Common mistakes of cloisonne pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Some may incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "cloi-'sonne". The correct pronunciation is "ˌklwazəˈneɪ" in US and "ˌklwɔɪzəˈneɪ" in UK. Tip: Focus on the first syllable for proper emphasis.
- Ignoring the nasal sound: The "oi" in "cloisonne" is often mispronounced as a simple "o" sound. It's pronounced as "wa" in "ˌklwazəˈneɪ". Tip: Practice saying "wa" to get comfortable with the nasal quality.
- Overemphasizing vowels: Some speakers may overly stress the vowel sounds, making it sound drawn out. The correct pronunciation is crisp and clear, "ˌklwazəˈneɪ". Tip: Keep your vowel sounds short and distinct.
- Missing the final "ne": Often, the final "ne" is pronounced too softly or omitted entirely. The full pronunciation is "ˌklwazəˈneɪ". Tip: Make sure to articulate the ending clearly to avoid confusion.
- Confusing with similar words: "Cloisonne" may be confused with "cloison" or "cloisonné". Ensure you say "ˌklwazəˈneɪ" distinctly. Tip: Familiarize yourself with the differences to avoid mix-ups.
