Common mistakes of plagiarism pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Some learners place stress incorrectly on the second syllable, saying "pla-ˈgi-rism" instead of the correct "ˈplædʒ-ə-ˌrɪ-zəm". Tip: Remember that the primary stress is on the first syllable "plag".
- Incorrect vowel sounds: Pronouncing the first syllable as "pla" instead of "plædʒ" can lead to confusion. The correct pronunciation is "ˈplædʒ". Tip: Practice saying "plagiarism" slowly and focus on the "ædʒ" sound.
- Overemphasizing the last syllable: Some may say "plagiar-ˈiz-əm", stressing the last part too much. The correct stress is on the first syllable. Tip: Keep the last part lighter, saying "ˈplædʒ-ə-ˌrɪ-zəm".
- Skipping the middle syllable: Omitting the "ə" sound in the second syllable can make "plagiarism" sound incomplete. The middle syllable is essential for clarity. Tip: Make sure to pronounce all syllables clearly: "plag-ə-rism".
- Mispronouncing "g": Some may pronounce the "g" as a hard "g" like in "go", instead of the soft "j" sound as in "just". The correct pronunciation is "ˈplædʒ". Tip: Focus on the "j" sound, as in "judge", to get it right.
