How to Pronounce “Quote”
To properly pronounce the word “quote,” follow these steps:
- Begin by pronouncing the sound “kwoh.” To make this sound, say “kwoh” with a slightly rounded mouth.
- Next, add the “w” sound after “kwoh.” This will create the sound “kwoh-w.”
- Finish the word by adding the “t” sound at the end. Pronounce it so that the tongue lightly touches the ridge behind the front teeth.
- Blend the sounds together smoothly for a natural pronunciation: “kwoh-wt.”
Remember to stress the “kwoh” part of the word slightly more than the “wt” at the end.
You can refer to the following example sentences to practice your pronunciation:
- “She read a famous quote in her speech.”
- “Please provide a quote for the project.”
- “I don’t have an accurate quote for the repair yet.”
By following these steps, you can confidently pronounce the word “quote” in any situation.
