How to pronounce

anecdote

Pronouncing the word "anecdote" correctly can be tricky for non-native English speakers. However, with a few simple tips, you can be a confident speaker in no time!

The most important thing to remember is that the "e" at the end of the word is not pronounced. This means that the word is pronounced "uh-nek-doht." The "a" is pronounced as a short "uh," and the "o" is pronounced like the "o" in "hot."

The "nek" part of the word is pronounced with a flat "e," like the "e" in "bed." The "doht" part of the word is pronounced with a short "oh," like the "o" in "hot," and a hard "t" sound, like the "t" in "tap."

Remember, the "e" at the end of the word is silent. So when you say "anecdote," make sure to pronounce it "uh-nek-doht." With practice, you'll be saying it like a native speaker in no time!
