Common mistakes of rejuvenate pronunciation

  1. Incorrect vowel sound: Some may pronounce "rejuvenate" with a short "e" sound as in "met." This is incorrect; it should be pronounced with a long "u" sound /rɪˈdʒuː.və.neɪt/ in US and UK. Tip: Focus on elongating the "u" sound.
  2. Misplaced stress: A common mistake is placing the stress on the second syllable, saying "rejuvenate" as /rɪˈdʒuː.və.neɪt/. The primary stress should be on the third syllable instead. Tip: Practice emphasizing "ve" more than the other syllables.
  3. Omitting syllables: Some might say "rejuvate" by dropping the last syllable. This leads to an incomplete pronunciation. The full form is /rɪˈdʒuː.və.neɪt/. Tip: Always articulate all syllables clearly, especially the ending.
  4. Incorrect vowel in the last syllable: People often pronounce the last syllable as "nat" instead of "neɪt." The correct pronunciation is /neɪt/. Tip: Make sure to pronounce the "ate" as a long "a" sound.
  5. Confusing with similar words: Some might confuse "rejuvenate" with "rejuvenescence," leading to mispronunciation. "Rejuvenate" is /rɪˈdʒuː.və.neɪt/, while "rejuvenescence" has a different sound. Tip: Familiarize yourself with both words to avoid confusion.
