Common mistakes of prague pronunciation
- Misplacing stress: Some learners place stress incorrectly on the second syllable, saying "prague" as /prəˈgjuː/. Tip: Remember to stress the first syllable, pronounced as /ˈprɑːɡ/ in UK and /ˈpræɡ/ in US.
- Incorrect vowel sound: A common mistake is pronouncing the "a" in "prague" as in "cat," leading to /præɡ/. Tip: Use a longer "a" sound, as in "father," for the correct pronunciation /ˈprɑːɡ/ (UK) or /ˈpræɡ/ (US).
- Adding extra sounds: Some may add an unnecessary "uh" sound, saying "pruh-gue." Tip: Focus on blending the sounds smoothly without inserting additional vowels, aiming for /ˈprɑːɡ/ or /ˈpræɡ/.
- Confusing with similar words: Learners might confuse "prague" with words like "pragmatic," leading to mispronunciation. Tip: Remember that "prague" has a distinct sound and stress pattern, pronounced as /ˈprɑːɡ/ (UK) or /ˈpræɡ/ (US).
- Mispronouncing the final consonant: Some may soften the "g," pronouncing it as "j" in "prague." Tip: Ensure the "g" is hard, as in "go," for the correct pronunciation /ˈprɑːɡ/ (UK) or /ˈpræɡ/ (US).
