Common mistakes of module pronunciation

  1. Stress placement error: Many learners incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "mo-DULE" instead of the correct "MOD-ule" (ˈmɒd.juːl in UK, ˈmɑːdʒ.uːl in US). Tip: Remember to emphasize the first syllable.
  2. Vowel sound confusion: Some pronounce "module" with a short "o" sound, like "mod-jəl," instead of the correct "mod-yool" or "mod-jewel." Tip: Focus on the "o" as in "hot" for clarity.
  3. Incorrect vowel length: A common mistake is to shorten the "u" sound, saying "mod-uhl" instead of the correct "mod-yool." Tip: Practice elongating the "u" for proper pronunciation.
  4. Syllable omission: Some speakers drop the second syllable, pronouncing it as "modl." This overlooks the correct two-syllable structure. Tip: Break it down into "MOD-ule" to reinforce both syllables.
  5. Mispronouncing the "j" sound: Learners sometimes pronounce "module" with a hard "g," saying "mod-gul." The correct pronunciation uses a soft "j" sound. Tip: Listen for the "j" as in "juice" to guide your pronunciation.
