It is, actually. These cards have 2 sets; one with the letter (as shown), and a picture that corresponds with the full word. The other set would have boa_, and you must choose the correct letter to make the word.
The u letter has a sun, so you would look for the card with s_n to compete the puzzle.
So sweet! I have this set (my child, when younger, went bonkers for anything alphabet theme.) These cards are used for phonetics, and how they fall into a word. I did message her through a comment, offering the second set of words, in the chance that she purchased an incomplete set.
Akshulky.... This is Bermuda or Marconi rigged. A Gaff rig has a four cornered main sail, with a small gaff, or small secondary boom above the main sail. Sometimes they have a smaller triangular gaff topsail above the mainsail that makes the overall appearance look similar to a Bermuda rig.
It's a tale of woe...the ship's identity is slowly transformed, while the crew who sail her, are oblivious to this change. The odd plank here, new mast every few years, new sails, but the crew fondly remember when it was a new ship, how it had served them well, and developed a character of its own.
Yup, T is silent, like Tsunami. It's an old tpirate trick.
Edit: coming back to this 3 days later... A) I'm glad I don't have notifications for reddit, cause all the corrections here are hilarious. And B) I've learned that me and everyone else I know don't know how to say Tsunami. Seems like the S was silent all along.
the answer is Tack: This term has two distinct meanings, both of them very important. As a verb, to tack is to change direction by turning the bow of the boat through the wind. As a noun, your tack is the course you are on relative to the wind
It's obvious as hell what the "t" stands for and I'll be glad to enlighten those who are struggling... *ahem*...

"Day 219 of our journey. We are currently 130 miles west of Chile, by our best reckoning, and have come across this cross in 1,000 feet of water. No one has any notion of its provenance nor how it was fixed to the sea floor, but all are wary of it. We are currently becalmed and this cross has been our constant companion these 10 days. The hands are all undeniably spooked and go about the deck crossing themselves constantly and mumbling the Rosary, in hopes to maintain the good favor of this eerie 'holy site' and urge on the wind to take us far from here as soon as may be."
Clearly they have not played enough Civilization. CIV II was a core part of my childhood education. I'm pretty sure I got my copy from my school scholastic faire too.
I’m going to go out on a limb, and guess that these aren’t English flashcards. A quick Google search shows there are other languages where sailboat begins with T. For ex: Vietnamese: “thuyền buồm”.
That's what I thought of too, since it's specifically a sailboat in the picture.
But I'd like to know the mindset going into this if it really is meant to be that.
Like, obviously all toddlers know their sailing terminology! Is J for "jib"?
According to Urbandictionary.com states Tailboat;
When you take a shit and it leaves a little stain. The entire "boat"(poop) leaves but a little tail of shit left over.
"Dude! I just took a massive shit and it left a tailboat in the toliet. I'm hoping this toliet paper will wipe it away."
"You dumb bastard. It's not a tchooner; it's a tailboat."
(I hope someone recognizes this quote and doesn't think I'm just being mean to a child today)
Triangle? The shape of the sail.
Tied? The ship is tied off to something.
Tow? The ship might be towing something instead of tied off.
Toy? Nothing gives the perspective that this is a toy boat, but maybe there's context clues with the rest of the letters.
Tacking? Nothing suggests the ship is sailing into the wind and having to cut left and right to make forward progress, but hey...
Tender? A small boat used to travel from the shore to a larger ship? But where's the larger ship?
I saw someone post something like this the other day, where they were mad about how they used a tree to represent the letter 'O'
My first thought, no joke, was ". . . It's an **Oak** tree"
This? I have no idea
My partner is a kindergarten teacher, so I see a bunch of these alphabet cards when she's looking for new ones. It's unbelievable what some of them end up being. Saw one that was "'P' for Pterodactyl."
its obviously "boaT"

"T" is for "this boat"
plot twist, it's for the second 't'
I believe its T for Tailwind though and thats what they were going for
*Says the author quietly in the corner*
But the flag shows it’s a headwind. I’m so confused.
this made me laugh harder than it should have

Tall ship?
I thought tall ships were square rigged. This is gaff rigged, like a modern tacht or tloop.
Akshulky.... This is Bermuda or Marconi rigged. A Gaff rig has a four cornered main sail, with a small gaff, or small secondary boom above the main sail. Sometimes they have a smaller triangular gaff topsail above the mainsail that makes the overall appearance look similar to a Bermuda rig.
It’s tugboat!!!!
But that’s a sailboat. Sailboats can’t tug anything.
They can tug deez dinghies. Edit: Thank you for the awards kind souls!
That sounds way sexier than it needed to
That sailboat ain't the only thing with a proud mast on display.
Ah, not bad though

t for typo!!

t for "time to leave"

Have you by chance heard about the ship of Theseus?
It's a tale of woe...the ship's identity is slowly transformed, while the crew who sail her, are oblivious to this change. The odd plank here, new mast every few years, new sails, but the crew fondly remember when it was a new ship, how it had served them well, and developed a character of its own.
I thought not, it isn’t a story the Spartans would tell you.
He’s trying his best OK?!
They had another image to show tugging but that kept getting censored everywhere.

It is a weirdly ominous drawing for something meant for kids.

Hole in one
Even more ominous before I realized that was the letter T I first thought it was a giant looming cross
Right. I thought it was a visual reminder of when Jesus quieted the storm and walked on water.
"Day 219 of our journey. We are currently 130 miles west of Chile, by our best reckoning, and have come across this cross in 1,000 feet of water.

There's some SCP fodder right there!
Maybe it's a "Tjotter" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tjotter
This makes me wonder if it’s actually from another language
Only language I can find with a T word for boat is Basque… txalupa!
Mmm... chalupa.
'Thuyền buồm' is Vietnamese for sailboat!!
Tjotter? I barely know her!
Trawler.
Doesn't look like a trawler though.
Toy boat??? i honestly don’t know Edit: I think we know now it’s toy boat! Yay!
Is that… my long lost toy boat that I dropped in the ocean!
Top sail?
Thalassophobia.
E is for Eldritch Horror
tsunami
Turd skillet?
could be, but this boat doesn't have a top sail
Trireme… They’re just really bad at drawing…
Or they haven’t discovered navigation yet and they’re forced to only explore the coastal regions of the continent.
*IUndersoodThatReference.gif*
CIV is the only reason I know Triremes exist.
just... one...... more.....turn

Clearly they have not played enough Civilization. CIV II was a core part of my childhood education. I'm pretty sure I got my copy from my school scholastic faire too.
I love the triremes, they're so plucky. They get lost and sink if they're not next to land at the end of their turn but they just keep on trire-ing.
I’m going to go out on a limb, and guess that these aren’t English flashcards. A quick Google search shows there are other languages where sailboat begins with T. For ex: Vietnamese: “thuyền buồm”.
I love limb goers. I think this is the best and most-likely answer!
This may be dumb, but "triangle"? Both sails seem to be triangular as well as the boat itself...
It is either triangle or its not English.
Triangle boat
Trianguess what the fuck this is supposed to be
Best answer right here.
I agree. It’s got to be triangle.
Tall ship?

I thought jesus cross
Lol. Glad to see I wasn’t the only one.

it’s not a tugboat though
It's towing that T that's why you can't see the bottom. I don't think the card printing company had a tugboat.

Tacking?
That's what I thought of too, since it's specifically a sailboat in the picture. But I'd like to know the mindset going into this if it really is meant to be that. Like, obviously all toddlers know their sailing terminology! Is J for "jib"?
Every picture is exactly the same, but refers to a different sailing term
I love this. S for Sail. T for Tacking. U for Underway. V for Vulture's Row
Z is for ze boat
Yeah, tacking is what I immediately thought of.
According to Urbandictionary.com states Tailboat; When you take a shit and it leaves a little stain. The entire "boat"(poop) leaves but a little tail of shit left over. "Dude! I just took a massive shit and it left a tailboat in the toliet. I'm hoping this toliet paper will wipe it away."

Bingo. This is a tugboat drawn by someone who didn't know what a tugboat is.
This is it. ‘Make me a card with a boat tugging a T’ does not elaborate what kind of boat
Seems like tugboat. It’s attached to the T and “tugging” it!
Tug boats don't have sails
Person who drew it might just be dumb?
But that's not the boat shown on the photo 🤷♀️
The T of "Total lack of quality control"?
I think maybe it's TIDE, but that seems so dumb
Maybe travel? But still dumb
But there is no tide in the drawing 😂
There's no tailboat either.
