(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Medium of Spanish

Imagine a situation in which a Literature student, while revising a classic text, comes across the word 'exceção' and reflects on the spelling of the /z/ phoneme in this context. Considering the orthographic variation with which this phoneme can be represented in Portuguese words, write a text identifying and exemplifying the rules of use that determine whether the /z/ will be spelled with the letter 's', 'z', or 'x' in words like 'exceção', 'excesso', and 'xícara'. Evaluate, in your text, the importance of phonological knowledge in understanding and producing texts with correct spelling, and discuss how this competence contributes to the effectiveness of written communication.
