it's there and I missed it, but I'm still not quite sure of the
definition of a sumti. Is it the _slot_, or the word/expression that fills
the slot?
