Blending is described as which process?

Explanation:
Blending is putting sounds together to hear a whole word. When you hear phonemes like /m/ /a/ /p/, you blend them to say “map.” It also covers working with syllables: you can blend an onset and a rime to form a syllable (for example /k/ plus /æt/ gives /kæt/, “cat”), and then blend multiple syllables to say a longer word. This is the opposite of separating sounds or rearranging parts, and it isn’t about writing letters.
