Syllable Architecture & Stress Distribution

Syllable 1Primary Stress

POW

Gliding diphthong with sustained vocal resonance.

As a single-syllable word, "pou" receives full primary stress when spoken in isolation, though it may take a reduced weak form in connected speech when acting as a function word.

Common Pronunciation Traps & Learner Mistakes

⚠️ Single-Syllable Vocal Energy & Vowel Articulation

The Trap: Single-syllable words like "pou" carry primary acoustic prominence in isolation, but can be swallowed in rapid connected speech.

How Native Speakers Say It: Sustain vowel clarity without rushing into the trailing consonant. Elevate pitch slightly when "pou" carries the primary contrast or new information in a sentence.

Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)

When followed by a vowel, insert a subtle glide (/w/ or /j/) to connect into the subsequent word without an abrupt glottal stop.

⏱️ Stress-Timed Rhythm

In natural sentences, avoid over-stressing "pou" unless it conveys the core contrast or focal point of your message.
