How to Pronounce Giraffe

To pronounce the word “giraffe” correctly, follow these steps:

  1. Start with the hard “g” sound, similar to the “g” in “go” or “get.”
  2. Move on to the short “i” sound, as in “sit” or “in.”
  3. Next, pronounce the double “rr” sound, which is a rolled or trilled “r” sound. It may take practice to master this sound.
  4. Finish with the “aff” sound, pronounced like the word “half” without the “h.”

Put it all together and the correct pronunciation of “giraffe” is: juh-RAFF.
