Common Pronunciation Traps & Learner Mistakes
The Trap: The letter "w" before "r" in "wrack" is completely silent.

When "wrack" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "wrack is" sounds like "wrack-iz").
In natural sentences, avoid over-stressing "wrack" unless it conveys the core contrast or focal point of your message.
