hey everybody Jennifer from tarle speech with your pronunciation question
-
today's question is how do I pronounce anxiety security and university we're
-
going to tackle this question by looking at the suffix I T y so here's the suffix
-
ity and we are going to pronounce that suffix ADEE we're actually going to say
-
the schwa sound here and make this actually a schwa syllable when you're
-
making its own separate beat in the word UH and then we're going to add that D so to
-
make the D you're going to make sure that your voice box is on and vibrating
-
and then end with a nice long e often times I hear people say e t something
-
like that because most of my clients will say e for the letter I because
-
oftentimes that's a one-to-one translation from your language so again
-
we're going to make this an uh and then end with Adee Adee again nice and short
-
relaxed schwa sound here and then we're going to move to the D and make sure you
-
say that nice and long so we have the word
-
anxious anxiety secure security universe university another thing to
-
keep in mind is that the syllable stress is always before the uh sound so it's
-
before the I T Y angz zi Adi secure Adi universe ADEE so anxiety security
-
university so anxious anxiety secure security universe university let's give
-
those all a try again anxious secur universe anxiety security
-
university so again to summarize the stress is always going to become right
-
before that schwa sound the uh syllable and then we are going to end with D with a D
-
sound and a nice long e so super short and then long but the longest loudest
-
and highest pitch syllable will be the syllable right before the uh so one more
-
time anxious anxiety secure security universe
-
university so the anxious student had anxiety about taking the test on the
-
universe at the university because the university had implemented security
-
measures to secure the testing room give it a try
-
try I know people are going to notice the difference if you found this helpful
