Do say: electoral | Don't say: electorial
There’s no [i] in this word. The same rule applies to mayoral and pastoral. Do say: escape | Don't say: excape Even though the prefix ex- means “out of,” it’s not the right way to say escape. It comes from the old French word eschaper, which combines the prefix ex- with cappa, the Latin word for “cloak.” The word’s transition into and out of French makes the ex- into an es- prefix. Do say: espresso | Don't say: expresso While I can't express my love for espresso enough, this word was borrowed from Italian well after the Latin prefix ex- had developed into the es- prefix. Do say: et cetera | Don't say: excetera Latin for "and" (et) "the rest" (cetera) are actually two words that should be written separately. Do say: especially | Don't say: expecially Especially is the adverb form of the adjective especial. Some may pronounce the word with an [x] to indicate that an event is unexpected, but it’s not the same word. 32 Most Commonly Mispronounced Words In India || Learn English Standard English Pronunciation Of 25 Commonly Mispronounced Words In Everyday Conversation 25 Commonly Mispronounced English Words 😱 | Improve English Pronunciation | Speak English Clearly
