Common mistakes of integrity pronunciation
- Misplacing the stress: Many learners incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "in-TEG-ri-ty" instead of "in-TEG-ri-ty" (ˌɪnˈtɛɡrɪti). Tip: Remember that the primary stress is on the third syllable.
- Overemphasizing the "g": Some pronounce "integrity" with a hard "g" sound, saying "in-teg-GRI-ty." This is incorrect. Tip: The "g" should be soft, as in "integrity" (ˌɪnˈtɛɡrɪti).
- Dropping the vowel sound: Learners may say "intgrity," omitting the vowel in the second syllable. This leads to a loss of clarity. Tip: Ensure you pronounce all syllables clearly: "in-teg-ri-ty" (ˌɪnˈtɛɡrɪti).
- Confusing "integrity" with similar words: Some mix up "integrity" with "integrate" or "integral," leading to mispronunciation. Tip: Focus on the distinct sounds and syllable structure of "integrity" (ˌɪnˈtɛɡrɪti).
- Incorrect vowel sounds: A common mistake is pronouncing the first vowel as in "in" instead of the correct "in" sound. This can lead to confusion. Tip: Listen to native speakers and practice the initial sound: "in" (ˌɪnˈtɛɡrɪti).
