Common mistakes of fraudulent pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Many learners place stress incorrectly on the second syllable, saying "fraud-ju-lent" instead of the correct "fraud-ju-lent". Tip: Remember that the primary stress is on the first syllable: ˈfrɔː.dʒə.lənt (UK) / ˈfrɔː.dʒə.lənt (US).
- Incorrect vowel sound: Some may pronounce the "a" in "fraudulent" as a short vowel sound, like in "cat". This is incorrect. Tip: The "au" in "fraud" should sound like /ɔː/ (as in "law"), not /æ/.
- Skipping syllables: It's common to hear learners drop the second syllable, saying "fraudlent". This is a mistake. Tip: Ensure you pronounce all three syllables clearly: ˈfrɔː.dʒə.lənt (UK) / ˈfrɔː.dʒə.lənt (US).
- Mispronouncing "ju": Some might pronounce "ju" as "ju" in "juice", leading to "fraud-juice-lent". Tip: The "ju" in "fraudulent" is pronounced like /dʒə/, not /juː/.
- Adding extra sounds: Occasionally, learners add an extra "t" at the end, saying "fraudulentt". This is incorrect. Tip: Make sure to end with a clear "l" sound, not a "t": ˈfrɔː.dʒə.lənt (UK) / ˈfrɔː.dʒə.lənt (US).
