Common mistakes of lithuania pronunciation

Stress placement: Many learners incorrectly place stress on the second syllable, saying "lith-u-'ania". The correct stress is on the third syllable: /ˌlɪθ.juˈeɪ.ni.ə/ (US) and /ˌlɪθ.juˈeɪ.nɪ.ə/ (UK). Tip: Focus on emphasizing the "e" sound in the third syllable.
Mispronouncing "th": Some people pronounce "th" as "t" or "d", saying "lit-u-'ania" or "lid-u-'ania". The correct pronunciation has a soft "th" sound /θ/. Tip: Place your tongue between your teeth to produce the correct "th" sound.
Vowel confusion: Learners often mispronounce the "u" in the second syllable, saying "lit-hu-'ania". The correct pronunciation uses a "ju" sound /juː/. Tip: Practice saying "you" to get comfortable with the "ju" sound.
Ending sound: Some people drop the final "a" in "lithuania", saying "lithuani". The correct pronunciation includes the "a" sound /ə/. Tip: Remember to articulate the final syllable clearly to avoid omitting it.
Syllable separation: A common mistake is treating "lithuania" as three separate syllables, such as "lith-u-ani-a". The correct pronunciation has four syllables: /ˌlɪθ.juˈeɪ.ni.ə/. Tip: Break the word into four parts to help with clarity and flow.
