Common mistakes of ezekiel pronunciation
- Incorrect syllable stress: Many people stress the second syllable instead of the first. The correct pronunciation is /ɪˈziː.ki.əl/ in both US and UK English. Tip: Emphasize the first syllable "E" to pronounce it correctly.
- Mispronouncing the "z" sound: Some may pronounce "Ezekiel" with an "s" sound instead of a "z" sound. The correct pronunciation is /ɪˈziː.ki.əl/. Tip: Make sure to use a clear "z" as in "zebra."
- Overlooking the "k" sound: Some speakers might skip the "k" sound, leading to a softer pronunciation. The correct pronunciation includes a strong "k" sound /ɪˈziː.ki.əl/. Tip: Practice saying "ki" with a firm "k" to enhance clarity.
- Adding an extra vowel sound: Some may insert an additional vowel, leading to "Ezekiel" sounding like "Ezeekiel." The correct form is /ɪˈziː.ki.əl/. Tip: Focus on blending "zi" and "ki" smoothly without adding extra sounds.
