Try pronouncing these SUPER-LONG words!
26/04/2023 Duração: 06minAre you ready to try pronouncing some SUPER-LONG English words? Today we're going to practice pronouncing words with 6 and 7 syllables! Before we begin, two important tips for pronouncing long words: First, you need to know which syllable is the strong one, so that you stress the right part of the word. I'll show you which syllable to emphasize (you can also check a dictionary). The other tip is to try it slowly first, then gradually increase your speed until you can say it at a normal speed. In today's lesson, I'll say the words once slowly and once normally, so you can repeat both times. Those were pretty challenging, weren't they? It's hard at first, but it just takes practice... and I know you can do it! To continue improving your pronunciation with me, come join my American English Pronunciation Course, so we can get your pronunciation nice and clear.
