pronunciation: equipment
-
In French you pronounce the French word "équipement" /ekipman/
In English you pronounce "equipment" as /i'kwipment/
On of the difficulties of correctly pronouncing this word is the word stress: equipment, but we'll talk about that later...
The other difficulty is that in English you pronounce "qu" as /kw/, whereas in French you pronounce the same letters as /k/
Now pronounce the following words:
quantity
question
equality
equivalent
qualified
Watch out: the letter sequence "gu" is pronounced as in French:
guide, guard, guitar, guarantee
(PS: I haven't quite figured out how to write the phonetic script with my keyboard.
But I will soon! )
