As a native English speaker, albeit Australian English I struggle to pronounce a lot of words correctly including meteorological. So don't fell bad for having trouble pronouncing a word that even native speakers struggle with,

I'm very happy with myself for getting all 15 correct. I'm a 58 year old male from Pennsylvania, USA.

You saying: I struggle with this word" It is so comforting. This was super fun. Spanish follower here 😅

Ok I’m a native English speaker, or as much as someone from Northern Ireland can be, but I found my pronunciation deteriorating the more I looked at the words. At first glance I could pronounce the words, if I didn’t think about things and had a sort of run at it. Then when I started to read things out syllable by syllable everything became suddenly disconnected and I lost myself amongst the weeds. This all makes me even more impressed by those that have English as a second (or third) language!

I'm a 75 yr old Englishman and was expecting to get them all right. I got two wrong. One was a foreign food which I've never eaten but the other was Entrepreneur ! I have always pronounced it as Au - trepeneur so many thanks for clearing that up for me.

As a native Greek, the Tzatziki isn't pronounced TSA TSI KI but TJA TJI KI (like we say Jungle) and is also a greek word!Thank you Lucy...love your videos 🙏

In my opinion, the (12) "Iota" should be prononced as it is. It's a latin word (coming from the greek) [yota or eeota] so you should prononce it good like you do for "Alpha" "Omega" etc...

Got all of them right. Indian here, who married into a white British family, and had to teach them the spelling of pigeon (they thought it was pidgeon, still not out of the 14th century in many ways).

I was mispronouncing words like 'quinoa' prior to subscribing to your channel, but this time I got 15/15 correct pronunciations. Thank you for such helpful videos. ❤

Got them all.
I have a weird sort of advantage though. I started life with a lot of medical difficulties, one of which was hearing, and once they fixed my hearing I got to have speech therapy for the first eight years of my life. I was taught to look at words critically, and just because a word was spelled a certain way doesn’t mean it would be pronounced the way it was spelled.
Sort of an early critical thinking regarding the English language! 😂
