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

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