Common mistakes of lange pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Many learners stress the second syllable, saying "lan-GE" /lænˈdʒeɪ/ instead of the correct first-syllable stress "Lange" /læŋ/. Tip: Remember to emphasize the first syllable to pronounce it correctly.
- Incorrect vowel sound: Some pronounce "Lange" with a long "a" sound, saying "Lange" /leɪndʒ/ instead of using the short "a" as in "cat." Tip: Focus on the short "a" sound /æ/ to avoid this mistake.
- Overemphasizing the "g": Learners may pronounce "Lange" with a hard "g," saying "Lange" /læŋg/ instead of the softer "j" sound. Tip: Practice the "ng" /ŋ/ followed by the "j" /dʒ/ sound for accuracy.
- Adding an extra vowel sound: Some speakers insert an extra vowel, pronouncing it as "Lange" /læŋə/ instead of just "Lange." Tip: Keep the pronunciation smooth and avoid adding unnecessary vowel sounds.
- Confusing with similar words: "Lange" can be confused with "long" /lɔŋ/ or "lunge" /lʌndʒ/. Tip: Pay attention to the distinct vowel and consonant combinations to differentiate "Lange" from these words.
