Common mistakes of integration pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Many people incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "in-te-ˈgra-tion" instead of the correct "ˈin-te-gra-tion". Tip: Remember to emphasize the first syllable for proper pronunciation.
- Omitting the "g": Some tend to drop the "g" sound, pronouncing it as "in-te-ˈra-tion". This leads to confusion with other similar words. Tip: Ensure you pronounce the "g" clearly, as in "ˈin-te-gra-tion".
- Incorrect vowel sounds: The first vowel may be pronounced as "i" in "bit" instead of the correct "i" in "sit" /ɪ/. Tip: Focus on the short "i" sound to maintain accuracy in "integration".
- Lengthening the final "tion": People sometimes pronounce it as "in-te-gra-ˈshun" instead of "in-te-ˈgra-tion". This changes the word's rhythm. Tip: Keep the "tion" sound short and crisp, as in "ˈgra-tion".
- Confusing with similar words: Some may confuse "integration" with "integrity", mispronouncing it as "in-ˈte-gri-ty". Tip: Be mindful of the distinct endings and syllable structures to avoid mix-ups.
