Common mistakes of coitus pronunciation
- Misplacing the stress: Many learners incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "coi-TUS" instead of the correct "COI-tus" (ˈkɔɪ.təs). Tip: Remember to emphasize the first syllable for accurate pronunciation.
- Overemphasizing "t": Some pronounce "coitus" with an exaggerated "t" sound, resulting in "coi-tus" (ˈkɔɪ.təs). Tip: Keep the "t" soft and quick, blending it smoothly into the second syllable.
- Incorrect vowel sounds: A common mistake is mispronouncing the first vowel, saying "coy-tus" instead of "coitus" (ˈkɔɪ.təs). Tip: Ensure the "oi" sound is pronounced like "oy" in "boy" for clarity.
- Omitting the second syllable: Some might say "coi" instead of "coitus" (ˈkɔɪ.təs), dropping the last syllable entirely. Tip: Always pronounce both syllables to convey the full meaning of the word.
- Confusing with similar words: Learners sometimes mix up "coitus" with "coy" or "quiet," leading to mispronunciation. Tip: Focus on the distinct sounds in "coitus" (ˈkɔɪ.təs) to avoid confusion with other terms.
