Common mistakes of unforgettable pronunciation

Stress placement: Many learners incorrectly stress the second syllable, saying "un-for-ˈget-able". The correct stress is on the third syllable: "un-for-ˈget-able" (US) / "ʌn-fə-ˈɡɛt.ə.bəl" (UK). Tip: Focus on the "get" syllable for proper emphasis.
Vowel confusion: Some pronounce the "u" in "unforgettable" as "ʌ" instead of "ʌn". This can lead to mispronunciation. The correct pronunciation is "ʌn-fə-ˈɡɛt.ə.bəl". Tip: Practice the initial "un" sound to avoid confusion.
Missing syllables: A common mistake is omitting the middle syllable, saying "un-fɪˈget-able". The word has four syllables: "un-for-ˈget-able". Tip: Break the word into syllables when practicing to ensure all parts are pronounced.
Incorrect vowel sounds: Some learners mispronounce the "e" in "get" as "i", leading to "un-for-ˈgit-able". The correct pronunciation uses an "ɛ" sound: "ʌn-fə-ˈɡɛt.ə.bəl". Tip: Listen to native speakers to catch the correct vowel sounds.
Overemphasizing consonants: Some tend to overemphasize the "t" sound in "unforgettable", pronouncing it as "un-for-ˈget-ə-bəl". The correct articulation is softer: "ʌn-fə-ˈɡɛt.ə.bəl". Tip: Pay attention to the flow of the word to maintain a natural sound.
