Common Pronunciation Traps & Learner Mistakes

⚠️ Unstressed Syllable Vowel Reduction (Schwa ⁄ə⁄)

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⁄).

Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)

When "telic" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "telic is" sounds like "telic-iz").

⏱️ Stress-Timed Rhythm

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

📐 Morphological Stress Rule (-ic)

Shifts primary stress to the syllable directly before "-ic".
