Common mistakes of dairy pronunciation
- Misplacing the vowel sound: Some may pronounce "dairy" as /ˈdeəri/ instead of the correct /ˈdɛəri/ in US English. Tip: Focus on the "ai" producing the /ɛə/ sound, similar to "air."
- Ignoring the "r" sound: Many speakers skip the "r" in "dairy," saying /ˈdeɪi/ instead of /ˈdɛəri/. Tip: Emphasize the "r" to ensure clarity and proper pronunciation.
- Overemphasizing the second syllable: Some pronounce "dairy" as /ˈdeɪəri/, stressing the second syllable too much. Tip: Place the primary stress on the first syllable: "DAIR-y."
- Confusing with "dare": It's common to mix up "dairy" with "dare," pronounced /dɛər/. Tip: Remember that "dairy" has an additional syllable, making it "DAIR-y."
- Mispronouncing the ending: Some may say "dairy" as /ˈdeəri/ without the correct diphthong. Tip: Ensure the ending sounds like "ee" in "see," not just a long "e."
