Pronouncing the word "interesting" correctly is important for non-native English speakers to master. As a speech coach, I'm here to help you learn to say it correctly.
The "in" sound in "interesting" is made with a short, sharp "ih" sound. The "t" is pronounced like a short, unvoiced "t" sound, and the "er" is pronounced like a long, drawn-out "er" sound. The final "ing" is pronounced like a soft "ing" sound.
Let's break it down:
• "In" - Say "ih" • "T" - Say "t" • "Er" - Say "er" • "Ing" - Say "ing"
Now, put it all together. To correctly pronounce "interesting," say "ih-t-er-ing."
Remember, practice makes perfect! With a little bit of practice, you'll be able to pronounce "interesting" correctly in no time. Good luck!
