How do you pronounce pronunciation?

Pro-nun-see-a-shun.

as blunts

Like @Blackberry wrote.

You are correct in your suspicion that the word is pronounced differently in this form, at least in the US. Here is a link to the pronunciation of ‘pronunciation’ where you can also hear how it sounds.

Pro- nown- si- ay- tion.

I pronounce it as pro-nun-see-ay-shun.

The second syllable rhymes with sun, fun, and done.

Primary accent (stress) is on the next-to-last syllable, secondary accent on the second.

Already answered above, but it is one of the most amusing words that gets mispronounced – always brings a smile to my face :-)

Pro-nun-see-a-shun.

I’m in America.

That syllable is the same as in enunciation, renunciation, and annunciation.

Denounce and denunciation
Announce and annunciation
Renounce and renunciation
Enounce Enunciate and enunciation

pronounce vs. pronunciation
= noun vs. nun
Different in both cases
I didn’t realize this until I was about 30.

prəˌnʌnsiˈeɪʃən

Though I often pronounce the first schwa more like /o/, at least when I’m enunciating it.

“Pronunciation” has a different vowel sound due to trisyllabic laxing, whereby a tense vowel (such as a long vowel or diphthong, as in the “ow” sound in “pronounce”) becomes lax (meaning short, thus to the “uh” sound in “fun”) when two unstressed syllables follow it. Compare: insane vs. insanity, serene vs. serenity, etc.

@MilkyWay Exactly like that for me, too.

PRO-NONE-SEE-A-SHUN

PRO-NUN-CI-A-TION

Pro-nun-see-ay-shun.

Relevant.

Pro-nun-see-aa-shun

I guess, say pro-‘nun-see-AY-shun.
Edit: Sorry, I didn’t notice it in above posts.

Nunce, nunce, nunce.
