Differentiating how to correctly pronounce words in English is an important part of mastering the language. Here is a guide to help you pronounce the word "differentiate" correctly.

First, break the word down into its syllables: dif-fer-en-ti-ate.

Start with the first syllable, "dif." Pronounce it like the word "diff" without the "l" at the end.

The second syllable is "fer." This is pronounced like the word "fur" without the "u."

The third syllable is "en." Say the word "en" as if it were a single syllable.

The fourth syllable is "ti." Pronounce this like the word "tea" without the "a" at the end.

The fifth and final syllable is "ate." Pronounce this like the word "eight" without the "gh" at the end.

When put together, the word "differentiate" is pronounced "dif-fer-en-ti-ate."

With practice and careful pronunciation, you can master the English language.
