Common mistakes of lattice pronunciation
- Misplacing the stress: Many learners incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "lat-ˈtice" instead of the correct "ˈlat-ɪs". Tip: Remember that the primary stress is on the first syllable.
- Incorrect vowel sound: Some pronounce "lattice" with an "a" sound as in "cat", sounding like "ˈlæt-ɪs". The correct pronunciation uses a short "a" as in "father". Tip: Focus on the "a" sound to match the IPA "ˈlæt-ɪs".
- Overemphasizing the "t": A common mistake is to pronounce the "t" too strongly, leading to "lat-ˈtice" with a heavy emphasis on the "t". Tip: Keep the "t" light and quick, as in "ˈlat-ɪs".
- Skipping the "i" sound: Some may say "lat-ts" or "lat-ss", omitting the "i" sound altogether. The correct pronunciation is "ˈlat-ɪs". Tip: Ensure you pronounce the "i" clearly to maintain the word's integrity.
- Confusing with similar words: Learners sometimes mix "lattice" with "lattes", pronouncing it as "ˈlæt-eɪs". Remember, "lattice" has a distinct sound. Tip: Focus on the ending "-is" to differentiate it from "lattes".
