ARE YOU SURE YOUR PRONUNCIATION IS CORRECT ?

Mind Our Pronunciation
===================
It's been a while I don't share anything about English language. Spending more time on teaching and preparing lessons for class and also for BEZZ English Zonia.
In mind, there are lots to be shared but time and determination are always the major hindrance.
How I wish I could be a persistent and consistent writer like some others who never fail sharing fruitable and thought provoking ideas and postings . Special kudos to these amazing people ♡♡
Ok then, let's focus on Pronunciation. I guess there are words that we think are easy and do not realise that we are actually pronounce them incorrectly.
There are many but here I just want to highlight on these 4 words.
1. COMFORTABLE
2. VEGETABLE
3. WEDNESDAY
4. CHOCOLATE
Check your own pronunciation for these words.
How many syllables do you think in the word Comfortable.
I believe that many of us pronounce this word with 4 syllables. Am I right ?
/Kam fer te bel/ (Not the correct phonetic symbols )
But the right way to pronounce this word is only with 3 syllables /Kamf te bel/
(Please refer to the attached phonetic symbol)
Same goes to Vegetable. Not 4 syllables
/Ve gi te bel/ but only 3 /Veg te bel/
Exciting right ?
Kindly refer to the attachments for Wednesday & Chocolate :) :)
Remember don't say /Cho ko let/ or /Cho ke let/ BUT it's /Chok let/ Or Worst of all Kelantanese would say /Cha ke la'/ :) :) :)
