Pronunciation Practice
Finding English pronunciation tricky?
Having problems with English pronunciation? Well, don't be too hard on yourself
- blame the language! Is it any surprise people have problems speaking English
clearly when we pronounce words like 'once' with a /w/, but then ignore the /w/
completely in 'answer'. Why on earth are words like 'Wednesday' pronounced as
'wensday'? And what about 'creature' with 2 syllables but 'creation' pronounced
with 3?
