Common mistakes of fruition pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Some learners place stress on the second syllable, pronouncing it as /fruˈɪʃən/. The correct stress is on the third syllable: /fruˈɪʃən/. Tip: Focus on emphasizing the "t" in the last syllable.
- Pronouncing the "t" sound: A common mistake is dropping the "t" sound, leading to /fruˈɪʃən/ instead of /fruˈɪʃən/. This can make the word unclear. Tip: Practice articulating the "t" by saying it clearly and sharply.
- Vowel confusion: Some might confuse the vowel sound in the first syllable, pronouncing it as /fruː/ instead of /fru/. This alters the word's meaning. Tip: Listen to native speakers to hear the subtle differences in vowel sounds.
- Overemphasizing the "i": Learners may overemphasize the "i" in "fruition," pronouncing it as /fruˈɪʃən/ rather than the correct /fruˈɪʃən/. This can sound unnatural. Tip: Keep the "i" short and light to maintain the flow of the word.
- Incorrect syllable division: Some speakers mistakenly divide the word as "fru-it-ion," leading to confusion. The correct syllable division is "fru-it-ion" /fruˈɪʃən/. Tip: Practice saying the word slowly, focusing on combining the syllables smoothly.
