PRONUNCIATION

​English pronunciation is challenging because it doesn’t always follow consistent rules. Many words are not pronounced the way they are spelled, and there are numerous exceptions. English has a mix of sounds borrowed from other languages, making it tricky to master. Additionally, letters like "ough" have multiple pronunciations, and stress and intonation patterns can change a word’s meaning. These complexities require practice and careful listening to overcome

IPA CHART

The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is a tool that helps learners understand the exact pronunciation of words. It uses symbols to represent sounds, making it easier to see how a word should be pronounced regardless of its spelling. By learning IPA, students can improve their accuracy and confidence in speaking English, as it provides a clear guide to correct pronunciation.
