@learnativenglish: ❌ Don’t say -ous /oʊs/ in these words! When a word ends in -ous in English, it’s makes the sound -us /əs/ (the famous English schwa sound) and not /oʊs/ as it may seem. Reapeat these words out loud: delicious /dɪˈlɪʃəs/ famous /ˈfeɪməs/ serious /ˈsɪriəs/ nervous /ˈnɝvəs/ enormous /ɪˈnɔrməs/ cautious /ˈkɔʃəs/ curious /ˈkjʊriəs/ jealous /ˈdʒɛləs/ Ready to sound like a native? 💡 Follow Learn Native English for daily English tips #english #learnenglishonline #learnlanguages #pronunciation #vocabulary
