Common mistakes of coyotes pronunciation
- Misplacing the stress: Some learners place the stress incorrectly on the second syllable, saying "coy-ˈo-tees". Tip: Remember to stress the first syllable: "ˈkaɪ.oʊ.tiz".
- Overpronouncing the "y": A common mistake is to overly emphasize the "y" sound, leading to "coy-ˈyo-tees". Tip: Keep the "y" sound subtle, blending it smoothly into the vowel sounds: "ˈkaɪ.oʊ.tiz".
- Ignoring the "t" sound: Some may drop the "t" sound entirely, pronouncing it as "coy-ˈo-es". Tip: Ensure you pronounce the "t" clearly, as in "ˈkaɪ.oʊ.tiz".
- Mispronouncing the vowel sounds: Learners sometimes mispronounce the "o" as "ɔ", resulting in "cɔɪ-ˈo-tees". Tip: Use the correct diphthong for the "o" sound: "ˈkaɪ.oʊ.tiz".
- Confusing with "coyote": Some may confuse "coyotes" with "coyote", pronouncing it as "kaɪˈoʊ.ti". Tip: Remember that "coyotes" has a distinct plural form, with three syllables: "ˈkaɪ.oʊ.tiz".
