Common mistakes of laryngeal pronunciation

Misplacing stress: Many learners incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "la-RYN-geal" (/ləˈrɪn.dʒi.əl/). Tip: Remember to stress the third syllable: "la-rin-" (/lærˈɪn.dʒi.əl/).
Dropping the "g": Some pronounce "laryngeal" as "larin-eal" (/ləˈrɪn.i.əl/), omitting the "g" sound. Tip: Ensure you pronounce the "g" clearly as in "go" to maintain the word's integrity.
Incorrect vowel sounds: Learners often mispronounce the first syllable as "lair" instead of "lar" (/lɛər/ vs. /lær/). Tip: Focus on the "a" sound, which should be pronounced like in "cat."
Overemphasizing the "e": Some may say "laryngeal" with a strong "e" sound, sounding like "larin-gee-al" (/ləˈrɪn.dʒiː.əl/). Tip: Keep the "e" subtle; it should blend smoothly into the following syllable.
Mispronouncing the final syllable: A common mistake is pronouncing "laryngeal" with an overly long final "al," as in "larin-geal" (/ləˈrɪn.dʒɪəl/). Tip: Keep the final syllable short and crisp, like "eel."
