How to pronounce

acquiesce

If you're a non-native English speaker, learning how to properly pronounce words is essential for clear communication. One word you should be familiar with is "acquiesce," which is often used in formal settings. To pronounce "acquiesce," begin by saying "ACK-kwee-ess." The accent is on the first syllable, "ACK," and the "kwee" should be drawn out slightly. The final syllable is "ess," pronounced like the letter "s." All together, it should sound like "ACK-kwee-ess" with the accent on the first syllable.

When using "acquiesce" in a sentence, remember to stress the first syllable for clarity. For example, when saying the phrase "She acquiesced to the request," emphasize the word "acquiesced" by saying "She ACK-kwee-essed to the request." Doing so will make your pronunciation more understandable to native English speakers.

Practice saying "acquiesce" out loud to become more familiar with the correct pronunciation. With enough practice, you'll be able to confidently and correctly use the word in your conversations. With clear pronunciation, you can ensure that you're being accurately understood when speaking English.
