Video for this exercise.
The two steps to correcting your pronunciation are…
- notice that the word is NOT pronounced as you thought
- make the correct pronunciation automatic by saying it out loud a few times
Today’s lesson came to mind this weekend when I heard a fellow American pronounce the French word ‘dictionnaire’ with an SH sound. So, instead of pronouncing it as the French do, deek See oh naire, she said deek SHee oh naire.
