Common mistakes of omnipotence pronunciation

Incorrect stress placement: Many learners place stress incorrectly on the second syllable, saying "om-NIP-otence" instead of "OM-nip-otence" (ˈɒm.nɪ.pə.təns in UK, ˈɑːm.nɪ.pə.təns in US). Tip: Focus on the first syllable for correct emphasis.
Mispronouncing the vowel sounds: Some may say "omnipotence" with a short "i" sound, like "om-nip-uh-tence". The correct pronunciation features a clearer "i" as in "bit" (ˈɒm.nɪ.pə.təns in UK, ˈɑːm.nɪ.pə.təns in US). Tip: Practice the vowel sound in isolation before using it in the word.
Adding an extra syllable: Learners sometimes add an extra syllable, pronouncing it as "om-nip-uh-tense". The correct pronunciation has four syllables, not five (ˈɒm.nɪ.pə.təns in UK, ˈɑːm.nɪ.pə.təns in US). Tip: Break the word into its syllables to avoid this mistake.
Confusing "t" and "d" sounds: Some pronounce the "t" in "omnipotence" as a "d", saying "omnipodence". The "t" should be clear and crisp (ˈɒm.nɪ.pə.təns in UK, ˈɑːm.nɪ.pə.təns in US). Tip: Emphasize the "t" sound by practicing with similar words.
Overemphasizing the final syllable: Learners may stress the last syllable too much, saying "omnipotence" like "omnipot-ENCE". The stress should remain on the first syllable (ˈɒm.nɪ.pə.təns in UK, ˈɑːm.nɪ.pə.təns in US). Tip: Rehearse saying the word slowly, focusing on the primary stress.
