Common mistakes of page pronunciation
- Misplacing the vowel sound: Some learners pronounce "page" with a short "a" sound, like in "cat." The correct pronunciation is /peɪdʒ/ in both US and UK English. Tip: Focus on the long "a" sound, as in "say."
- Ignoring the final sound: A common mistake is to drop the "j" sound at the end, pronouncing it as /peɪ/. The full pronunciation is /peɪdʒ/. Tip: Practice saying "judge" to reinforce the "j" sound.
- Stressing the wrong syllable: Some may mistakenly stress the second syllable, pronouncing it as "pa-ge." The correct stress is on the single syllable "page," /peɪdʒ/. Tip: Remember that "page" is a one-syllable word.
- Confusing with similar words: Learners might confuse "page" with "pay" or "gage," leading to mispronunciation. "Page" should be pronounced /peɪdʒ/, while "pay" is /peɪ/ and "gage" is /ɡeɪdʒ/. Tip: Practice each word in isolation to distinguish them clearly.
- Overemphasizing the "p" sound: Some may pronounce "page" with an overly strong "p," making it sound harsh. The correct pronunciation is smoother, /peɪdʒ/. Tip: Relax your lips when saying "p" to achieve a softer sound.
