Hi there and welcome to 28 (I left that long ago).
as far as pronunciation is concerned, the first and third are the same. Beach and Feast are pronounced with a long “e” as in “he” or “she.” The “i” is short as in the word “is” or “in”.
The “hu” in “Hungry” is pronounced like the beginning of the word “honey” whereas the “an” in “Angry” is pronounced like the beginning of the word “angle” or “Anglo.”
Please don’t ask why as I have no clue. I graduated from college a year late because of the language requirement.
Cheers -
