The Trap: Avoid pronouncing every vowel with full acoustic weight. Non-native speakers often over-enunciate unstressed vowels.

How Native Speakers Say It: Only give full vowel clarity to the primary stressed syllable. Relax all unstressed vowels into a neutral, low-energy schwa (⁄ə⁄).

With the disappearance of the feudal system, suzerainty of this kind likewise disappeared.

The rights of the suzerain State over the vassal are principally international rights, of whatever they may consist.”
