Common mistakes of associated pronunciation
- Incorrect vowel sound: Many learners pronounce "associated" with the wrong vowel sound in the second syllable, saying /əˈsoʊ.si.eɪ.tɪd/ instead of the correct /əˈsoʊ.ʃi.eɪ.tɪd/. Tip: Focus on the "sh" sound in the second syllable.
- Stress misplacement: Some people place stress incorrectly, saying /ˌæs.oʊˈsi.eɪ.tɪd/ instead of /əˈsoʊ.ʃi.eɪ.tɪd/. Tip: Remember that the primary stress is on the third syllable, "ci".
- Overly pronounced "t": A common mistake is over-articulating the "t" sound, making it sound like /t/ instead of the softer /d/ at the end. Tip: Practice the word slowly to ensure the final sound is a quick "d".
- Missing syllable: Some learners drop the syllable "ci", pronouncing it as /əˈsoʊ.eɪ.tɪd/. Tip: Ensure to pronounce all four syllables clearly: "as-so-ci-a-ted".
- Confusing "associated" with "association": People often blend these words, mispronouncing "associated" as /əˈsoʊ.si.eɪʃən/. Tip: Remember that "associated" has an extra syllable and ends with "ted".
