Common mistakes of brunette pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Some learners place stress on the second syllable, saying "bru-ˈnet" instead of the correct "ˈbruˌnɛt". Tip: Remember that the primary stress is on the first syllable in "brunette".
- Incorrect vowel sound: Many pronounce "brunette" with a long "u" sound, like "broo-net". The correct pronunciation is with a short "u" sound, as in "brʊ". Tip: Focus on the "u" sounding like "oo" in "foot".
- Omitting the final "t": Some speakers drop the final "t", saying "brunet". The correct pronunciation includes the "t", pronounced as "t" in "top". Tip: Always articulate the "t" clearly at the end of "brunette".
- Confusing with "brunet": Learners sometimes mix "brunette" with "brunet", which refers to a male. "Brunette" is feminine, pronounced "ˈbruˌnɛt". Tip: Remember that "brunette" has a distinct feminine connotation.
- Mispronouncing the "n" sound: A common mistake is pronouncing "brunette" as "bru-net" with a clear separation between syllables. The correct pronunciation blends them smoothly. Tip: Practice saying "brunette" as one fluid word.
