Common mistakes of juice pronunciation

  1. Misplacing the vowel sound: Some learners pronounce "juice" as /dʒuːs/ instead of /dʒuːs/ in both US and UK English. Tip: Focus on the long "u" sound, ensuring it sounds like "oo" in "food."
  2. Ignoring the initial consonant: A common mistake is to drop the "j" sound, leading to "juice" sounding like /uːs/. Tip: Practice saying "j" as in "jump" to ensure clarity at the beginning of the word.
  3. Overemphasizing the "i": Some speakers mistakenly pronounce "juice" with a strong "i" sound, making it sound like /dʒaɪs/. Tip: Remember that the "i" in "juice" is subtle; focus on the "u" sound instead.
  4. Incorrect stress placement: Learners may incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "ju-ICE" instead of the correct "JU-ice." Tip: Emphasize the first syllable "JU" when pronouncing "juice" to maintain proper stress.
  5. Mispronouncing the ending: Some may pronounce "juice" with a hard "s" sound, making it sound like /dʒuːs/. Tip: Ensure the ending is soft; practice the "ce" sounding like "s" in "see" for accuracy.
